May 26, 2026 Opinion or Order Filing 28 ORDER FILED. Lisa B. Fitzgerald, Appellate Commissioner. Appellants filed a notice (Docket Entry No. 23) of intent to file publicly the opening brief and Volume 5 of the excerpts of record. See 9th Cir. R. 27-13(f). Although no other party has filed a motion to maintain the documents under seal, an independent review suggests that some of the documents may warrant sealing. Therefore, the clerk will maintain under provisional seal the opening brief (Docket Entry No. 24) and Volume 5 of the excerpts of record (Docket Entry No. 25), subject to further consideration by the merits panel. Within 21 days of this order, appellant must submit for public filing a redacted version of the opening brief that redacts any material from Volume 5 of the excerpts of record. The page numbering and citations in the public brief must remain the same as in the sealed brief. The existing briefing schedule remains in effect. [Entered: 05/26/2026 11:04 AM]
