“every court has supervisory power over its own records and files, and access has been denied where court files might have become a vehicle for improper purposes.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“left to the sound discretion of the trial court.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“Disclosure of these documents is not a matter committed to the discretion of the district court, instead it is a matter which statutorily requires a factual finding of good cause. Access to judicial documents is based on “a general right to inspect and copy public records and documents,” but “[i]t is uneontested ... that the right to inspect and copy judicial records is not absolute.” ... Title III does not allow these documents to become “public” until there is a factual determination of good cause for their disclosure.”
