ea ee a we ee ee ee wre ee ee x ALVIN K. HELLERSTEIN, U.S.D.J.: I have reviewed the parties’ letter (ECF No. 26) moving to seal the Affidavit of Kevin Ray (ECF No. 22) and two records filed as exhibits thereto. Although the parties have consented to treating that material as “attorneys eyes only” material under their confidentiality stipulation, the letter does not describe any “‘extraordinary circumstance or compelling need’ to seal the documents from public inspection.” Bernsten v. O'Reilly, 307 F. Supp. 3d 161, 165 (S.D.N.Y. 2018) (quoting Video Software Dealers Ass'n v. Orion Pictures, 2\ F.3d 24, 27 (2d Cir. 1994)). Because the parties have not demonstrated good cause to support sealing the records at issue, the consent motion to seal is denied. Plaintiff is instructed to file publicly the records at issue. The Clerk shall terminate ECF No. 26.
