Summary
Memorandum Opinion and Order by Judge Alison J. Nathan in US v. Maxwell denying the defendant's request to broadly modify a protective order to use criminal discovery documents in civil cases. The Court found Maxwell failed to show good cause or relevance for the modification. However, the Court permitted Maxwell to share specific factual information regarding grand jury subpoenas and prior rulings by other courts ('Court-1' and 'Court-2') with relevant judicial officers under seal, as these facts were largely public record.
