Case No. 11-cv-01846-LHK (PSG)
[PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING
ADMINISTRATIVE MOTION TO
FILE DOCUMENTS UNDER SEAL

1

On May 30, 2012, Apple Inc. (“Apple”) filed an Administrative Motion to File

2

Documents Under Seal (“Motion to Seal”) relating to its Reply In Support of Apple Inc.’s

3

Motion Pursuant To Rule 62(C) For Entry Of Preliminary Injunction Without Further Hearing

4

(“Reply”). The Motion to Seal seeks to seal portions of Apple’s Reply and its [Proposed]

5

Findings of Fact and Conclusions Of Law and Order Granting Preliminary Injunction (“Proposed

6

Order”). These documents contain confidential information that this Court has previously

7

ordered sealed. (See Dkt. No. 410 (sealing certain exhibits attached to the Declaration of Francis

8

Ho).) They also contain information that Samsung has designated as protectable under the

9

protective order entered in this case. Pursuant to Civil L.R. 79-5(d), Samsung has filed the

10

Declaration of Hankil Kang in Support of Samsung’s Administrative Motion to File Documents

11

Under Seal (See Dkt. No. 977-2, the “Kang Declaration”) for the purpose of establishing that the

12

designated information is sealable. The Kang Declaration provides sufficient evidence that

13

information designated as confidential in Apple’s Reply and Proposed Order is “privileged or

14

protectable as a trade secret or otherwise entitled to protection under the law,” and thus sealable.

15

Civil L.R. 79-5(a). The Motion to Seal is narrowly tailored to seek the sealing only of sealable

16

information.

17

19

Accordingly, for good cause shown, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the following
documents shall be filed under seal:
•

The confidential, unredacted version of Apple’s Reply In Support of Apple Inc.’s Motion

20
Pursuant To Rule 62(C) For Entry Of Preliminary Injunction Without Further Hearing.

•

The confidential, unredacted version of Apple’s [Proposed] Findings of Fact and
Conclusions Of Law and Order Granting Preliminary Injunction
IT IS SO ORDERED.
