Case No. 2:14-cv-00840-JCM-NJK
ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO
SEAL
(Docket No. 103)

16

Pending before the Court is a motion to seal several exhibits submitted in relation to briefing on

17

the pending motion for summary judgment. Docket No. 103; see also Docket No. 104. As directed by

18

the Court, Plaintiff filed a supplement regarding potential redaction. Docket No. 109. Parties seeking

19

to maintain the confidentiality of documents attached to dispositive motions must establish compelling

20

reasons for sealing those documents. See, e.g., Kamakana v. City and County of Honolulu, 447 F.3d

21

1172, 1178-79 (9th Cir. 2006). Compelling reasons exist to seal the exhibits. See, e.g., Docket No. 96

22

(finding compelling reasons to seal the Garff appraisal). Moreover, the Court finds that redaction would

23

not leave meaningful information available to the public. Cf. Foltz v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co.,

24

331 F.3d 1122, 1137 (9th Cir. 2003). Accordingly, the Court GRANTS the motion to seal.

25

IT IS SO ORDERED.
