LOCAL RULES FOR A LIMITED
PURPOSE

in the interests of justice and

judicial economy for the limited purpose of allowing Bartech to re-file its Motion for a Preliminary

Injunction, Reply in support thereof, and supporting declarations and exhibits concurrently with its
Renewed Motion to Seal pursuant to
. See ECF Nos. 16, 17, 47, 67,
8 68, 71, 72, 80.1 In particular, New Local Rules IA 7-3, IA 10-1, IA 10-3, IA 10-5, 7-3 each require
9
10
Bartech to alter the contents of its Motion for a Preliminary Injunction, originally filed January 14,
2016, and Reply in support thereof, originally filed February 16, 2016, as well as supporting
11
declarations and exhibits associated with these filings. ECF Nos. 16, 47. The Court has already held
12
13
a two-
s Motion for a Preliminary Injunction, thus a suspension of
14
the New Local Rules would serve the interests of justice and judicial economy by enabling the Court
15
to rule on the Motion for a Preliminary Injunction as briefed and argued before the Court. This Motion
16
is based upon the following Memorandum of Points and Authorities.

See ECF Nos. 16, 17, 47, 67, 68, 71, 72, 80.

7
In particular, New Local Rules IA 7-3, IA 10-1, IA 10-3, IA 10-5, 7-3 each require Bartech to
8 alter the content of the above filings. For example, Bartech originally filed its thirty (30) page Motion
9
for a Preliminary Injunction in compliance with the prior version of the Local Rules. The New Local
10
11
prior limit of thirty (30) pages to the new limit of twenty-four (24) pages. L.R. 7-3. Moreover, Bartech
12
13
14
attached relevant excerpts of deposition transcripts to its Motion for a Preliminary Injunction and
referenced the original pagination of same in its Memorandum of Points and Authorities. See, e.g.,
15 ECF No. 16 at 7 & Exs. 4, 5. New Local Rule IA 10-1(a)(5) requires all filed documents to be
16 numbered consecutively, which, if applied, would cause confusion because the excerpts attached by
17
Bartech contain four (4) pages of testimony per one (1) page of each exhibit.2
18
, Reply in
19
support thereof, and supporting declarations and exhibits would thus require substantial revision of a
20
21
fully briefed and argued motion that has already been the subject of a two-day evidentiary hearing
22 before the Court. Therefore, the interests of justice and judicial economy are best served by a
23
suspension of the New Local Rules to enable Bartech to re-file its Motion for a Preliminary Injunction
24 and Reply in support thereof, as well as attendant supporting declarations and exhibits, without altering
25
the contents of these documents.
