( CNN ) -- A federal court ruled Thursday that a Montana bride accused of pushing her new husband off a cliff to his death will be released from custody as she awaits her trial . It is not clear at this time how much money Jordan Linn Graham will have to post to be released on bond or what conditions her bond will require . An order imposing conditions of her release will be filed separately . Graham has not yet been released from custody . `` Because the government concedes that Graham does not pose a risk of flight , and has not met its burden of proving by clear and convincing evidence that no condition or combination of conditions will reasonably assure the safety of the community , the court concludes that Graham must be released , '' reads the order from Judge Jeremiah Lynch . Graham appeared in the U.S. District Court of Montana in Missoula , Montana , on Wednesday for her detention hearing on a charge that she pushed her husband , Cody L. Johnson , off a cliff in July on a hiking trail in Glacier National Park . The case is being heard in federal court because the park is under federal jurisdiction . Graham is facing a second-degree murder charge ; if she is convicted , she could be sentenced to life in prison . The couple had been married for a little more than a week when Johnson fell to his death . The affidavit supporting Graham 's murder charge states that she told police she decided to travel with Johnson to the hiking trail the evening of July 7 and an argument ensued . `` Graham stated their argument intensified . At one point in time during their arguing , Graham turned and began to walk away . She stated Johnson grabbed her by the arm , '' reads the affidavit . Graham said she then turned around and removed his hand . `` Graham stated she could have just walked away , but due to her anger , she pushed Johnson with both hands in the back and as a result , he fell face first off the cliff , '' reads the affidavit . Johnson 's body was found several days later . The affidavit also states that Graham texted a friend the same night her husband died , saying in the message that she was going to talk to Johnson about having `` second thoughts . '' Graham texted , `` Oh well , I am about to talk to him . '' Her friend responded , `` I 'll pray for you guys . '' Graham then replied , `` Dead serious , if u do n't hear from me at all again tonight , something happened , '' according to a court document filed in the case . CNN 's Kyung Lah and Amanda Watts contributed to this report .
