Legal Question in Criminal Law in Wyoming

stipulations on bail

My stepson is out of jail on a 500k cash bond for second degree murder. His trial is not until March of 2008. One of his stipulations is to be at a stated residence by 8:30 p.m. every night until 5:30 a.m. every morning. Another one is random drug testing at his (our) expense. He is not yet convicted of any crimes. This seems a violation of his rights. Are these stipulations legal?
