This document is a court transcript from July 2, 2021, detailing a conversation between Mr. Rossmiller and a judge regarding a protective order over sealed documents from a settled libel lawsuit. The judge expresses reluctance to uphold the order, citing the Second Circuit's apparent criticism of Judge Sweet for failing to conduct a detailed inquiry into the confidentiality of each document. The core issue is whether the sealed litigation materials should remain confidential.
