UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
MIDDLE DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA
JUNE MEDICAL SERVICES, LLC, et al.

CIVIL ACTION
NO. 14-525-JWD-RLB

VERSUS
COURTNEY PHILLIPS, in her official capacity as
Secretary of the Louisiana Department of Health
ORDER
Before the Court is Plaintiffs’ Motion to File Proposed Redactions Pursuant to the
Magistrate Judge’s Order (ECF No. 397). (R. Doc. 436). The motion is opposed. (R. Doc. 441).
I.

Background
On January 28, 2021, the undersigned issued an Order (R. Doc. 397) on the Motion to

Maintain Documents Under Seal filed by Plaintiffs, June Medical Services, LLC, et al. (R. Doc.
344).
In pertinent part, the Order required Plaintiff to submit proposed redactions to Defendant
with respect to 227 documents (R. Docs. 168-4 through 168-11, 197-1 through 197-32, 203-1
through 203-18, 205, 205-1 through 205-9, 237, and 237-1 through 237-158) to the extent
necessary. (R. Doc. 297 at 24-25, 27).1 The Order required the parties to meet and confer with
respect to Plaintiffs’ proposed redactions and, if any disagreements remained, allowed Plaintiffs
to file a motion identifying the parties’ disagreements and agreements.
On February 25, 2021, Plaintiffs proposed redactions to 94 documents, stating that they
identified 133 documents that could be unsealed without further redaction. (R. Doc. 437-1 at 2-3;
see R. Doc. 436 at 6-7 n.4).

Plaintiffs have filed a Motion to Review and Objections to the Magistrate Judge’s Order (“Motion to Review”),
which concerns, among other things, redactions to documents not at issue in this motion. (R. Doc. 405).

Case 3:14-cv-00525-JWD-RLB

Document 445

05/13/21 Page 2 of 13

On March 8, 2021, Defendant objected to the proposed redactions, particularly to the
redactions of (1) the Plaintiff physicians’ educational and professional backgrounds, (2) the
names of deceased Louisiana abortion providers, and (3) malpractice incidents, complications,
and licensing actions pertaining to both Plaintiff physicians and non-party healthcare providers.
(R. Doc. 437-2 at 2-3). Defendant provided a list identifying their specific objections to
Plaintiffs’ proposed redactions. (R. Doc. 437-2 at 4-8). In the list, Defendant identified 36
documents to which they had no objection given that the proposed redactions were consistent
with the January 28, 2021 Order. (See R. Doc. 436 at 7 n.5).
On March 11, 2021, the parties met and conferred with respect to their disputes regarding
Plaintiffs’ proposed redactions. (See R. Doc. 437-3). On March 18, 2021, Plaintiffs agreed to the
unsealing of 8 additional documents without further redaction, bringing the total to 141
documents. (R. Doc. 437-3 at 2; see R. Doc. 436 at 9 n.7).
On March 25, 2021, Defendant agreed to Plaintiffs’ redactions to an additional 6
documents at issue, bringing the total of agreed-upon redactions to 42 documents. (R. Doc. 4374; see R. Doc. 436 at 9 n.7).2
The instant motion followed. (R. Doc. 436). Consistent with the parties’ communications,
Plaintiffs identify 141 documents that the parties have agreed can be unsealed without further
redaction. (R. Doc. 436 at 6-7 n.4, 9 n.7). Plaintiffs also identify 42 documents that the parties
have agreed can be unsealed with certain redactions proposed by Plaintiffs (R. Doc. 436 at 7 n.5,
9 n.7).

Defendant agreed to Plaintiffs’ modified redactions to two documents (R. Docs. 94-13 and 104-12) that are
included in Plaintiffs’ Motion to Review. These documents are not at issue in this motion. Defendant also identified
certain redaction errors and asserted their continued disagreement with redactions of the Plaintiff physician’s
educational and professional backgrounds, the identity of June Medical’s owner, and redactions pertaining to a nonparty healthcare provider identified as Dr. Doe W. Plaintiffs represent that Defendant raised issues with respect to 5
documents in error because these objections are inconsistent with the body of the letter or were otherwise already
addressed by Plaintiffs’ revised redactions. (R. Doc. 436 at 10 n.9). In opposing the instant motion, Defendant does
not refute this representation.

