YKK'S NOTICE OF MOTION TO FILE MOTION AND EXHIBIT UNDER SEAL
GREGORY H. WOODS, United States District Judge.
PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that Defendants YKK Corporation et al (collectively "YKK") will move this Court, before the Honorable Gregory H. Woods at the Daniel Patrick Moynihan United States Courthouse, 500 Pearl Street, New York, NY 10007, for an order to file under seal their Memorandum in Support of YKK's Motion to Determine the Ambiguity of the term "High End Outerwear" and Exhibit B attached thereto, and for such other and further relief as this Court may deem just and proper.
Application denied. The only justification provided for the sealing of this document is the fact that it was designated as "Highly Confidential" by Plaintiffs. See Dkt. No. 658. That fact, by itself, is insufficient to overcome the presumption of public access that applies to judicial documents. Plaintiffs did not elect to present any other justification for sealing or redaction. As a result, the motion to file these documents under seal is denied. Defendants are directed to file them in unredacted form on the public docket no later than October 5, 2021.
The Clerk of Court is directed to terminate the motion pending at Dkt. No. 657.
SO ORDERED.
