UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA OAKLAND DIVISION

DISTRICT,

Case No: C 10-3950 SBA ORDER Docket 28, 47

Plaintiff, vs. J.S., a minor, et al., Defendants.

This matter comes before the Court on the following matters: (1) Defendant J.S.'s Motion for Administrative Relief to Protect Defendant's Right to Privacy (Dkt. 28); and (2) Plaintiff Ravenswood City School District's Administrative Motion to File Under Seal (Dkt. 47). In his administrative motion, J.S. requests that the Court permit him to file the declaration of his putative guardian ad litem, identified as "T.H.," under seal. Said declaration has been proffered in support of J.S.'s motion to have T.H. appointed as his guardian ad litem. See Dkt. 27. However, the Court denied J.S.'s motion, without prejudice, on the ground that his application was facially deficient. (Dkt. 53.) As such, J.S.'s motion to seal T.H.'s declaration is denied as moot. Plaintiff's motion seeks leave to file Exhibits B and C to its motion for preliminary injunction (Dkt. 22) and page 5 and Exhibit C to the complaint (Dkt. 1) under seal in order to maintain the anonymity of J.S. and his putative guardian ad litem. (Dkt. 28.) There being no opposition to Plaintiff's motion, and finding good cause, the Court grants Plaintiff's motion to seal the aforementioned documents. Accordingly,
