ORDER RE: MOTIONS TO SEAL (Re: Docket Nos. 476, 490, 498, 516, 526, 528, 531, 533, 540, 541, 561, 563, 577, 582, 592, 593, 613, 632, 649, 656, 669, 676, 681, 689, 711, 721, 738, 742, 743)

PAUL S. GREWAL, Magistrate Judge.

Before the court are 29 administrative motions to seal 179 documents. "Historically, courts have recognized a `general right to inspect and copy public records and documents, including judicial records and documents.'"1Accordingly, when considering a sealing request, "a `strong presumption in favor of access' is the starting point."2Parties seeking to seal judicial records relating to dispositive motions bear the burden of overcoming the presumption with "compelling reasons" that outweigh the general history of access and the public policies favoring disclosure.3

However, "while protecting the public's interest in access to the courts, we must remain mindful of the parties' right to access those same courts upon terms which will not unduly harm their competitive interest."4Records attached to nondispositive motions therefore are not subject to the strong presumption of access.5Because the documents attached to nondispositive motions "are often unrelated, or only tangentially related, to the underlying cause of action," parties moving to seal must meet the lower "good cause" standard of Rule 26(c).6As with dispositive motions, the standard applicable to nondispositive motions requires a "particularized showing"7that "specific prejudice or harm will result" if the information is disclosed.8"Broad allegations of harm, unsubstantiated by specific examples of articulated reasoning" will not suffice.9A protective order sealing the documents during discovery may reflect the court's previous determination that good cause exists to keep the documents sealed,10but a blanket protective order that allows the parties to designate confidential documents does not provide sufficient judicial scrutiny to determine whether each particular document should remain sealed.11

In addition to making particularized showings of good cause, parties moving to seal documents must comply with the procedures established by Civ. L.R. 79-5. Pursuant to Civ. L.R. 79-5(b), a sealing order is appropriate only upon a request that establishes the document is "sealable," or "privileged or protectable as a trade secret or otherwise entitled to protection under the law." "The request must be narrowly tailored to seek sealing only of sealable material, and must conform with Civil L.R. 79-5(d)."12"Within 4 days of the filing of the Administrative Motion to File Under Seal, the Designating Party must file a declaration as required by subsection 79-5(d)(1)(A) establishing that all of the designated material is sealable."13

With these standards in mind, the courts rules on the instant motions as follows:

L.R. 79-5(d)(1)(b), and an "unreadacted version of the document" that indicates "by highlighting or other clear method, the portions of the document that have been omitted from the redacted version."

13. Civ. L.R. 79-5(e)(1). The Civil Local Rules have recently been amended shortening the time available to the designating party to file a supporting declaration from seven days to four days. As this rule change was only recently implemented the court applies the prior form of Civ. L.R. 79-5 for the purposes of this order.
