KIERNAN IN SUPPORT OF APPLE INC.’S ADMINISTRATIVE MOTION TO SEAL REPLY BRIEF IN SUPPORT OF MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT AND TO EXCLUDE EXPERT TESTIMONY OF ROGER G. NOLL 17 18 19 20 21 22 1. I am a partner in the law firm of Jones Day, located at 555 California Street, 26th 23 Floor, San Francisco, CA 94104. I submit this declaration in support of Apple’s Administrative 24 Motion to Seal Reply Brief in Support of Motion for Summary Judgment and to Exclude Expert 25 Testimony of Roger G. Noll. The facts stated in this declaration are true and based upon my own 26 personal knowledge, and if called to testify to them, I would competently do so. 27 28 2. The relief requested in Apple’s Administrative Motion is necessary and narrowly tailored to protect Apple's confidential business information. Portions of Apple’s reply brief SFI-850744v1 -1- Decl. ISO Admin. Motion to Seal C 05-00037 YGR 1 contain highly confidential and commercially sensitive business information, including 2 confidential details of Apple’s FairPlay digital rights management (DRM) technology and 3 updates to that technology; inquiries Apple received from customers that reflect personal 4 information of the customers and confidential and proprietary information regarding how Apple 5 responds to such inquiries; iPod and iTunes Store sales and market research; decisions by Apple 6 employees regarding Apple's business strategy; and confidential pricing policies and transaction 7 data relating to the sale of Apple products. Apple disclosed this information pursuant to the 8 Protective Order in this case, keeps this information highly confidential, and does not disclose it 9 to the public. As demonstrated in the attached declarations, the disclosure of this information 10 would harm Apple. 11 12 3. Motions to seal similar information have been granted previously in this case. See, e.g., ECF Nos. 184, 247, 291, 336, 340, 353, 422, 527. 13 4. Further, the reply brief summarizes, paraphrases, or otherwise references, among 14 other things, the expert reports in this matter. Each of these reports, and the depositions of the 15 experts regarding the reports, is reference the highly confidential information identified above, 16 that was disclosed pursuant to the Protective Order in this case. The expert materials, and 17 discussions thereof contained in the parties’ written memoranda of points and authorities are the 18 subject of currently pending administrative motions to seal.
