IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA 

Shari Ferreira,

Plaintiff,

v. 

Joseph M Arpaio, et al.,

Defendants.

No. CV-15-01845-PHX-JAT

ORDER 

Pending before the Court is Defendants’ May 19, 2016, Motion for Court Order to 

Release Controlled Records. (Doc. 61). Defendants seek the release of certain 

“controlled” records that were initially delivered with redactions pursuant to Utah Code 

§§ 63G-2-304, 63G-2-202(7). Plaintiff does not oppose the motion, but does “request that 

the Court order that Defendants maintain the confidentiality of any records that the 

parties receive from such Court order.”1

(Doc. 66 at 1). 

 Based on the foregoing, 

IT IS ORDERED that Defendants’ Motion, (Doc. 61), is hereby GRANTED, to 

 

1

 Plaintiff, however, does not proffer any mechanism for the Court to rely on to 

ensure that the released records remain “confidential.” For example, Federal Rule of Civil 

Procedure 26(c) permits the Court to issue protective orders “for good cause” to “protect 

a party or person from annoyance, embarrassment, oppression, or undue burden or 

expense” during the discovery process. Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(c)(1). The burden is on the 

party seeking such an order to make “for each particular document it seeks to protect” a 

“showing that specific prejudice or harm will result if no protective order is granted.” 

Foltz v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co., 331 F.3d 1122, 1130 (9th Cir. 2003).

the limited extent that the Utah Department of Human Services/Farmington Bay Youth
