MINUTE ORDER
Entered by Michael E. Hegarty, United States Magistrate Judge, on November 29, 2012.
Defendant Doe #13's Unopposed Motion for Leave to Proceed Anonymously [filed
November 19, 2012; docket #63] is granted as follows. Doe #13 may proceed anonymously in this
matter as “Doe 13” only for the purpose of adjudicating the pending motion to quash, motion for
protective order and motion to sever/dismiss. Upon resolution of these motions, should Doe 13
perceive a need to continue proceeding anonymously in this case, he must then seek permission from
the Court to continue proceeding anonymously.
In addition, the Court construes the present motion as seeking restriction of Doe 13's
identifying information contained in the documents filed at dockets #32, #67 and #68. The Court
finds that Doe 13 meets the requirements of D.C. Colo. LCivR 7.2, and directs the Clerk of the Court
to maintain under Restriction Level 2 the document at dockets #32, #67 and #68 until further order
of the Court.
The Court directs the Clerk of the Court to mail a copy of this order to the address provided
by Doe 13 in the filing at docket #67, without publicly disclosing the information provided therein.
