Tomorrow, in Baltimore -- Musk will learn (again) that his minions are not free to filch Social Security data -- since they've articulated no legitimate need for such personal information -- as individuals' earning histories. Here's the latest -- we will try to find a live feed or live blog, tomorrow:
. . .The Court has received the Administrative Record submitted by the defendants. See ECF 86; ECF 86-1 to ECF 86-6; ECF 100; ECF 100-1, ECF 100-2. The submission was provided to the Court, under seal. See ECF 85, ECF 88.
Nevertheless, it contains substantial redactions. See, e.g., ECF 86-2 at 6–8, 10, 14–17. Given the extensive redactions, the grounds for sealing are unclear.
Today, plaintiffs moved to supplement the administrative record. ECF 96. The motion is supported by a memorandum (ECF 96-1) (collectively, “Motion to Supplement”). Alternatively, plaintiffs seek limited discovery. Id. In addition, plaintiffs filed an opposition (ECF 94) to the motion for protective order that the government filed yesterday. ECF 84.
As you know, by Order of April 2, 2025 (ECF 91), I arranged a telephonic hearing for tomorrow to address the government’s motion for protective order (ECF 84). But, with the growing number of disputes, I believe a hearing in court is appropriate. Therefore, in lieu of a telephone hearing, I will hold the hearing tomorrow in Courtroom 5B, beginning at 10:00 a.m.
As of now, I will consider the Motion for Protective Order (ECF 84); the Motion to Seal (ECF 85); and the Motion to Supplement (ECF 96).
Despite the informal nature of this letter, it is an Order of the Court and shall be docketed as such. . . .
Like I've said earlier today -- there are LOTS of balls in the air. Onward. I did get a call from some penguins though -- and they remain puzzled as to why their Eskimo Ice Cream Bars now cost double what they did. . . yesterday. Ugh.
