The Court hereby DENIES WITHOUT PREJUDICE the Motion for failure to meet and confer. At oral argument, the parties stated that they have been working toward resolving a number of the issues raised by the Motion. However, Defendant requested that the Court conduct an in camera review of the requested law enforcement personnel and internal affairs records over which there is still disagreement. The Court finds good cause for granting Defendants' request and hereby Orders Defendants to lodge the responsive documents directly with this Court (i.e., by hand delivery) by no later than Friday, July 2, 2010 so that the Court may conduct an in camera review to determine which, if any, of the documents should be produced. The parties stated that they intend to file a stipulated protective order for the Court's review, and the Court anticipates that any such Order will protect the documents, if any, that it orders produced following its in camera review. v.
