April 24, 2023 Filing 9 MEMO ENDORSEMENT granting in part #6 Letter Motion to Seal. ENDORSEMENT: Application GRANTED IN PART. Given the highly sensitive nature of the underlying allegations, the Court finds that the redactions of the victims' names in the award is sufficient to address the relevant privacy interests while still abiding by the "presumption of access" to the public in judicial documents like arbitration awards. See Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. v. Novartis Pharma AG, 22 Civ. 4162(CM), 2022 WL 2133826 (S.D.N.Y. June 14, 2022) (collecting cases). As such, Petitioner's motion to seal the award in full is DENIED, and the motion to file a redacted final award is GRANTED. The Clerk of Court is directed to terminate the pending motion at docket number 6. (Signed by Judge Katherine Polk Failla on 4/24/2023) (rro)
