The plaintiff corporation sought a sealing order and a 'counsel eyes only' order for a 34-page document containing sensitive financial information.
The document had previously been disclosed to the individual defendant during family law proceedings involving the plaintiff's principal.
The court granted the sealing order to protect the plaintiff's commercial interests and the integrity of the government procurement process.
On consent, the corporate defendant was denied access to the document.
However, the court refused to deny the individual defendant access, finding that he needed to see the document to ensure trial fairness and to respond to the plaintiff's allegations.
