Sealed documents regarding evidence in disgraced former Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver’s criminal trial will be unsealed in the coming weeks, a federal judge ruled on Thursday.

Portions of the documents will be redacted before they are released, Manhattan federal-court Judge Valerie Caproni said.

Lawyers for Silver, who was convicted on corruption charges in December, argued that unsealing the records would be prejudicial in the event he wins a bid to overturn his conviction and is tried a second time.

Attorney Justin Shur also called the information at issue “tangential” and asked to unseal it only after the once-powerful Democrat Silver “exhausts his appellate rights.”
