UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOHN DOE individually, and RICHARD 

ROE on behalf of Minor A, Minor B, and 

Minor C,

Plaintiffs,

v.

BUTTE COUNTY PROBATION 

DEPARTMENT, ROXANNE LARA, 

DAWN HOROWITZ-PERSON,

Defendants.

No. 2:20-cv-02248-TLN-DMC

ORDER

This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff John Doe’s (“Plaintiff”) Request to Seal 

Documents pursuant to Local Rule 141.

1

 (ECF No. 22.) Also before the Court is Defendants 

Butte County Probation Department and Roxanne Lara’s (collectively, “Defendants”) Request to 

Seal Documents pursuant to Local Rules 140 and 141. (ECF No. 23.) Both requests pertain to 

the same document — Defendants’ Response to Order to Show Cause Re: Preliminary Injunction 

and Opposition to Pseudonym Motion (ECF No. 19) — and request the Court seal the document. 

///

1 Plaintiff’s request additionally includes a “Request for Sanctions,” which the Court 

construes as a Motion for Sanctions pursuant to Local Rule 110 and will address in a separate 

order. (See ECF No. 22.)

The Court has reviewed both requests and the pleadings on file in this action. Pursuant to 

Local Rule 141 and the requests of both Plaintiff and Defendants, and good cause appearing, both 

requests are hereby GRANTED. (ECF Nos. 22, 23); see, e.g., Four in One Co. v. S.K. Foods, 

L.P., No. 2:08-cv-03017-KJM-EFB, 2014 WL 4078232, at *2 n.1 (E.D. Cal. Aug. 14, 2014). 

The Clerk of the Court is directed to SEAL Defendants’ Response to Order to Show 

Cause Re: Preliminary Injunction and Opposition to Pseudonym Motion. (ECF No. 19.) The 

document shall remain under seal until the Court’s December 9, 2020 Temporary Restraining 

Order expires or the Court issues an order on Plaintiff’s request for preliminary injunction, 

whichever is sooner.

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

DATED: January 5, 2021
