Order
The court requested that the Office of State Review place a copy of the Certified Administrative Record in the care and custody of counsel for the defendant. The defendant’s counsel was directed to provide the court with an electronic copy for filing under seal, meaning it would not be publicly available in the ordinary case file.
Counsel was also directed to provide sealed physical and electronic copies to the Clerk of Court. The clerk was directed to accept the sealed copies for placement in the court’s vault. Counsel was additionally directed to provide Judge Roman’s chambers with an unredacted physical courtesy copy, an electronic copy on a storage device, and an electronic copy by email if feasible.
Disposition
The court further directed the clerk to terminate the motion at ECF No. 13. The opinion does not identify the motion’s subject or state that it was granted or denied. This order addresses record-handling and filing procedures rather than the underlying dispute.
