SDNY COURTHOUSE,
June 18 – Samantha Siva
Kumaran sued Northland Energy
Trading LLC for allegedly
keeping and using her risk
hedging software - then she
wanted many of the pleadings
and exhibits kept secret and
sealed.
U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil held a
proceeding on June 18.
Inner City Press
covered it. Kumaran repeatedly
asked to have forthcoming
filings sealed. Judge Vyskocil
to her credit said, That's not
how it works in Federal
court.
Well, it's
not supposed to be how it
works.
Ultimately Judge Vyskocil
issued an order denying the
motion to strike document from
the record, and referring the
plaintiff's motion for a
protective order to Magistrate
Judge Freeman.
The case is
Kumaran et al v. Northland
Energy Trading, LLC et al.,
19-cv-8345 (Vyskocil /
Freeman).
