Cohen 191 NY-COMDIV-COHEN-J ¶1(c) Required Motion Papers Papers in support of a sealing/redaction motion must include: (i) Memorandum of Law setting forth the factual and legal basis for sealing or redacting each document, citing applicable law; (ii) Affidavit Based on Personal Knowledge attesting to factual bases for sealing; (iii) Sealing/Redaction Spreadsheet clearly identifying each unredacted document by NYSCEF number and exhibit number, and the good-faith basis for each proposed redaction (generalized 'confidential business information' statements are not sufficient); (iv) Unredacted documents filed as NYSCEF exhibits with proposed redactions highlighted; (v) Corresponding public copy of each document reflecting proposed redactions.   ["e-filing", "courtroom-procedures"] [] 1 New York supreme sealing_procedures
COHEN3-SEAL-2 Part 3 Sealing Practices and Procedures – Hon. Joel M. Cohen 191 NY-COMDIV-COHEN-J ¶2 Substantive Standard for Sealing General assertions that information contained in documents is 'confidential' are not sufficient. The party seeking to seal court records has the burden to demonstrate compelling circumstances to justify restricting public access. The fact that the parties have a confidentiality agreement or stipulate to sealing is not sufficient. The Court has an independent obligation to determine whether sealing is appropriate. Narrowly targeted redactions are more likely to be permitted than sealing of an entire document or court file.   ["courtroom-procedures", "attorney-conduct"] ["Maxim, Inc. v Feifer, 145 AD3d 516 (1st Dept 2016)", "Gryphon Dom.
