DECLARATION OF MELISSA GARDNER IN
SUPPORT OF DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO SEAL
CASE NO. 13-CV-05996-PJH (MEJ)
1
I, Melissa Gardner, declare:
2
1.
I am an attorney in the law firm of Lieff, Cabraser, Heimann & Bernstein, LLP, a
3
member of the State Bar of California. I am admitted to practice before this Court. I am one of
4
the counsel for Plaintiffs in this action. I make this declaration based on my own personal
5
knowledge. If called upon to testify, I could and would testify competently to the truth of the
6
matters stated herein.
7
2.
I submit this Declaration in support of Defendant, Facebook, Inc.’s Administrative
8
Motion to File Under Seal (Dkt. Nos. 147; 162) for the following documents: Exhibits A, L-W,
9
and FF-HH to the Declaration of Christopher Chorba in support of Defendant’s Opposition to
10
Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification (Dkt. No 162-3, previously Dkt. No. 149-1; “Chorba
11
Declaration”); and portions, specified herein, of (1) the Chorba Declaration, (2) Defendant’s
12
Opposition to Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification (Dkt. No. 149), (3) the Expert Witness
13
Report of Catherine Tucker (Dkt. No. 162-7, previously Dkt. No. 149-7), and (4) Defendant’s
14
Appendix of Evidence (Dkt. Nos. 162-9 and 162-10, previously Dkt. Nos. 155-1, and 156-9).
15
3.
Exhibit A to the Chorba Declaration (Exhibit 21 to Defendant’s Motion to Seal) is
16
a table through which Defendant characterizes the deposition testimony of six individuals:
17
Plaintiffs Matthew Campbell and Michael Hurley, former Plaintiff David Shadpour, and three
18
absent Class Members whom Facebook subpoenaed and deposed. Good cause exists to seal the
19
entirety of Exhibit A. Under the applicable “good cause” standard, the Court may order records
20
sealed or otherwise protected “to protect a party or person from annoyance, embarrassment,
21
oppression, or undue burden or expense.” Pintos v. Pac. Creditors Ass’n, 605 F.3d 665, 678 (9th
22
Cir. 2010). Defendant’s table poses a significant risk that the out-of-context “Yes/No” statements
23
attributed to each witness will be interpreted by the public and possibly by the press as their own
24
affirmative, unqualified statements, resulting in annoyance, embarrassment, or other significant
25
harm to the witnesses. The public has no meaningful need to access Defendant’s characterization
26
of their testimony. See Phillips ex rel. Estates of Byrd v. Gen. Motors Corp., 307 F.3d 1206,
27
1213 (9th Cir. 2002) (explaining that “good cause” standard requires “balancing the needs for
28
discovery against the need for confidentiality”). Additionally, the absent Class members deposed
1
DECLARATION OF MELISSA GARDNER IN
SUPPORT OF MOTION TO SEAL
CASE NO. 13-CV-05996-PJH (MEJ)
1
by Facebook have never sought to place their identities in the public record; such disclosure could
2
generate undue, embarrassing, or otherwise burdensome public attention. Mr. Shadpour has
3
dismissed his claims in this case, with prejudice (Dkt. No. 123). These witnesses’ testimony, and
4
the non-parties’ identities, are entitled to protection under the law in order to protect their privacy
5
interests. See O’Connor v. Uber Techs., Inc., No. 13-3826, 2015 WL 355496, at *2 (N.D. Cal.
6
Jan. 27, 2015) (quoting G & C Auto Body Inc. v. Geico Gen. Ins. Co., No. 6–4898, 2008 WL
7
867372, at *2 (N.D. Cal. Mar. 11, 2008) (finding that a non-party’s privacy interest in
8
information with “little or no relevance to the issues raised by [the] summary judgment motions”
9
is sufficient to satisfy even the higher “compelling reasons” standard applicable to dispositive
10
11
motions)).
4.
Exhibits L and M to the Chorba Declaration (Exhibits 25 and 26 to Defendant’s
12
Motion to Seal) are excerpts from the May 9, 2015 deposition of Matthew Campbell, and excerpts
13
from the July 9, 2015 deposition of Michael Hurley, respectively. Plaintiffs designated these
14
deposition transcripts Confidential under the operative Protective Order. Plaintiffs withdraw that

Reason for Confidentiality
Text contains identities and personal information of individuals who are
not parties to this case who corresponded via private Facebook message
with Mr. Hurley. These non-parties have a privacy interest in protecting
their identities and personal information from being made public. The
exposure of such information risks subjecting the person identified to
annoyance, embarrassment, or other significant harm. The public has no
meaningful need to access the information.
Testimony concerns the contents of Mr. Hurley’s private Facebook
messages. Mr. Hurley and other correspondents to such messages have a
privacy interest in protecting their correspondence from being made
public. The public has no meaningful need to access the information.
17
18
Good cause exists to seal the testimony designated above in order to protect the privacy
19
interests of the Plaintiffs and third parties. This testimony concerns the Plaintiffs’ private
20
communications and affairs disclosed nowhere else in public filings and not relevant to the merits
21
of the case or class certification, and/or the personally identifiable or confidential information of
22
non-parties to the case. Publishing this information would expose Plaintiffs and/or these non-
23
parties to unnecessary annoyance, embarrassment, or other significant harm, and the public has no
24
meaningful need to access it. See Seattle Times Co. v. Rhinehart, 467 U.S. 20, 33 (1983) (“Much
25
of the information that surfaces during pretrial discovery may be unrelated, or only tangentially
26
related, to the underlying cause of action. Therefore, restraints placed on discovered, but not yet
27
admitted, information are not a restriction on a traditionally public source of information.”).

