`
`
`
`Case No. 19-cv-02033-YGR (JCS)
`
`
`ORDER DENYING MOTION TO FILE
`PORTIONS OF JOINT DISCOVERY
`LETTER UNDER SEAL
`
`Re: Dkt. No. 155
`
`On April 13, 2021, Plaintiff filed an administrative motion to file portions of the parties’
`
`joint discovery letter (“the Joint Discovery Letter”) under seal based solely on citation of witness
`
`testimony that was designated by Defendant as HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL under the protective
`
`order in this case. As the designating party, Defendant was required to file within four days of the
`
`filing of the administrative motion a declaration establishing that the material at issue is sealable.
`
`See Civil Local Rule 79-5(d)(1)(A) & (e). Defendant has not filed the required declaration and
`
`the deadline to do so has passed. Accordingly, the administrative motion is DENIED without
`
`prejudice. Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(e)(2), Plaintiff is required to file the unredacted
`
`document in the public record “no earlier than 4 days, and no later than 10 days” after the date of
`
`this Order. However, if Defendant files a motion to seal in connection with the Joint Discovery
`
`Letter within 4 days of the date of this Order, Plaintiff shall not file the unredacted Joint Discovery
`
`Letter in the public record unless and until the Court denies that motion.
`
`IT IS SO ORDERED.
`
`Dated: April 22, 2021
