I find this rather disturbing:Several Chicago media organizations had sued for release of documents relating to the Ryans' divorce, saying the public interest outweighed their concerns about privacy and the possible effect on their now 9-year-old son. Friday, a judge in Los Angeles, where their divorce was litigated, agreed to unseal portions of more than 360 pages of documents, although large parts remained blacked out.If divorce records are going to be public documents, that's fine. If they're going to be sealed, I can support that. The rules should be clear up-front. But the idea that they're sealed until some lawyer cites a "public right to know" makes me uneasy. |