Case 3:14-cv-00525-JWD-RLB

Document 445

Plaintiffs identify 35 documents remaining to which the parties have not agreed to further
redactions, and argue that their proposed redactions are merited. (R. Doc. 436 at 10-17).
Plaintiffs have submitted a chart detailing their proposed redactions to these 35 documents to
which Defendant continues to object. (R. Doc. 436-1; see R. Doc. 436 at 10 n.11). Plaintiffs also
identify 9 documents that they have represent they have redacted in accordance with Defendant’s
objection pertaining to education and professional backgrounds, including the removal of
redactions of “dates associated with Plaintiff Physicians’ medical school, internship and
residency, and hospital affiliation.” (R. Doc. 436 at 10 n.10). Plaintiffs consider these revisions
to be “agreed upon,” but does not indicated what redactions may remain.
In opposition, Defendant argues that Plaintiffs have not met their burden of establishing
that the additional redactions are merited given the appropriate legal standards governing the
sealing of judicial documents and the findings of the January 28, 2021 Order. (R. Doc. 441).
While Defendant does not specifically object to the revised redactions to the 9 documents
discussed above, the Court will include these documents in the category of disputed documents.
Defendant clearly disputes the redaction of any education and professional background
information, and Plaintiffs have not identified any specific redactions outside of these areas that
were made in the revised revisions.
Accordingly, the Court will address whether and to what extent these 44 documents are
subject to being unsealed.3

The chart attached to Defendant’s March 25, 2021 letter identifies 46 documents in dispute. (R. Doc. 437-4 at 5-7).
Two of the documents are included on the chart in error. Defendant agrees to Plaintiff’s modified redactions to the
first of these documents (R. Doc. 168-9) in the body of its letter. (R. Doc. 437-4 at 1). Plaintiff had already agreed to
the unsealing of the second document (R. Doc. 205-6). (R. Doc. 437-3 at 2). Defendants raise no specific objections
regarding these documents in the opposition. The remaining 44 documents on the chart include the 35 documents
identified by Plaintiffs as in dispute (R. Doc. 436 at 10 n.11) and the 9 documents with revised redactions that
Plaintiff claims are consistent with Defendant’s objections (R. Doc. 436 at 10 n.10).

Law and Analysis
A.

Legal Standards

As a starting point, “[i]t is clear that the courts of this country recognize a general right to
inspect and copy public records and documents, including judicial records and documents.”
Nixon v. Warner Communications, Inc., 435 U.S. 589, 597 (1978). However, “the right to inspect
and copy judicial records is not absolute,” and “[e]very court has supervisory power over its own
records and files.” Nixon, 435 U.S. at 598. See also Vantage Health Plan, Inc. v. Willis-Knighton
Med. Ctro., 913 F.3d 443, 450-51 (5th Cir. 2019) (“The decision whether to allow public access
to court records ‘is one best left to the sound discretion of the trial court, a discretion to be
exercised in light of the relevant facts and circumstances of the particular case.’” (internal
citations omitted)). As noted in Bradley on behalf of AJW v. Ackal, 954 F.3d 216, 225 (5th Cir.
2020), “[t]his circuit has not assigned particular weight to the presumption [of public access to
judicial records]… Nor has this court interpreted the presumption in favor of access as creating a
burden of proof.”
Pursuant to General Order 2019-4, thirty days after final disposition of an action, “all
sealed pleadings and other papers shall be placed in the case record unless a District Judge or
Magistrate Judge, upon motion and for good cause shown, orders that the pleading or other paper
be maintained under seal.” As such, the Court’s general order puts the onus on the party seeking
to maintain such items under seal to make an appropriate showing. This is consistent with similar
treatment in our sister districts4 and also consistent with the Fifth Circuit’s admonition that “[i]n

124114, at *2 (E.D. Tex. Jan. 9, 2013); Torres-Montalvo v. Keith, 2011 WL 5023271, at *2 (S.D. Tex. Oct. 17,
2011).

