Bernie Madoff won't have to make new friends at Rikers tonight. A federal judge, Ronald Ellis, denied a request by prosecutors that Madoff be jailed while awaiting trial. Judge Ellis did impose a couple of new conditions, ordering Madoff to compile an inventory of all items in his home and barring him from transferring property. But you can be sure that fellow residents of 133 East 64th Street won't be too pleased to hear their most infamous neighbor will be relaxing in his penthouse for the foreseeable future. The judge's full ruling is after the jump.
