Re:

United States ex rel. Bassan v. Omnicare, Inc., No. 15 Civ. 4179 (CM) (VF)

Dear Judge Figueredo:
Pursuant to Rule I.g of Your Honor’s Individual Practices and the Protective Order in this
matter (Dkt. No. 102), we write respectfully on behalf of Defendants to request the Court’s
permission to file under seal all exhibits to their letter responding to the government’s motion (Dkt.
No. 242).
As the government laid out in its recent letter motion to seal, see Dkt. No. 339, the
Protective Order provides a process for filing under seal certain documents designated as subject
to the Protective Order, see Dkt. No. 102, ¶ 19. In following that process, Defendants request that
the Court grant leave to file Exhibits 1–13 to their response letter under seal, as Defendants are the
producing parties for all materials cited as exhibits. See id.
Defendants also respectfully request the Court seal the exhibits for which it granted a
temporary 14-day seal. See Dkt. No. 343. Those materials have substantial overlap with the
materials Defendants are requesting to file under seal in its letter response today. See Dkt. No.
102, ¶ 19.
We appreciate the Court’s consideration.
Sincerely,

Benjamin Hazelwood
October 5, 2023
The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to terminate
the motion at ECF No. 345.
