E.J.R. V. District Court

In this original proceeding pursuant to C.A.R. 21, we issued a rule directing the respondent, Boulder County District Court,*fn1 to show cause why it should not be prohibited from unsealing the criminal Justice records of the petitioner, E.J.R., which it ordered sealed by a final order more than two years earlier. The Boulder District Attorney's Office asked the district court to unseal the criminal records of E.J.R., which request was granted. Because we hold that E.J.R. has a vested interest in the district court's previous and final order sealing his criminal conviction records, we now make the rule absolute and direct the district court to vacate its March 15, 1994 order.
