information. The PSR will itself remain sealed in the court record for purposes of any appellate review. A recent District Court case recites the relevant legal principle: Our court of appeals has held that '[w]hile a criminal defendant has no constitutional right to examine presentence reports, he is nevertheless entitled to disclosure of Brady material contained therein.' United States v. Cestoni, 185 F.Supp.3d 1184, 1191 (N.D. Cal 2016), citing United States v. Alvarez, 358 F.3d 1194, 1207 (9th Cir.2004). This Court should grant the motion and turn over any appropriate materials to the parties after in-camera review of the presentence report.
RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED This 20th day of January, 2017.