Exhibit N to the Chorba Declaration (Exhibit 27 to Defendant’s Motion to Seal)
2
contains excerpts from the October 1, 2015 deposition of former Plaintiff David Shadpour.
3
Because Mr. Shadpour is no longer a party to this litigation (Dkt. No. 123), good cause exists to
4
seal his deposition testimony in its entirety. Publishing the testimony risks exposing Mr.
5
Shadpour to embarrassment, annoyance, or other potential harm. No public interest in such
6
publication exists, because testimony from a person who is neither a Plaintiff nor entitled to
7
recovery of damages in this case is not relevant. C.f., Roberts v. Electrolux Home Prods., Inc., No.
8
12-1644, 2013 WL 4239050, at *3 (C.D. Cal. Aug. 14, 2013) (declining to condition named

10
2006 WL 8096533, at *2 (D. Kan. June 9, 2006) (“[t]he information Defendants need regarding
11
class certification issues may be obtained from the remaining class representatives.”).
12
6.
Exhibits O and P to the Chorba Declaration (Exhibits 28-29 to Defendant’s
13
Motion to Seal) are Plaintiff Matthew Campbell’s Corrected Objections and Responses to
14
Defendant Facebook, Inc.’s First Set of Interrogatories, and Plaintiff Michael Hurley’s Objections
15
and Responses to Defendant Facebook, Inc.’s First Set of Interrogatories, respectively. Plaintiffs
16
designated these discovery responses Confidential under the operative Protective Order.
17
Plaintiffs withdraw that designation for Exhibits O and P, except for the following portions,
18
which contain personally identifiable information regarding the Plaintiffs’ e-mail addresses,
19
telephone numbers, and social media accounts: lines 3:20-24; 6:11-26 of Exhibit O, and lines
20
3:18-21; 6:9-18 of Exhibit P. Such personal information is entitled to protection under the law,
21
and good cause exists to keep it confidential to protect Plaintiffs’ privacy interests, and to protect
22
against exposure to harm or identity theft. See e.g., Brewer v. Gen. Nutrition Corp., No. 11-3587,
23
2014 WL 5873328, at *2 (N.D. Cal. Nov. 12, 2014).
24
7.
Exhibit Q to the Chorba Declaration (Exhibit 30 to Defendant’s Motion to Seal) is
25
former Plaintiff David Shadpour’s Corrected Objections and Responses to Defendant Facebook,
26
Inc.’s First Set of Interrogatories. As discussed above, because Mr. Shadpour is no longer a party
27
to this litigation, good cause exists to seal his discovery responses in their entirety. Publication of
28
such information could expose Mr. Shadpour to annoyance, embarrassment, or other potential
4

SUPPORT OF DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO SEAL
CASE NO. 13-CV-05996-PJH (MEJ)
1
harm. Information concerning a person who is neither a Plaintiff nor entitled to recovery of
2
damages in this case is not relevant; thus, no public interest in access to such testimony exists.
3
8.
Exhibit R to the Chorba Declaration (Exhibit 5 to Defendant’s Motion to Seal) is
4
a letter from Plaintiffs’ counsel David Rudolph to Defendant’s counsel Joshua Jessen, dated April
5
10, 2015. Good cause exists to seal the information on page 1 of Exhibit R (the text between
6
“contained,” and “detailed”), which reflects data obtained from private correspondence that Mr.
7
Campbell produced in discovery. Mr. Campbell has a right to privacy in his private
8
correspondence; the public has no meaningful need to access it. Plaintiffs withdraw the
9
confidentiality designation for Plaintiffs’ Supplemental Interrogatory responses (on page 2 of
10
11
Exhibit R).
9.
Exhibits S, T, and U to the Chorba Declaration (Exhibits 31-33 to Defendant’s
12
Motion to Seal) contain the partially redacted private Facebook messages of Plaintiff Matthew
13
Campbell, and show the names, dates, and URLs associated with each private message.
14
Exhibit V (Exhibit 34 to Defendant’s Motion to Seal) is a partially redacted version of Plaintiff
15
Michael Hurley’s private Facebook messages, showing the same information. The exposure of
16
such information risks subjecting Plaintiffs and their non-party correspondents to annoyance,
17
embarrassment, or other significant harm, and the public has no meaningful need to view these
18
private messages. For the same reasons, good cause exists to seal the designated text in
19
Exhibit W to the Chorba Declaration (Exhibit 7 to Defendant’s Motion to Seal); it is a subset of
20
the information contained in Exhibits S and T (correspondent’s name, date and time, and URL
21
contained in private messages), organized into table format.
22
10.
Exhibit FF, GG, and HH to the Chorba Declaration (Exhibits 35-37 to
23
Defendant’s Motion to Seal) are excerpts from third party depositions taken by Facebook of
24
individuals who sent or received private messages from Plaintiffs. These depositions were taken
25
on August 7, 2015 (Ex. FF), August 10, 2015 (Ex. GG), and August 11, 2015 (Ex. HH). These
26
individuals have not sought to put their identities in the public domain, nor does the public have a
27
substantial interest in their deposition testimony, even as it regards the subject of this litigation.
28
Information regarding how absent class members use Facebook is easily obtainable from other

Insofar as the text and figures identify nonparties to the litigation they should
be sealed for the additional reason that such non-parties have a privacy
interest in publication of their identities and in their private correspondence.

in access to it.
