Privacy in the record

CENTRAL ISLIP, N.Y. — A federal court in New York partially seals personal information disclosed in prior motions to quash and for protective orders, which included the defendants’ social security numbers and corporate bank account information. Some filings are sealed entirely, while others can be refiled with redactions; still more others will remain public because the defendants waived their privacy rights by including the information on motions that remained on the docket for months without taking appropriate action.
