`Case 2:22-cv-00828-CDS-BNW Document 47 Filed 09/20/22 Page 2 of 4
`
`
`Plaintiff, Allegiant Travel Company (“Allegiant”), moves under Local Rule IA 10-5 and
`
`Rule 5.2 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for leave to conditionally file Allegiant’s
`Memorandum of Points and Authorities in Opposition to Defendant R2 Solution LLC’s (“R2”),
`Motion for Stay (“Opposition”) under seal, pending any further filings from R2 the Court requires
`to establish grounds for sealing. Allegiant’s position is that nothing in its Opposition should be
`sealed. In support of its Motion, Allegiant relies on the following memorandum of points and
`authorities as required by Local Rule 7-2(a).
`MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES
`The Ninth Circuit requires that a party seeking to seal records attached to a non-
`
`dispositive motion must show “good cause.” Kamakana v. City & County of Honolulu, 447 F.3d
`1172, 1178 (9th Cir. 2006). R2 filed Motions to Seal [ECF Nos. 27 and 32] portions of its
`Motion to Dismiss and its Reply in Support of its Motion to Dismiss. In its Motions to Seal, R2
`contended certain portions “contain information and communications that are subject to a
`confidentiality agreement between the [P]arties.” And as such, R2 claims that the Parties are
`under an obligation of “non-disclosure.” R2’s Motion to Stay [ECF No. 44] asks the court to take
`a “preliminary peek” at its Motion to Dismiss. Allegiant’s Opposition to R2’s Motion to Stay
`thus involves some of the same issues and evidence raised in R2’s Motion to Stay.
`
`Although Allegiant strongly disagrees with R2’s contentions, and it does not believe any
`portion of Allegiant’s Opposition is subject to the Parties’ non-disclosure agreement, it has reason
`to believe R2 may claim Allegiant’s Opposition contains confidential information. Should the
`Court require, R2 will need to identify the specific portions of the Opposition it contends should
`be maintained under seal.
`
`For the foregoing reasons, Allegiant respectfully requests that this Court order Allegiant’s
`Opposition to be filed under seal, pending submission of any further filings by R2 to establish
`grounds for sealing.
