MOTION TO PARTIALLY UNSEAL AND INITIATE ELECTRONIC FILING AND ORDER
HON. KANDIS A. WESTMORE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
On March 28, 2024, the United States obtained an Indictment containing four counts against two defendants. The Indictment was sealed at the government's request because, at the time, both of the charged defendants had not yet been arrested. One of the defendants has since been arrested and made his initial appearance in the Northern District of California on June 17, 2024. In order to facilitate the administration of the case, the United States now moves to partially unseal the Indictment as to MICLESU only. Attached here as Exhibit A is the Indictment with proposed redactions. The redacted information relates to the defendant who is not yet in custody. The redactions will serve to protect against the risk of flight and the potential destruction of evidence. The redactions will also ensure agents safety in the execution of the outstanding arrest warrant.
The United States respectfully requests that the Court direct the Clerk's Office to file the redacted
ORDER
Based upon the motion of the United States and for good cause shown, the United States' motion to partially unseal the Indictment is GRANTED. The Clerk's Office is hereby ordered to file the redacted Indictment on ECF and designate the case for electronic filing.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
