*1  The defendant moves to have the record of his conviction sealed pursuant to CPL 160.59. The defendant was employed as an information technology officer by a prominent law firm between 1997 and 2002. Toward the end of his tenure he began to access the firm’s web and email servers hundreds of times without permission. He gained access to emails of fourteen employees, and perused client lists and employee salary information which he had no right to see. Whether he trolled through the files out of pique, boredom, or some more nefarious motive is not known, but it was never alleged that he utilized or attempted to profit from the information that he wrongly viewed. Nevertheless, the firm claimed that his unauthorized delving was partially responsible for the crash of the firm’s computer system in February 2003. The firm estimated that the costs of returning the system to operation and the billable hours lost as a result of the crash totaled approximately $393,000.
