ORDER granting14 Letter Motion to Seal; terminating15 Letter Motion for Leave to File Document. Application GRANTED. Based on a review of the proposed redactions in the Complaint and its attachment, see ECF Nos. 15-1, 15-2, 15-3, 15-4, the Court finds that the proposed redactions are narrowly tailored to further interests that are sufficient to outweigh the presumption in favor of public access. Accordingly, the application is granted, subject to reconsideration in the event that any party or third party files a motion to unseal a particular document or documents. Plaintiff shall file the redacted version of the Complaint and its attachment on the public docket within two business days. The Clerk of Court is directed to place ECF No. 1 under seal (i.e., with viewing restricted to the Court and parties), and to terminate ECF Nos. 14 and 15. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Jesse M. Furman on 4/26/2024) (mml) Modified on 4/29/2024 (mml)