any case, “[t]he district court’s discretion to seal the record of judicial proceedings is to be
exercised charily.” Bradley, 954 F.3d at 225 (citing cases).
The balance of considerations that justified the sealing of certain documents and
information during the pendency of this litigation is not the same as applied upon final
disposition. Thus, it is prudent to re-assess those considerations upon final disposition when a
party makes a timely motion requesting continued, essentially permanent sealing of court records
from the public eye.
In the January 28, 2021 Order, the Court evaluated the foregoing concerns in finding
“good cause to order the identity of Plaintiff physicians to remain sealed,” which specifically
includes “the actual identity of the Plaintiff physicians by name” and other identifying
information that may indirectly lead to their identification, i.e., “SSN, driver’s license number,
telephone number, residential address, marital status, and any familial relations.” (R. Doc. 397 at
17). In so holding, the Court observed that the Plaintiff physicians’ identities would add “very
little, if anything, to the pool of public information,” which includes publicly available judicial
decisions providing “the physicians’ practice areas, board certifications, age and years in
practice, clinic association, clinic practice schedules, types of abortion provided, gestational ages
at which abortions provided, approximate daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly abortions
performed by number and percentage, summaries of admitting privileges and applications
(including excerpts of communications), training, and personal accounts of complications
(without patient-identifying information).” (R. Doc. 397 at 16) (citing R. Doc. 274 at 24-28; June
Med. Servs. L.L.C. v. Gee, 905 F.3d 787, 793-801 (5th Cir. 2018); June Medical Servs., LLC, et
al. v. Russo, 140 S.Ct. 2103 (2020)). Importantly, the Order provided that “information about the
Plaintiff physicians that appears in public decisions as outlined above, as well as any other

5

similar information,” do not merit remaining sealed in this action. (R. Doc. 397 at 17)
(emphasis added).
It is within this context that the Court must now decide whether any of the 227
documents identified in the Order merit additional redactions.
B.

Documents the Parties Agree to Unseal

The parties do not dispute the unsealing of 141 of the 227 documents at issue without
further redactions.5 Having considered the record, and there being no objection to the unsealing
of these documents without further redactions, the Court will order the Clerk’s Office to unseal
those documents as required under General Order 2019-4.
C.

Documents the Parties Agree to File Into the Record with Redactions

The parties have agreed to certain additional redactions pertaining to 42 of the 227
documents at issue.6 The Court has reviewed the redactions proposed by Plaintiff and the parties’
agreements with respect to these redactions. The Court finds that the proposed redactions are
narrowly tailored to preclude the identification of the Plaintiff physicians and are otherwise
consistent with the January 28, 2021 Order. The Court finds good cause for the additional
redacted information to remain under seal. Accordingly, the Court will order Plaintiffs to file
these documents, as redacted, into the record. The original documents will remain filed under
seal.

These 141 documents are as follows: R. Docs. 168-11, 197-6, 197-8, 197-10, 197-11, 197-14, 197-18 through 19722, 197-27, 197-28, 197-30, 197-31, 197-32, 203-1 through 203-8, 203-10, 203-11, 203-13, 203-16, 203-17, 203-18,

Documents with Proposed Redactions in Dispute

Plaintiff’s proposed redactions with respect to the remaining 44 of the 227 documents are
in dispute.7 Plaintiffs represent that they “have taken great care to limit their redactions to
information about the Plaintiff Physicians that is not already public, or of the kind already made
public, even as Plaintiffs have agreed to the State’s request to publicly reveal some non-public
information, including the names and dates of Plaintiff Physicians’ medical school alma maters,
internship or residency programs, and hospital affiliations.” (R. Doc. 436 at 12). The disputes
regarding the remaining documents pertain to Plaintiffs’ proposed redactions of (1) Plaintiff
physician’s professional and educational backgrounds, including medical malpractice actions,
and (2) information pertaining to the identity of non-party healthcare providers, including the
signature of June Medical’s owner, the identity of physician references on admitting privileges
applications, and the identity of a non-party abortion provider identified by Plaintiffs as Dr. W.
1.

