                       ORDER ON MOTION FOR RECORDS

       Defendant/Petitioner (Petitioner) moves the Court to produce documents generated

by or possessed by court personnel regarding his bail hearing in April 2022. (Motion for

Records, ECF No. 284.)        “The judicial branch is exempt from the Freedom of

Information Act,” United States v. Casas, 376 F.3d 20, 22 (1st Cir. 2004), and Petitioner

cites no relevant legal authority that would support his request. Petitioner’s general

reference to the Court’s “administrative authority” is unavailing. The Court discerns no

legal or factual basis to support Petitioner’s request. Accordingly, the Court denies

Petitioner’s motion for records.

                                         NOTICE

       Any objections to this Order shall be filed in accordance with Federal Rule of

Civil Procedure 72 and Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 59.

                                                      /s/ John C. Nivison
                                                      U.S. Magistrate Judge
