The parties respectfully request a three-week extension of the current case deadlines. (ECF 42.)
23 The parties have been working diligently to move this case along. Since the last conference with the Court:
24 both sides have propounded and responded to additional, written discovery; defendants have produced over
25 12,000 pages of documents; 5 depositions have been taken (3 Federal Air Marshals, and 2 management
26 representatives); the class list has been compiled and, on August 5, 2016, class notice was mailed out.
27 Notwithstanding these efforts, some unanticipated delay has occurred with respect to plaintiff’s retention of
28 an expert and the process of getting the expert’s background checked and Transportation Security

Many of the documents regarding the Federal Air Marshal Service’s operations contain
Sensitive Security Information (“SSI”), as defined by federal regulation, 49 C.F.R. § 1520.5. TSA has a
26 SSI Program Office that reviews court filings for SSI redaction. See generally 49 C.F.R. § 1520.5.
Otherwise, “records containing SSI are not available for public inspection or copying.” 49 C.F.R.
27 § 1520.15. In order to protect this SSI, the parties request that they initially be permitted to file their
class certification briefing under seal. Both sides’ briefs will then be reviewed by the SSI Program
28 Office for redactions, and publicly-available versions filed within 30 days.
