On May 3, 2010, U.S. District Judge [[Victoria A. Roberts]] ordered all nine defendants to be released on [[Bail bond|bond]], over the objection of federal prosecutors. "The order is silent as to any financial aspects of the bonds. In federal court, defendants are normally released on $10,000 unsecured bonds, meaning they do not have to put up any money."{{According to whom|date=June 2019}} The court ruled that five of the Hutaree remain in custody. The ruling applied to David Stone Sr., Joshua Stone, Joshua Clough, Michael Meeks, and Thomas Piatek. Four other members had already been released on bond. The court ordered that they be placed on electronic monitors.

In addition to being confined to their homes, outside of time spent away from work (or while seeking employment as per standard federal pretrial release conditions), some additional requirements were placed on individual defendants, for example, alleged leader David Brian Stone Sr. was barred from having any contact with Michigan-based militia activist [[Mark Koernke]].{{Cn|date=August 2023}}

Prosecutors added charges in June 2012 stating that David Stone Sr., Joshua Stone, and Clough illegally possessed automatic rifles and that David Stone Sr., David Stone Jr., and Joshua Stone possessed unregistered firearms, charging them with violations of the [[National Firearms Act]]. Clough had earlier entered a guilty plea in December 2011 to a weapons law violation in a plea agreement, with leniency suggested in light of his cooperative testimony in the case. David Stone Sr. and Joshua Stone eventually later entered a guilty pleas in March 2012 to some NFA violations as part of a plea agreement.<ref name="Kelleher">{{Cite news |last=Kelleher |first=James B. |date=March 29, 2012 |title=Final Hutaree defendants plead guilty to weapons charges |work=[[Reuters]] |url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-crime-militia-idUSBRE82S0RV20120329 |access-date=August 9, 2023}}</ref>
