Attorney Rebecca Kiley asks Supreme Judicial Court to presume sealing of indigent defense funding motions
At oral argument, defense counsel Rebecca Kiley urged the Supreme Judicial Court to adopt a presumption that ex parte motions for funds filed by indigent defendants be sealed to prevent prosecutors from gaining a strategic advantage; she argued publication is often irreparable and urged reversal of a trial judge's refusal to seal in this case.
