ORDER REGARDING SEALING PORTIONS OF COURT FILE
THE COURT, having reviewed the various motions identified below, and having considered argument by the parties, hereby finds and orders as follows:
D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.2(A) provides that, on a motion and appropriate showing, a judicial officer may order that a paper filed in a case shall be sealed.
On May 11, 2011, Respondent/Arbitration Respondent Citigroup Global Markets Inc. ("Respondent") filed a Motion to Vacate an Arbitration Award ("Motion to Vacate")(Doc. 16) and filed an Affidavit in Support of that Motion to Vacate. (Doc. 14.) Respondent also filed the record for the underlying arbitration with this Court (Doc. 15, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 31) as Exhibits to the Affidavit in Support, and filed an unopposed motion to seal that record (Doc. 13.) Objections to the sealing of the record were later filed (Doc. 36 and 37).
Petitioners Gerald D. Hosier, individually and as Trustee of the Gerald D. Hosier , u/a/d 10/40/99; Brush Creek Capital, LLC and Jerry Murdock Jr. ("Petitioners") thereafter filed a
Response to the Motion to Vacate ("Response")(Doc. 53). In connection with that Response, Petitioners also filed various Exhibits under seal. (Doc. 54 and 55.)
Various Motions were filed by the Parties in which the Parties sought to seal certain documents or to file other documents in redacted form. (See Doc. 13, 38, 44, 45 and 53.) Thereafter, Petitioners and Respondent (collectively "the Parties") reached an agreement to unseal certain documents. The Parties further agreed that they would not oppose each other's requests to file certain documents in redacted form and to re-file other documents under seal. (See Doc. 61, 62 and 64.)
On September 2, 2011, the Court held a hearing on the various sealing motions, and granted the Motion to Seal Certain Exhibits to the Motion to Vacate (Doc. 45). The Court further ordered the parties to re-file certain documents in redacted form and permitted the parties to seal other documents.
In accordance with the Minute Order of September 2, 2011 (Doc. 72), Respondent re-filed its Exhibits in Support of the Motion to Vacate and Petitioners re-filed their Exhibits in connection with the Response to the Motion to Vacate.
THE COURT orders that the following filings shall remain public, as currently filed by the Parties:
