BLUESTONE INNOVATIONS LLC,

v.
NICHIA CORP.; NICHIA AMERICA CORP.,
Defendant.

/

12
On March 25, 2013, the Court found that the parties’ stipulated administrative motion to file
13
documents under seal failed to make the requisite showing that the documents at issue are sealable. The
14
Court ordered that the parties must make a sufficient showing by April 1, 2013, or the documents would
15
be made part of the public record. Some of the documents were designated “Confidential” by third
16
parties, including Thomas Licensing, LLC. On March 27, 2013, Thomas wrote a letter to the Court
17
requesting additional time to prepare a declaration on the confidentiality of its documents. Thomas
18
claims that it was only informed of the filing of its confidential materials on March 26, 2013, and
19
therefore it needs more time.
20
Accordingly, the Court allows the parties until no later than April 8, 2013 to make the requisite
21
showing that the documents at issue are sealable.
22
23
IT IS SO ORDERED.
