UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SAN JOSE DIVISION

IPTRONICS INC., et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

AVAGO TECHNOLOGIES U.S., INC., et 

al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 14-cv-05647-BLF 

ORDER REGARDING 

ADMINISTRATIVE MOTION TO FILE 

UNDER SEAL

[Re: ECF 3]

Before the Court is the Administrative Motion to File Document Under Seal by Plaintiffs 

IPTronics, Inc. and Mellanox Technologies Denmark APS, whereby Plaintiffs seek to seal certain 

portions of their Complaint that contain information designated “confidential” by Defendants 

pursuant to protective orders entered in other litigation between the parties. Admin. Mot., ECF 3. 

As this action was initiated on December 29, 2014, Defendants have not yet appeared. 

Civil Local Rule 79-5(e) provides that when a party seeks to seal information designated 

confidential by another party, the designating party shall provide a declaration in support of 

sealing within 4 days of the filing of the administrative sealing request. Given the peculiar posture 

of this sealing request, the Court shall permit Defendants to file a supporting declaration within 

four (4) days of the date when they make their initial appearance. Failure to file a declaration by 

this extended deadline shall result in an order denying the sealing request pursuant to Civil Local 

Rule 79-5(e)(2). Plaintiffs are ordered to certify service of this order on Defendants.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 23, 2015
