- ilcd;;1:16-cv-01341_de12 RegisterActionDescriptionText "TEXT ORDER granting 8 Motion for Leave to File Document Under Seal entered by Judge Joe Billy McDade on 12/8/2016. Presentence investigation reports are confidential documents created by the United States Probation Office in order to assist a judge in crafting appropriate sentences. United States Dep't of Justice v. Julian, 486 U.S. 1, 12 (1988). These reports contain highly sensitive and personal information about defendants. As such, courts very rarely allow third parties to access them. As several courts have recognized, allowing the disclosure of presentence investigation reports has a chilling effect on the willingness of a defendant and other contributing sources to supply useful information to the probation officer compiling the report. E.g., Julian, 486 U.S. at 12. Given 1) the nature of the document sought to be sealed and 2) that no party has presented the Court with a compelling, particularized need for access to the report, see United States v. Corbitt (879 F.2d 224, 228-40 (7th Cir. 1982)), the Court hereby grants the motion to seal presentence report. (TW, ilcd) (Entered: 12/08/2016)" @default.
