ORDER RE: APPLE’S MOTION FOR
LEAVE TO FILE A MOTION FOR
RECONSIDERATION OF THE
COURT’S PRIOR SEALING ORDER
(Re: Docket No. 552)

16

Before the court is a motion construed as a motion for leave to file a motion for

17

reconsideration 1 of the court’s prior order addressing a series of administrative motions to file

18

certain documents under seal. 2 Apple does not squarely address the burden it faces under

19
20

Civil L.R. 7-9, but rather files its motion “to further establish good cause and to clarify the reasons

21

it seeks to seal narrowly tailored redacted portions” of certain documents. 3 In light of the burden

22

the parties faced preparing for and during trial, the court will move beyond the procedural

23

shortcomings of this approach and focus on the merits of Apple’s request. 4