Plaintiff Physicians’ Professional and Educational Backgrounds

In the first category of redactions, Plaintiffs seek to redact from the record “other
information Plaintiffs believe has never been publicly disclosed about the Plaintiff Physicians
and that is not at all similar to the information contained within the public record, such as
Plaintiff Physicians’ high schools, undergraduate institutions, military service, and details
regarding awards and leadership positions in professional organizations.” (R. Doc. 436 at 13).
In opposition, Defendant argues that the proposed redactions of Plaintiff physicians’
professional and educational backgrounds are inappropriate because their qualifications were a
central issue in the merits of this litigation, the Court has already found that similar information

7

These 44 documents are as follows: R. Docs. 168-4, 168-5, 168-6, 168-10, 197-1, 197-2, 197-3, 197-5, 197-7, 1979, 197-13, 197-16, 197-17, 197-24, 237-16, 237-33, 327-18, 237-41, 237-43, 237-48, 237-53, 237-54, 237-56, 23757, 237-59, 237-88, 237-100, 237-101, 237-105, 237-106, 237-107, 237-112, 237-113, 237-139, and 237-156 (R.
Doc. 436 at 10 n.11); and R. Docs. 197-25, 237-17, 237-19, 237-31, 237-42, 237-44, 237-47, 237-103, and 237-110
(see R. Doc. 436 at 10 n.10).

7

Case 3:14-cv-00525-JWD-RLB

Document 445

05/13/21 Page 8 of 13

must be unsealed, and much of the information sought to be redacted has been already discussed
in testimony in open court. (R. Doc. 441 at 5-9).
The Court has reviewed Plaintiffs’ proposed redactions with respect to the Plaintiff
physicians’ professional and education backgrounds. The proposed redactions include general
biographical information, mostly appearing on admitting privilege applications and related
documents, such as: high school names and graduation years; undergraduate institution name,
location, and dates of attendance; undergraduate degrees; education awards; previous
employment not related to abortion practice; class rank; professional affiliations; years of
practice, taking boards, and joining provisional organizations; familial status; city of residence;
and medical malpractice information. (See generally R. Doc. 436-1). Plaintiffs are concerned that
the disclosure of such information, as well as docket numbers or other details regarding
malpractice actions involving the Plaintiff Physicians, “could easily be used to deduce the
Plaintiff Physicians’ identities.” (R. Doc. 436 at 13).
The Court has acknowledged “that an astute individual would be able to aggregate public
information in this litigation to deduce a reasonable or potentially accurate guess as to the
identity of one or more of the Plaintiff physicians.” (R. Doc. 397 at 15). That an internet sleuth
could piece together information to discern the identity of a Plaintiff physician does not,
however, necessarily merit the sealing of such information from public view. The Court agrees
with Defendant that Plaintiffs’ qualifications – including their professional and educational
backgrounds – are central to the issues raised in this litigation. Furthermore, similar general
biographical information has been publicly revealed in the course of this and similar litigation
that the Court has already concluded may not remain under seal. (See R. Doc. 397 at 16-17).
Notably, Plaintiffs have not identified any unique educational “award” or “leadership position”
in professional associations that would lead to the identification of any of the Plaintiff
8

Case 3:14-cv-00525-JWD-RLB

Document 445

05/13/21 Page 9 of 13

physicians.8 Similarly, Plaintiffs have not met their burden of establishing good cause that
information with respect to publicly filed medical malpractice documents merit redaction outside
of specific areas of identifying information already identified by the Court.
The Court has identified one sub-category of information in Plaintiffs’ proposed
redactions (i.e., medical license numbers) that are a specific form of information that may
indirectly lead to a Plaintiff physician’s identification, similar to social security numbers, driver’s
license numbers, and telephone numbers. It appears that Plaintiffs have proposed redactions to at
least two instances where medical license numbers appear in admitting privileges applications.
While the Court finds no basis for the general redaction of medical license information,
including the states of licensure, any specific medical license numbers that appear in the 35
documents at issue are subject to redaction.
Accordingly, the Court will provide Plaintiffs with the opportunity to redact any medical
license numbers from the 35 documents at issue regardless of whether these medical license
numbers were previously identified by Plaintiffs. Plaintiffs have not met their burden, however,
of establishing good cause for the redaction of any other disputed information with respect to the
Plaintiff physicians’ professional and education backgrounds.
2.

