Page 3 | 6. Motion Practice
Designated Material filed with the Court is sealed only upon motion, with no automatic sealing; specific procedures apply based on whether the Filing Party is the Designating Party.
14. “[D]isplacing the high bar for sealing orders with the low bar for protective orders . . . undercuts the public’s right of access and thus undermines the public’s faith in our justice system.” Binh Hoa Le v. Exeter Fin. Corp., 990 F.3d 410, 421 (5th Cir. 2021). Accordingly, Designated Material filed with the Court will be sealed by the Court only upon motion and in accordance with applicable law. This Order does not provide for the automatic sealing of such Designated Material. If it becomes necessary to file Designated Material with the Court, the Designating Party must move to file the Designated Material under seal, even if the Designating Party is not the party who seeks to file such Designated Material with the Court (the “Filing Party”). a. When the Designating Party and the Filing Party are one in the same, that party must file a motion to seal contemporaneously with filing the Designated Material under seal. The motion to seal must undertake a “line-by-line balancing of the public’s common law right of access against the interests favoring nondisclosure.” Le, 990 F.3d at 419 (quotation omitted). Designated Material will remain sealed while a ruling on the motion to seal is pending. b. Whenever the Filing Party is not the Designating Party, the Filing Party must confer with the Designating Party as to whether the Designating Party will withdraw the designation. If the Designating Party refuses to withdraw the designation, the Filing Party may file the Designated Material under seal, but must provide a certificate of conference reflecting the Designating Party’s position. Once the Designated Material is filed under seal, the Designating Party has seven days to file a motion to seal. Designated Material will be automatically unsealed if a motion to seal is not filed within seven days of the Designated Material being filed under seal.
