In Edmar Financial v. Currenex, Judge Kaplan received Defendants’ request to seal or redact exhibits, but the provided text does not show a ruling.

Who this affects

The request concerns Defendants Currenex, Inc., State Street Bank and Trust Company, and State Street Global Markets International Limited, as well as access to exhibits filed in the case.

What happened

In Edmar Financial Company, LLC et al v. Currenex, Inc. et al, Defendants asked the court to keep certain exhibits from a filing under seal or to redact portions of them. The filing concerned exhibits containing information about Currenex’s platform, technical operations, business strategy, and client discussions.

Defendants asked to keep one exhibit sealed completely and to redact specified portions of two other exhibits. They argued that disclosure could harm their competitive position, expose confidential business information, and create security risks for the platform and its clients.

The provided text does not state whether the request was granted or denied. The filing is addressed to Judge Lewis A. Kaplan, and its concluding order block does not identify a disposition in the text provided.

Case
Edmar Financial Company, LLC et al v. Currenex, Inc. et al · No. 1:21-cv-06598
Judge
Lewis Kaplan
Date

Background

The document is a letter from Defendants Currenex, Inc., State Street Bank and Trust Company, and State Street Global Markets International Limited. It concerns exhibits attached to Plaintiffs’ October 3, 2025 sur-reply opposing Defendants’ request for issuance of a letter rogatory. The letter identifies named plaintiff DSquare Trading Limited as a party involved in one of the meeting notes.

Request

Defendants asked the court to keep three exhibits, identified as ECF Nos. 316-3, 316-6, and 316-7, sealed or partly sealed. Specifically, they requested that ECF No. 316-7 remain sealed in full; that lines 134:5–14 of ECF No. 316-3 be redacted while the rest was unsealed; and that pages or lines identified from ECF No. 316-6 be redacted while the rest was unsealed.

Defendants described the exhibits as containing commercially sensitive and proprietary information about the Currenex Platform, including technical configuration, platform functionality and interface, liquidity pools, data analytics, business strategy, and client-specific negotiations. They argued that disclosure could damage Currenex’s reputation, harm the defendants’ competitive position, and create security risks for the platform and its clients. The letter cited precedent concerning sealing confidential business information.

Disposition

The provided text does not state that the court granted, denied, or otherwise resolved the sealing request. Although the document ends with an order block and Judge Lewis A. Kaplan’s signature, the text supplied does not include the order’s ruling. Accordingly, no disposition can be identified from this material.