Non-Party Healthcare Providers

In the second category of redactions, Plaintiffs seek to redact from the record information
pertaining to non-party healthcare providers, “specifically physicians who served as references
for Plaintiff Physicians’ admitting privileges applications, the signature of a clinic owner, and
Dr. W, who is a living non-party physician who has provided abortion care in Louisiana.” (R.
Doc. 436 at 14). Plaintiffs argue that this information pertaining to non-party healthcare

8

For example, had Plaintiffs identified a specific medical award or prize that is only awarded to a single individual
any given year, then the Court would be inclined to redact the award and the date of its receipt. Plaintiffs provide no
such details with respect to any proposed redactions in their motion.

9

Case 3:14-cv-00525-JWD-RLB

Document 445

05/13/21 Page 10 of 13

providers should be redacted in light of the January 28, 2021 Order, particularly a section titled
“Identity of Plaintiff Physicians and Non-Party Healthcare Providers,” which solely detailed
what information must remain under seal for the purposes of protecting the identities of the
Plaintiff physicians. (R. Doc. 397 at 10-18). To be clear, the Court found “good cause to order
the identity of Plaintiff physicians to remain sealed,” but made no such finding with respect to
non-party healthcare providers. (R. Doc. 397 at 17).
A.

The Signature of June Medical’s Owner

Plaintiffs seek to redact the signature of June Medical’s owner and managing member
appearing on duplicate copies of the same check. (R. Doc. 436 at 15-16; see R. Docs. 197-1 at 3,
237-16). Plaintiffs broadly argue that they “have a strong interest in maintaining the clinic
owner’s confidentiality” because it raises “recognized safety risks, by publicly associating the
clinic owner to this lawsuit for the first time, but also raises additional concerns of fraud and
forgery.” (R. Doc. 436 at 15). Plaintiffs suggest that the redaction of this individual’s signature is
consistent with the privacy concerns raised in Rule 5.2(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure. (R. Doc. 436 at 16 n.14).
In opposition, Defendant represents that this individual’s identity is public knowledge, as
“the managing member has publicly lobbied Congress on abortion issues, regulatory tweets
about abortion rights, and is listed as a donor on the website of the Center for Reproductive
Rights.” (R. Doc. 441 at 9). While Defendant further represents that the issue of redacting a
“signature” was not raised in the meet-and-confer process, Defendant has no dispute to such a
redaction so long as it is overlaid with the individual’s name. (R. Doc. 441 at 10).
The Court finds that the inclusion of this signature on a financial instrument in the record
raises significant concerns regarding fraud and forgery, and that the redaction of this signature is
consistent with the privacy concerns raised in Rule 5.2. Defendant has not presented any
10

Case 3:14-cv-00525-JWD-RLB

Document 445

05/13/21 Page 11 of 13

argument that the signature of this individual on this check has any relevance. There is no reason
to doubt the validity of the check. The public interest in this signature is non-existent. Regardless
of whether this individual’s name appears somewhere else in the record, and with no finding that
this individual’s identity should be shielded from disclosure, the Court will allow for the
redaction of these two signatures in light of the fact that they are signatures on financial
instruments. The addition of any overlaid name is not required.
B.

The Identity of Referring Physicians and Dr. W

Plaintiffs also seek to redact the identities of physicians who served as references on
Plaintiff Physicians’ admitting privileges applications and a living non-party abortion provider
identified as Dr. W. Plaintiff suggests that general concerns for the safety and well-being of these
individuals merits a finding that their identities should be redacted in this action.
Again, the Court made no specific finding that the identities of non-party healthcare
providers merit being filed under seal in this action. Plaintiffs have not identified any specific
potential threats or harassment that these individuals, who did not seek any relief in this lawsuit,
may face if their identities are unsealed in this action. Plaintiffs have also not identified how the
identities of these non-party healthcare providers would lead to the identification of Plaintiff
physicians.
With respect to Dr. W, his identity as an abortion provider is well-known and publicly
accessible, and the documents sought to be redacted include a public consent order issued by the
Louisiana State Board of Medical Examiners. (See R. Doc. 197-13 at 15-22, R. Doc. 237-105 at
15-22). The Court finds no basis for redacting this individual’s identity in the documents filed
into the record of this lawsuit.

Conclusion
Based on the foregoing,
