AIRBORNE SYSTEMS NORTH

“When ruling on a motion to seal court records, the district court must balance the

18

competing interests of the public and the party seeking to seal judicial records” and “must

19

articulate a factual basis for each compelling reason to seal.” In re Midland Nat. Life Ins.

20

Co. Annuity Sales Practices Litig., 686 F.3d 1115, 1119 (9th Cir. 2012). Airborne asks the

21

Court to seal eight exhibits attached to its summary judgment motion. The Cavner’s don’t

22

oppose. The Court agrees that since these exhibits contain ITAR-content related to

23

confidential information about American military parachutes, compelling reasons exist to seal

24

these exhibits. The motion to seal is granted.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
