1

In accordance with Civil Local Rules 7-11 and 79-5, and General Order No. 62, Apple Inc.

2

(“Apple”) submits this motion for an order to seal Exhibits 1-7, 12-16, 20-22, 24, 25, 27, 29-31,

3

33-56, 63, 65, 66, and 68-79 to the Declaration of Jason R. Bartlett in Support of Apple’s

4

Opposition to Samsung’s Motion for Summary Judgment (“Bartlett Declaration”).

5

Exhibits 1-6, 12-16, 20, 24, 27, 29, 31, 48-54, 56, and 75-79 to the Bartlett Declaration

6

contain information that is highly confidential as set out in the Declaration of Cyndi Wheeler in

7

Support of Apple’s Administrative Motion to File Documents Under Seal (“Wheeler

8

Declaration”) (Dkt. No. 998). It is Apple’s policy not to disclose or describe to third parties its

9

confidential financial, design, trade secrets, or product development information. (Wheeler

10

Declaration ¶ 11.) The Apple-confidential material in these exhibits relate to such confidential

11

information, as detailed in the Wheeler Declaration. (Id. ¶ 1-10.) This information is highly

12

confidential to Apple and could be used by Apple’s competitors to Apple’s disadvantage if

13

disclosed publicly. (Id. ) The relief requested in this motion is necessary and is narrowly tailored

14

to protect confidential information, focusing only on specific portions of the documents at issue.

15

(Id. ¶ 14.)

16

Exhibits 7, 21, 22, 25, 30, 33, 34-47, and 63, 65, 66, and 68-74 to the Bartlett Declaration

17

contain materials that Samsung has designated as confidential under the protective order entered

18

in this case. In addition, Exhibits 63, 65, and 66 to the Bartlett Declaration have been designated

19

by Samsung as containing third party confidential information. Apple expects that, pursuant to

20

Civil Local Rule 79-5(d), Samsung will file a declaration seeking to establish good cause to

21

permit the sealing of these materials.

22

Finally, to the extent the Bartlett Declaration refers to or discusses the above-referenced

23

confidential materials, it could be used to Apple’s disadvantage by competitors if it were not filed

24

under seal, for the same reasons. (Id. ¶ 13.)
