Related document: #1 Complaint,..(Weiswasser, Elizabeth) [Transferred from New York Southern on 9/29/2021.]
January 25, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 86 ORDER granting #79 Letter Motion to Seal: Plaintiff's motion to file the unredacted version of its First Amended Complaint under seal and to maintain the redactions on the publicly filed version of the First Amended Complaint is hereby GRANTED. The Court grants Plaintiff's motion after applying the three-part test articulated by the Second Circuit in Lugosch v. Pyramid Co. of Onondaga, 435 F.3d 110 (2d Cir. 2006). Under this test, the Court must: (i) determine whether the documents in question are judicial documents; (ii) assess the weight of the common law presumption of access to the materials; and (iii) balance competing considerations against the presumption of access. Id. at 11920. "[T]he mere existence of a confidentiality order says nothing about whether complete reliance on the order to avoid disclosure [is] reasonable." ld. at 125-26. Nonetheless, having reviewed the proposed redactions, the Court finds that the requests are narrowly tailored to protect competitive business information, including the non-public terms of patent licensing agreements, commercial development agreements, and the subsequent amendments. As a result, the Court concludes that the sensitivity of this information outweighs the presumption of access contemplated in the third Lugosch factor. (Signed by Judge Alison J. Nathan on 1/25/2021) (jwh) [Transferred from New York Southern on 9/29/2021.]
