No. 2022-0808-KSJM Dear Counsel: Non-party Pro Publica, Inc. challenged redactions in eight deposition transcripts that the parties filed in connection with Defendants’ request for leave to move for summary judgment.1 In response, the parties each filed Motions for Continued Confidential Treatment.2 This letter grants both motions. “Under the First Amendment of the United States Constitution and as a matter of common law, the public has a presumptive right of access to judicial 1 C.A. No. 2022-0808-KSJM, Docket (“Dkt.”) 207; see also Dkt. 174 (Letter Requesting Leave to Move for Summary Judgment). 2 Dkts. 210–11. C.A. No. 2022-0808-KSJM April 13, 2026 Page 2 of 5 records.”3 The public’s right of access to court documents and proceedings is “considered fundamental to a democratic state and necessary in the long run so that the public can judge the product of the courts in a given case.”4 Court of Chancery Rule 5.1 reflects the Court of Chancery’s commitment to the public’s right of access.5 The default presumption under Rule 5.1 is that court proceedings and filings are public record.6 Rule 5.1 allows parties to file documents containing confidential information under seal (a “Confidential Filing”), but requires a public version “for every Confidential Filing, except for an exhibit or lodged deposition.”7 In public versions of Confidential Filings, parties may redact only information that they believe constitutes “Confidential Information” as defined by Rule 5.1.8 “Confidential Information” under Rule 5.1 means information: (A) that is maintained confidentially; (B) that is not otherwise publicly available; (C) where public access to the information will cause particularized harm; and (D) where the magnitude of the harm from public access to the information outweighs the public interest in the information.9 3 In re Columbia Pipeline Gp., Inc., 2018 WL 4182207, at *1 (Del.
