Docket entry

210787 The Daily Press v. Commonwealth 10/20/2022 In consolidated appeals challenging three rulings by the circuit court relating to a pending criminal case in which a police officer was indicted for second-degree murder of a suspect during an arrest, and other offenses, three trial court holdings are reversed -- barring public access to a pretrial bail hearing, keeping certain motions and exhibits under seal, and finding that the City of Newport News lacked standing to oppose any public access to sealed documents that it had previously produced in response to a subpoena. The proceedings are remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion. Combined case with Record No. 210827
