Trial attorney Pierce O’Donnell, fresh out of federal prison, has asked to serve his next four months’ confinement at home, instead of in a halfway house, so that he can undergo hip replacement surgery.
O’Donnell, who lives in Santa Barbara, Calif., reported to a halfway house in Hollywood on July 16 after serving 60 days in federal prison. O’Donnell, of O’Donnell & Associates in Los Angeles, pleaded guilty to reimbursing employees who in 2003 made $26,000 in donations to the failed presidential campaign of former U.S. Senator John Edwards (D-N.C.). He was released on July 3 from a minimum-security prison in Lompoc, Calif., but his sentence requires that he serve another year under supervised release, including the halfway house stint.
