ORDER GRANTING 6 Motion for Leave to File Documents Under Seal filed by RESPONDENTS. According to the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, "the common law presumes that the public has a right of access to judicial materials." In re Avandia, 924 F.3d 662, 672 (3d Cir. 2019). To overcome this presumptive right of access to judicial materials, "[t]he party seeking to overcome the presumption of access bears the burden of showing 'that the interest in secrecy outweighs the presumption.'" Id. (quoting Bank of Am. Nat'l Trust & Sav. Ass'n v. Hotel Rittenhouse Assocs., 800 F.2d 339, 344 (3d Cir. 1986)). That is, "[t]he movant must show 'that the material is the kind of information that courts will protect and that disclosure will work a clearly defined and serious injury to the party seeking closure.'" Id. (quoting Miller v. Ind. Hosp., 16 F.3d 549, 551 (3d Cir. 1994)). And, "[b]road allegations of harm, bereft of specific examples or articulated reasoning, are insufficient" to meet this burden. Id. at 673 (quoting In re Cendant Corp., 260 F.3d 183, 194 (3d Cir. 2001)). Here, Respondents seek leave to file certain exhibits attached to their forthcoming response to the 1 Petition under seal, averring that the exhibits contain information protected by federal immigration regulations. The Court finds that Respondents have demonstrated that sealing the exhibits is warranted to protect the information contained therein. Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the 6 Motion is GRANTED and that Respondents shall file the exhibits to their forthcoming response to the 1 Petition under seal. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Respondents are not required to file redacted versions of the exhibits on the docket. Signed by Judge Christy Criswell Wiegand on 8/6/2026.
