AMENDED ORDER SEALING DOCUMENTS AS SET FORTH IN GOVERNMENT'S NOTICE
HONORABLE JOHN A. MENDEZ UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT JUDGE.
Pursuant to Local Rule 141(b) and based upon the representation contained in the government's Request to Seal, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the government's ex parte motion pertaining to defendant Jacob Harding-Abeyta, and government's Request to Seal shall be SEALED until further order of this Court.
The Court has considered the factors set forth in Oregonian Publishing Co. v. U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon, 920 F.2d 1462 (9th Cir. 1990). The Court finds that, for the reasons stated in the government's request, sealing the government's motion serves a compelling interest. The Court further finds that, in the absence of closure, the compelling interests identified by the government would be harmed.
In light of the public filing of its request to seal, the Court further finds that there are no additional alternatives to sealing the government's motion that would adequately protect the compelling interests identified by the government.
The prior order, filed at ECF No. 64, is hereby VACATED.
