In a letter of December 29, 2020, defendant Frank Esposito
requested that the Court endorse a Stipulation and Proposed
Order regarding the redaction and sealing of certain
electronically filed documents in the above-captioned case.
Pursuant to Section 8 of this Court’s Individual Practices,
motions for approval of sealed or redacted filings in civil
cases must be filed in public view, must explain the particular
reasons for seeking to file that information under seal, and
should not include confidential information sought to be filed
under seal.

Supporting papers must be separately filed

electronically and may be filed under seal or redacted only to
the extent necessary to safeguard information sought to be filed
under seal.
