EQUAL EMPLOYMENT
OPPORTUNITY COMMISSION
v.

PLAINTIFF
CIVIL ACTION NO. 4:13CV00092-SA-JMV

STONE PONY PIZZA, INC.

DEFENDANT
ORDER SEALING EXHIBIT

Before the court is Defendant Stone Pony Pizza, Inc.’s Motion to Strike [55] filed January
3, 2014. Specifically, Defendant seeks an order striking an exhibit filed by the EEOC as an
attachment to its Reply in support of it’s Motion to Modify Order Extending Deadline to Identify
Class Members [52] on the ground that it contains personal and private information and
employment histories of individuals. While the court agrees said information is sensitive, the
court finds the appropriate remedy in this instance is to seal said exhibit. Accordingly, the motion
to strike is DENIED. However, because the subject exhibit contains the personal and sensitive
employment histories of individuals not parties to this action, the Clerk shall forthwith seal the
Exhibit to Docket Entry # 52.
Ordered this 10th day of January, 2014.
