ORDER OVERRULING PLAINTIFFS’

OBJECTION TO MAGISTRATE JUDGE

JOSEPH C. SPERO’S ORDER

OVERRULING PLAINTIFFS’

OBJECTION TO SPECIAL MASTER

EDWARD A. INFANTE’S ORDER

GRANTING IN PART AND DENYING IN

PART PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION TO

COMPEL DOCUMENTS CONTAINED

IN DEFENDANTS’ PRIVILEGE AND

REDACTION LOG

On March 14, 2007, Plaintiffs in this matter filed an Objection To Magistrate Judge Joseph

C. Spero’s Order Overruling Plaintiffs’ Objection To Special Master Edward A. Infante’s Order

Granting In Part And Denying In Part Plaintiffs’ Motion To Compel Documents Contained In

Defendants’ Privilege And Redaction Log. (Docket No. 713.) The Objection filed by Plaintiff

challenges Magistrate Judge Spero’s ruling affirming Special Master Infante’s ruling denying

Plaintiff’s motion to compel to the extent it sought production in unredacted form, or alternatively a

privilege log regarding such redactions, of documents produced in an earlier derivative litigation.

Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(a) and Local Rule 72-2, because the ruling

objected to is a discovery ruling on a nondispositive matter, this Court considers Plaintiffs’

objections but will only “modify or set aside any portion of the magistrate judge’s order found to be

clearly erroneous or contrary to law.” The Court has reviewed Plaintiffs’ Objections as well as the

materials submitted to Magistrate Judge Spero in connection with his Order. Good cause appearing,

this Court hereby OVERRULES Plaintiffs’ present Objection. The Court finds no clear error in the

findings of the Special Master and Magistrate Judge and adopts their reasoning as sound. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
