David Drumm today has made a further petition to a Boston judge to be released on bail pending his extradition proceedings, including offering to have a private 24-hour security guard at his home.
In a legal document just filed to the Massachusetts District Court, Mr Drumm's lawyer said he also wanted the judge to know that the former banker has launched another appeal against his failed bankruptcy bid.
David Drumm has also offered extended terms of bail should Judge Donald Cabell decide to release him from the custody of the US Marshals.
The former Anglo Irish Bank CEO has been held in various detention centres on the east coast of the US since his arrest almost two months ago.
Irish authorities have asked the US to extradite him to face 33 charges before the Irish courts relating to his time as CEO of Anglo Irish Bank.
A bail hearing was held on 13 November in Boston, but the judge has yet to make a decision on whether to release the former banker.
During that hearing Mr Drumm offered to subject himself to house detention and to wear an electronic tagging device.
His lawyer said Mr Drumm has arranged for "an independent, professional security services company to stand guard and monitor his activities", saying that this company would ensure his compliance "24 hours a day, seven days a week".
Mr Drumm's current employer in the US will pay for this 24-hour security guard.
In addition, more people have offered to put their homes up as security to guarantee that Mr Drumm does not pose a flight risk.
Initially, three colleagues had offered to post personal bonds of $1m and to put forward their family homes, with values ranging up to $2.8m.
His lawyer has now told the court that "approximately a dozen business colleagues, neighbours and/or friends" who were present in court for the bail hearing on 13 November, have also offered to post personal cash bonds as a guarantee.
Mr Drumm's ongoing initial appeal against his failed bankruptcy was mentioned during that bail hearing, but since then, the Judge hearing that case, Leo T Sorkin, ruled that "no mistake" had been made in the initial decision to refuse to discharge Mr Drumm from his debts totalling almost €11m, and upheld the refusal judgment.
However, late yesterday, Mr Drumm filed documents to begin a further appeal to a higher court - the US Circuit Court of Appeals.
As a result, Mr Drumm's lawyer said he wished to remind the court that "any findings or rulings concerning Mr Drumm's bankruptcy remain contested matters outside the scope of this bail hearing, and which are currently pending before the First Circuit on appeal".
His lawyer also informed the court that the difficulties they have experienced in making contact with Mr Drumm while in custody are continuing and that it is impossible for him to mount an adequate defence to the extradition proceedings in this way.
