Attorneys representing accused swindler Tom Petters have filed motions seeking to dismiss the case, and they also want federal prosecutors sanctioned, presumably for some sort of alleged misconduct. But the details of those motions remain a mystery because the government got a judge to order the motions and all materials related to them to be filed under seal.
The Star Tribune filed motions Wednesday afternoon seeking to intervene in the case in an effort to get the motions and related materials opened to the public. The newspaper also objected to the cryptic notice on public dockets about the filings, which simply show that a dozen nondescript documents have been filed under seal between June 30 and July 2.
