Pursuant to the Stipulated Protective Order governing confidentiality of documents

16

entered by the Court on May 18, 2015 (See Dkt. 58, “Protective Order”), Local Rule 10-5(b) and

17

Rules 5.2 and 26(c) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Plaintiff/Counter-Defendant Rimini

Street, Inc. and Counter-Defendant Seth Ravin (collectively “Rimini”) respectfully request that the

19

Court enter an Order directing that the identities of undisclosed Rimini clients contained within

20

Exhibit 7 of the Declaration of Ryan Dykal (Dkt. 157-1) be filed under seal.1

On April 16, 2016, Oracle filed a “Declaration of Nitin Jindal in Support of Oracle’s

The Protective Order provides that: “Counsel for any Designating Party may designate any
Discovery Material as “Confidential Information” and as “Highly Confidential InformationAttorneys’ Eyes Only” under the terms of the Protective Order only if such counsel in good faith
believes that such Discovery Material contains such information and is subject to protection under
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c). The designation by any Designating Party of any Discovery
Material as “Confidential Information” or “Highly Confidential Information- Attorneys’ Eyes Only”
shall constitute a representation that an attorney for the Designating Party reasonably believes there
is a valid basis for such designation”. Protective Order at Paragraph 2.

1

Motion to Seal (Dkt. 155).” Dkt. 205. Exhibit A to Mr. Jindal’s declaration (Dkt. 205-1) is a

2

redacted copy of Exhibit 7 to the Declaration of Ryan Dykal (Dkt. 157-1). Exhibit A “remove[s]

3

only the Oracle employee names from Oracle’s Initial Disclosure” and “five Rimini customer names

4

that . . . were not relevant to Rimini’s use of the exhibit and that . . . Rimini considers to be

5

confidential.” Dkt. 205 (emphasis added).

6
7

It is undisputed that the five Rimini clients redacted by Oracle in Exhibit A to Mr.
Jindal’s declaration have not been disclosed to the public.

8

On April 19, the Court entered an Order stating, “No later than April 27, 2016, Oracle

9

SHALL FILE A REDACTED VERSION OF EXHIBIT 7, which obscures only the employee names

10

on its FRCP 26(s) disclosures.” (Dkt. 208). The Court’s Order does not expressly address the five

11

non-public Rimini client names.

12

The identities of non-public Rimini clients are highly confidential and proprietary

13

competitive business information. Rimini, therefore, requests that the names of the five Rimini

14

Clients removed in Exhibit A to Mr. Jindal’s declaration be redacted when Oracle publicly files

15

Exhibit 7 pursuant to the Court’s April 19 Order.2

16

Oracle does not oppose this motion.

17

For the foregoing reasons, Rimini respectfully requests that the Court enter an Order

18

as follows:

19

1.

The unredacted Exhibit 7 (Dkt. #157-1), attached to the Declaration of Ryan Dykal

20

(Dkt. #157) as an exhibit to the parties’ Joint Status Report (Dkt. #156), shall remain

21

under seal.

The Protective Order provides that: “Counsel for any Designating Party may designate any
Discovery Material as ‘Confidential Information’ or ‘Highly Confidential Information – Attorneys’
Eyes Only’ under the terms of this Protective Order only if such counsel in good faith believes that
such Discovery Material contains such information and is subject to protection under Federal
Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c). The designation by any Designating Party of any Discovery
Material as ‘Confidential Information’ or ‘Highly Confidential Information –Attorneys’ Eyes Only’
shall constitute a representation that an attorney for the Designating Party reasonably believes there
is a valid basis for such designation.” Protective Order ¶ 2 (emphasis supplied).
