defendant on the record, either orally or by a writing that is

 

personally delivered to the defendant, of the specific conditions

 

imposed and that if the defendant violates a condition of release,

 

he or she will be subject to arrest without a warrant and may have

 

his or her bail forfeited or revoked and new conditions of release

 

imposed, in addition to the penalty provided under section 3f of

 

chapter XI and any other penalties that may be imposed if the

 

defendant is found in contempt of court.

 

     (2) An order or amended order issued under subsection (1)

 

shall contain all of the following:

 

     (a) A statement of the defendant's full name.

 

     (b) A statement of the defendant's height, weight, race, sex,

 

date of birth, hair color, eye color, and any other identifying

 

information the judge or district court magistrate considers

 

appropriate.

 

     (c) A statement of the date the conditions become effective.

 

     (d) A statement of the date on which the order will expire.

 

     (e) A statement of the conditions imposed.

 

     (3) An order or amended order issued under this subsection and

 

subsection (1) may impose a condition that the defendant not

 

purchase or possess a firearm. However, if the court orders the

 

defendant to carry or wear an electronic monitoring device as a

 

condition of release as described in subsection (6), the court

 

shall also impose a condition that the defendant not purchase or

 

possess a firearm.

 

     (4) The judge or district court magistrate shall immediately

 

direct the issuing court or a law enforcement agency within the


 

jurisdiction of the court, in writing, to enter an order or amended

 

order issued under subsection (1) or subsections (1) and (3) into

 

the law enforcement information network as provided by the C.J.I.S.

 

policy council act, 1974 PA 163, MCL 28.211 to 28.215. LEIN.

 

If the order or amended order is rescinded, the judge or district

 

court magistrate shall immediately order the issuing court or law

 

enforcement agency to remove the order or amended order from the

 

law enforcement information network.LEIN.

domestic violence, or any other assaultive crime, is released under

 

this section, subsection and subsection (1), the judge or district

 

court magistrate may order the defendant to wear an electronic

 

monitoring device as a condition of release. With the informed

 

consent of the victim, the court may also order the defendant to

 

provide the victim of the charged crime with an electronic receptor

 

device capable of receiving the global positioning system

defendant that notifies the victim if the defendant is located

 

within a proximity to the victim as determined by the judge or

 

district court magistrate in consultation with the victim. The


 

victim shall also be furnished with a telephone contact with the

 

local law enforcement agency to request immediate assistance if the

 

defendant is located within that proximity to the victim. In

from which he or she would like the defendant excluded. The court

 

shall consider the victim's request and shall determine which areas

 

the defendant shall be prohibited from accessing. The court shall

 

instruct the entity monitoring the defendant's position to notify

 

the proper authorities if the defendant violates the order. In

 

determining whether to order a defendant to wear an electronic

 

monitoring device, the court shall consider the likelihood that the

 

defendant's participation in electronic monitoring will deter the

 

defendant from seeking to kill, physically injure, stalk, or

 

otherwise threaten the victim prior to trial. The victim may

 

request the court to terminate the victim's participation in the

 

monitoring of the defendant at any time. The court shall not impose

 

sanctions on the victim for refusing to participate in monitoring

 

under this subsection. A defendant described in this subsection
