Wang v. Sussman et al., No. 1:24-cv-03987-AS
Dear Judge Subramanian:
We represent Defendants Sammy Sussman, Vox Media, LLC, and New York Media LLC
(collectively, “Defendants”), in the above-referenced action. In support of Defendants’ motion for
attorneys’ fees, Defendants are filing herewith their billing statements for this litigation. These
billing statements necessarily include descriptions of Defendants’ counsel’s work and include
privileged attorney client and attorney work product descriptions.
Particularly given that Plaintiff Liang Wang still can appeal the decision dismissing this
action, to protect these privileged communications from disclosure, Defendants are filing the
unredacted version of those billing statements as Exhibit E ex parte for the Court’s review. The
ex parte version of Exhibit E contains redactions for only those entries for which Defendants do
not seek attorneys’ fees. Pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 5.2(e) and Your Honor’s
Individual Practice Rule 11, Defendants respectfully request to concurrently file a public version
of Exhibit E with the descriptions of all time entries redacted. Those redaction boxes specify that
the redacted material is “PRIVILEGED AS A/C COMM. AND/OR WORK PRODUCT.”
The parties are not scheduled to appear before the court. I have conferred with counsel for
Plaintiff, who reserves their position.
Respectfully submitted,
Davis Wright Tremaine LLP
