The undersigned recently granted in part and denied in part the first motion to retain

12

confidentiality designations filed by defendant Lloyds TSB Bank, PLC (“Lloyds”). See Doc. No.

13

148 (the “March 26, 2013 Order”). Before the court issued the March 26, 2013 Order, Lloyds

14

filed a second motion to retain confidentiality designations. See Doc. No. 126. The undersigned

15

hereby orders the parties to meet and confer regarding the designations at issue in Lloyds’ second

16

motion, using the principles and the reasoning set forth in the March 26, 2013 Order to attempt to

17

resolve their discovery dispute without further court involvement.

18

Plaintiffs’ opposition to the second motion is due to be filed by April 1, 2013, and the

19

motion is scheduled to be heard on April 23, 2013. In order to allow the parties to schedule and

20

engage in a meaningful meet and confer process, those dates are continued by two weeks. In the

21

event the parties are unable to resolve their dispute, Plaintiffs shall file their opposition by April

22

15, 2013, and the motion will be heard on May 7, 2013. The parties may appear telephonically.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
