The federal judge overseeing the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia ordered a batch of documents to be unsealed Wednesday in response to a request from a media coalition that includes CBS News.
U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis said seven records must be be made available on the public docket for Abrego Garcia’s case, though one of the documents contains redactions. She also said the transcript from an April 30 hearing will be partially unsealed and include redactions that aim to protect potentially classified information or other sensitive material.
Xinis’ order was in response to a request to unseal court records made by more than a dozen news organizations, including CBS News. The judge found that the media outlets “rightly contend that, at common law, the public enjoys a presumptive right to access court records, overcome only when outweighed by competing interests.”
Can’t wait for it to be something like
[Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted] [Redacted]
Reminds me of the recent ‘new’ release of the Epstein files that were just the same trove of documents from the previous release just with more redactions added.
Pretty sure the plaintiffs filed motions regarding the overly tedacted files too
Xinis threatened to hold them in contempt a long time ago. I’m glad she hasn’t rolled over completely but I’m not holding my breath. “Potentially classified material” my ass. He’s a father who was kidnapped and shipped off to a concentration camp.
This young man and father was sent somewhere to DIE, with ZERO due process, because the trump regime claims that it was a “clerical error”.
Shame on “the land of the free”.
