The SEC has asked the Judge to seal Hinman’s doc. It is up to Judge to decide if these emails and docs will become “judicial documents”. The judge can direct the SEC to file these memos on the public docket, with some redactions.
He said that Judge Torres may not rely upon the Hinman Emails and drafts in the ruling, and will accept the appeal of the SEC. These memos are only relevant to the cross-impeachment, as the Judge has already indicated.
