Defendants.

THIS MATTER comes before the Court pursuant to the Defendants’ recent submission

17

of documents for in camera review. (Dkt. Nos. 572, 579.) Finding that Defendants’ submissions

18

once again make the Court’s in camera review unnecessarily difficult and fail to comply with

19

previous Orders, Defendants are ORDERED to submit to Plaintiffs and the Court a privilege

20

log that identifies the document, date, DoD number, and PrivWithhold number for each

21

document submitted for in camera review. The privilege log shall be filed on the docket and

22

submitted to the Court as an Excel Spreadsheet by September 14, 2020.

This is not the first time the Court has ordered Defendants to submit courtesy copies with
in camera filings and corresponding privilege logs with the information outlined above. (See
