Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc won a bid to seal documents in a lawsuit filed by a former trader fired over allegations he rigged the London interbank offered rate, according to a person familiar with the decision.

In a closed hearing yesterday, Singapore High Court Justice Lee Seiu Kin accepted RBS’s request to seal filings made after Sept. 6 in the lawsuit, according to the person, who asked not to be identified because the decision hasn’t been made public. Minutes of the hearing weren’t accessible at the court house today.
