WASHINGTON MUTUAL BANK FA, also known as Washington Mutual Bank, FIRST AMERICAN EAPPRAISEIT, a Delaware corporation; and LENDER SERVICE, INC., Defendants. Plaintiffs move to file under seal Exhibits A-O, Q, S, and U attached to the Declaration of Michael D. Braun in Support of Plaintiffs' Motion for Class Certification and certain portions of Plaintiffs' Notice of Motion, Motion for Class Certification, and Memorandum in Support which quote from these exhibits. On May 13, 2010, the court ordered the parties to either explain why all of the designated material is sealable or to submit a narrowly tailored request to file under seal only those portions of the documents that are sealable material. Plaintiffs represented that they sought to file the designated material under seal because it has been designated "Confidential" by defendant eAppraiseIT. The court has been informed that eAppraiseIT has now withdrawn its designation of the material at issue as "Confidential" and will not be filing any further papers explaining why the material should be sealed. It appears that eAppraiseIT no longer seeks to have any of the material ORDER DENYING MOTION TO SEAL--No. C-08-00868 RMW CCL E-FILED on 5/24/10 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA SAN JOSE DIVISION FELTON A.
