ORDER
/

16

On August 30, 2011, counsel for defendants objected to and sought clarification

17

of this court’s August 24, 2011 protective order, requesting that counsel for defendants also be

18

allowed to review the documents subpoenaed by plaintiff. The court contemplated the protective

19

order as applicable to those documents received by counsel for plaintiff via subpoena duces

20

tecum and did not intend to preclude defendants’ counsel from reviewing the documents

21

accessible to defendants’ counsel through the Department of Corrections. Good cause appearing,

22

the August 24, 2011 protective order is amended to read as follows:

23

The production of documents pertinent to inmate Robinson is
subject to a protective order. Any documents produced as to
inmate Robinson shall be used solely for the purpose of this
litigation, and the documents shall be reviewed solely by counsel
for the parties.
