ORDER SEALING SENTENCING DOCUMENT
GARLAND E. BURRELL, JR., Senior District Judge.
Pursuant to Local Rule 141(b), and based upon the representation contained in the United States' Request to Seal, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the United States' two-page supplement to its sentencing memorandum, pertaining to defendant Antonio Guadalupe Lopez-Garcia, and the United States' Request to Seal, shall be SEALED until further order of this Court.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that access to the sealed documents shall be limited to the United States and counsel for the defendant.
The Court has considered the factors set forth in Oregonian Publishing Co. v. U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon, 920 F.2d 1462 (9th Cir. 1990). The Court finds that, for the reasons stated in the United States' request, sealing the aforementioned memorandum serves a compelling interest.
The Court further finds that, in the absence of closure, the compelling interests identified by the United States would be harmed. In light of the public filing of its request to seal, the Court further finds that there are no additional alternatives to sealing the United States' memorandum that would adequately protect the compelling interests identified by the United States.
