No. C 09-02280 WHA ORDER RE DEFENDANT'S MOTION TO FILE UNDER SEAL

12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28

Conceptus, Inc. has not timely filed a declaration supporting Hologic, Inc.'s motion to file under seal exhibits B, E, K, AA, and JJ to the declaration of Katie J.L. Scott and the specified three- and four-line portions of page 3 of Hologic's motion for summary judgment. Accordingly, there is insufficient support to file these items under seal pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(d). Hologic's motion to file under seal exhibits P and CCC to the declaration of Katie J.L. Scott is not "narrowly tailored to seek sealing only of sealable material" as required by Civil Local Rule 79-5(a). For example, the identity and qualifications of an expert witness generally do not constitute properly sealable information. The parties may cure these defects by NOON ON NOVEMBER 22, 2010. Otherwise, these materials will be filed in the public record. The parties are reminded that Civil Local Rule

79-5 requires that all motions to file documents under seal must be supported by declarations establishing that the documents are sealable.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
