MOTION FOR TRANSCRIPT OF SEALED PROCEEDINGS
Nathan Chambers, Stand-By Counsel for Defendant Ronald Yandell, requests court approval to receive a transcript of sealed proceedings and as grounds states as follows:
A hearing regarding the status of stand-by counsel was held on June 30, 2020. [Dkt. 817]. Most of the June 30, 2021 hearing was conducted in camera with only Mr. Yandell, stand-by counsel, the defense mitigation specialist, and court staff present. In order to respond to a recently filed pleading [Dkt. 853 -Sealed], undersigned counsel must review a transcript of the June 30, 2021 status hearing. Because the June 30, 2021 hearing was conducted in camera and is sealed, court approval for production of the transcript is required. Except for production to undersigned counsel, the requested transcript should be sealed to protect the same interests that required that the June 30, 2021 hearing be sealed.
Stand-by counsel has submitted the necessary funding request for production of the transcript through eVoucher.
WHEREFORE, based on the foregoing, it is respectfully requested that the Court authorize production of a transcript of the June 30, 2021 status hearing, that undersigned counsel, Nathan Chambers, be provided a copy of such transcript, and that the transcript be otherwise filed under seal.
ORDER
Having reviewed the Motion for Transcript of Seal Proceedings, the motion is GRANTED.
A transcript of the June 30, 2021 Status Conference Re Stand-By Counsel shall be produced and provided to stand-by counsel Nathan Chambers. Except for production to Mr. Chambers, any transcript of the June 30, 2021 status conference shall be filed under seal.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
