ORDER DIRECTING DEFENDANTS
TO FILE AN ADMINISTRATIVE
MOTION TO SEAL IN ACCORDANCE
WITH LOCAL RULE 79-5
Re: Dkt. No. 7

12
13

Plaintiff filed this civil action on May 24, 2016. A day later, Defendants filed a letter

14

requesting that the Court provisionally seal the complaint based on confidentiality concerns.

15

(Dkt. No. 7.) Civil Local Rule 79-5 outlines the procedure for sealing and identifies “sealable”

16

documents as those which contain information that is “privileged, protectable as a trade secret or

17

otherwise entitled to protection under the law.” Civ. L.R. 79-5(b). Defendants shall file an

18

administrative motion to file under seal in accordance with Rule 79-5(d) on or before June 2,

19

2016. Any such request should be “narrowly tailored to seal only the sealable material.” Civ.

20

L.R. 79-5(d)(1)(B). Any opposition shall be filed within 4 days in accordance with Local Rule 7-

21

11(b). The Court will take the matter under submission upon receipt of the opposition and notify

22

the parties if oral argument is necessary.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
