Case No. 1:12−CV−02026 AWI−JLT
ORDER RE: JOINT NOTICE OF
REQUEST TO SEAL DOCUMENTS
REGARDING OPPOSITION TO
UNITED STATES’ MOTION TO
DISMISS
Local Rule 141

18

The parties filed a joint notice of request to seal documents in connection with Plaintiff

19

Gregory Edison’s opposition to the United States’ motion to dismiss. Based on the joint agreement of

20

all parties to the action, the parties request that additional pages to the contracts identified as Exhibits

21

“A” and “B” to the Declaration of Doug Martz (Docket Nos. 43-4 & 43.5) be filed under seal for

22

purposes of the United States’ motion to dismiss which is set for hearing on June 17, 2013.

23

The Court does not seal case documents or exhibits from public view without good cause.

24

Being that the applicability of the contracts identified as Exhibits “A” and “B” to the Declaration of

25

Doug Martz are at issue in the United States’ motion to dismiss, the Court finds that these documents

26

should be filed under seal. It is the practice of this Court to maintain case documents under seal until

27

they are ordered unsealed by the Court. Accordingly, the Court shall grant the parties joint request

28

for an order to file documents under seal. The Clerk of Court shall be directed to file under seal any
