Diane Karsten v. Avidyne Corporation

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Diane Karsten v. Avidyne Corporation, 467 F. App'x 555 (9th Cir. 2012)

Diane Karsten v. Avidyne Corporation

Opinion

MEMORANDUM ***

*556 Diane Karsten and Paula Meserve contend that the magistrate judge erred in ordering them and other nonparties to return unredacted copies of a show-cause hearing transcript. We disagree. Karsten and Meserve waived any objection to the redactions, see Phillips v. Gen. Motors Corp., 307 F.3d 1206, 1210 (9th Cir. 2002), and, in any event, the redaction order accorded with the common law right of access, see Foltz v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co., 331 F.3d 1122, 1137-38 (9th Cir. 2003). Because the redactions were proper, the magistrate judge had authority to order the return of unredacted copies of the transcript. The district court properly affirmed that order.

AFFIRMED.
