IRAQ TELECOM LIMITED, Petitioner, v. IBL BANK S.A.L. Respondent.


SEALED ORDER

DENISE COTE, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

On December 21, 2021, the petitioner Iraq Telecom Limited ("Iraq Telecom") moved for an extension of a sealing order and for an attachment in connection with correspondent relationships that respondent IBL Bank S.A.L. ("IBL") maintains with three New York-based banks. The motion for attachment does not identify any deposits owned by IBL in New York and currently in the possession of a New York bank. Nor does it address Shipping Corp, of India v. Jaldhi Overseas Pte Ltd., 585 F.3d 58, 70 (2d Cir. 2009), and its implications for this application.

Accordingly, it is hereby

ORDERED that the motion for attachment is denied.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the motion to extend the sealing of this action is granted to the following extent. This action shall remain sealed until January 4, 2022, or in the event a renewed motion for attachment is filed on January 3, 2022, until such renewed motion is decided.

SO ORDERED.
