DECLARATION OF DAMALI A. TAYLOR

I, Damali A. Taylor, declare: 

1. I am a counsel with O’Melveny & Myers, attorneys for Defendants County 

of Contra Costa, Gus S. Kramer, and Lori Koch. I make this Declaration in support of 

Defendants’ Administrative Motion for Leave to File under Seal certain documents in 

support of Defendants’ Motions for Summary Judgment. 

2. On February 1, 2008, this Court entered an Order approving, in part, a 

Stipulated Confidentiality Agreement and Protective Order in this matter. 

3. The Order governs all documents, testimony, and other information 

(collectively, “Information”) produced or disclosed in the course of this litigation by any 

party. 

4. The Court’s Order states that any party may in good faith designate any 

Information produced or disclosed in the course of this litigation as “Confidential 

Information” for any reason under the terms of the Order. 

5. Good cause exists to file the documents identified in Defendants’ 

Administrative Motion for Leave to File Under Seal because each document has been 

designated Confidential by Defendants pursuant to the Court’s Order, and each document 

supports Defendants’ Motions for Summary Judgment. 

6. A true and correct copy of the documents Defendants seeks to file under 

seal will be submitted to the Court pursuant to Rule 79-5(b). 

I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California and the 

United States that the foregoing is true and correct. 

Executed this 22nd day of April 2008 at San Francisco, California.
