Danielle S. Brissett, et al. v. Enterprise Leasing Company-West LLC, et al.

Brissett · United States District Court for the District of Nevada · January 9, 2026 · No. 2:24-cv-01382-BNW

Summary

The United States District Court for the District of Nevada granted Plaintiffs’ motion to seal exhibits related to petitions for approval of settlements involving three minors. The court found compelling reasons to seal the exhibits because they contained personal identifying information and confidential settlement-related information, and it deemed the motion to shorten time moot.

Holdings

  1. The exhibits should be sealed because they contain personal identifying information concerning the plaintiffs, including minors, and compelling reasons therefore outweigh the presumption of public access.
  2. The motion to shorten time was moot.

Questions Presented

  1. Whether exhibits attached to petitions for approval of minor compromises should be sealed under the compelling-reasons standard.
  2. Whether the motion to shorten time should be granted or otherwise resolved.
