                     PALM BEACH POST'S MOTION TO INTERVENE
                            AND PETITION FOR ACCESS

        Palm Beach Newspapers, Inc., d/b/a The Palm Beach Post (the "Post") moves to

requirements for sealing judicial records. In addition, continued sealing of these documents is
                                      RT


pointless, because these docwnents have been discussed repeatedly in open court records. For all
                             CE



of these reasons, the docwnents must be unsealed. As grounds for this Motion, the Post states:
