United States Ninth Circuit
FOLTZ v. STATE FARM MUT. AUTO. INS. CO., 00-35187/35283, 01-35137
The district court abused its discretion in refusing to allow access to unfiled discovery materials from collateral litigation, where the court failed to undertake a relevance determination. The presumption of access is not rebutted where documents subject to a protective order are filed under seal as attachments to a dispositive motion.
