Order on Motion to Determine Confidentiality
|
| Description |
ORD-Grant Confidentiality ~ ORDERED that the November 18, 2022 Motion to Determine Confidentiality of Court Records, as clarified by the November 21, 2022 Notice of Clarification, is granted. The information required by Florida Rule of General Practice and Judicial Administration 2.420(e)(3) follows: (A) This is a civil case. The Appellant has sued the Appellees, a condominium association and five of the association’s current and former board members, for defamation. The Appellant sought leave to amend to add a claim for punitive damages. The trial court entered an order denying that motion. This is an appeal from that non-final order. (B) According to Rule 2.420(c), the following court records “shall be confidential”: • “All records made confidential under . . . Florida and federal law.” Fla. R. Gen. Prac. & Jud. Admin. 2.420(c)(7).• “All records presently deemed to be confidential . . . by Florida Statutes, [and] by prior case law of the State of Florida . . . .” Id. § 2.420(c)(8).Confidential records under Rule 2.420(c) also include: (9) Any court record determined to be confidential in case decision or court rule on thegrounds that (A) confidentiality is required to . . . (vi) avoid substantial injury to a party by disclosure of matter protected by common law or privacy right not generally inherent in the specific type of proceeding sought to be disclosed;(vii) comply with established public policy set forth in the . . .statutes of Florida or Florida rules or case law. . . . Furthermore, attorney client communications are privileged and “confidential” under Florida law. See §§ 90.502(1)(c), 90.502(2). Fla. Stat. “The purpose of the attorney-client privilege is to encourage full and frank communication between attorneys and their clients and thereby promote broader public interests in the observance of law and administration of justice. . . . It is an interest traditionally deemed worthy of maximum legal protection.” Worley v. Cent. Fla. Young Men's Christian Ass'n, 228 So. 3d 18, 25 (Fla. 2017) (citations and internal quotes omitted). Attorney work product is similarly an “important protection[] in the adversarial legal system.” Gosman v. Luzinski, 937 So. 2d 293, 296 (Fla. 4th DCA 2006).Appellee Waterview Towers Condominium Association, Inc. (the “Association”) has made clear its position that certain documents described below and that are part of the appellate record contain confidential attorney-client and work product information that should not be disclosed to its opponents in a separate and ongoing series of pending lawsuits (the “Underlying Litigation”) or to the public. (C) No party name is confidential. (D) The progress docket is not confidential. (E) The particular information that is determined to be confidential is as follows:• From the Appellant’s unredacted Appendix to his Initial Brief: Ex. 7 at A277; Ex. 9 at A278-89 [substantial portions therein]; Ex. 43 at A304-06 [substantial portions therein]; Ex. 45 at A307 [substantial portion therein]; Ex. 53 at A312-14 [substantial portions therein]; Ex. 71 at A332-33 [substantial portions therein]; Ex. 97 at A364-65 [substantial portions therein]; Ex. 99 at A374 [substantial portions therein]; Ex. 107 at A379 [substantial portions therein]; Ex. 112 at A392; Ex. 117 at A396-99 [substantial portions therein]; Ex. 131 at 417-18 [substantial portions therein]; Ex. 132 at 419-21 [substantial portions therein]; Ex. 133 at A422-27 [substantial portions therein]; Ex. 134 at A428-31 [substantial portions therein]; Ex. 136 at A432-33 [substantial portions therein]; Ex. 137 at A434-36 [substantial portions therein]; Ex. 139 at A438 [substantial portions therein]; and Ex. 142 at A440-42 [substantial portions therein].• From the Appellants’ unredacted Initial Brief: PDF page 15, portions of a quoted email therein; PDF page 25, the entire quoted email therein; PDF page 26, the entire quoted email therein; PDF page 27, the entire first quoted email therein, an
