Clemens v. Morales

Filing 22

ORDER granting 21 Motion to Seal Document Exhibits D and E. Signed by Magistrate Judge G. R. Smith on 4/5/17. (wwp)

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF GEORGIA
SAVANNAH DIVISION
JAMES CLEMENS,
Petitioner,
v.

CV417-040

JOSE MORALES, Warden,
Respondent.

ORDER
Respondent moves under Fed. R. Civ. P. 5.2(d) to file under seal
two documents that “are not in the public domain and are from files
whose contents are ‘confidential’ under state law.” Doc. 21 at 1. The
documents -- a copy of petitioner’s Corrections file notating receipt of
the Illinois “warrant of arrest” and a copy of an order from petitioner’s
State Board of Pardons and Paroles file -- do not fit Rule 5.2(a)’s
criteria, but the Court can, and now does, GRANT the motion under
Local Rule 79.7.

SO ORDERED, this 5th day of April, 2017.
