United States District Court

Northern District of California

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SAN JOSE DIVISION

ASUS COMPUTER INTERNATIONAL, et 

al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

INTERDIGITAL, INC., et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 15-cv-01716-BLF 

ORDER GRANTING 

ADMINISTRATIVE MOTION TO FILE 

UNDER SEAL

[Re: ECF 111]

Defendants move to file under seal portions of the Answer and Counterclaim. ECF 111, 

Ex. A. Defendants seek to redact portions of the Answer and Counterclaim that reference the 

parties’ Patent License Agreement, which the Court has previously found sealable under the 

“compelling reasons” standard set forth in Ctr. for Auto Safety v. Chrysler Grp., LLC, 809 F.3d 

1092, 1101-02 (9th Cir. 2016). See ECF 110. 

The Court has reviewed Defendants’ proposed redactions at lines 21-24 on page 22 of 

Exhibit A, and finds that they are narrowly tailored and seek only to seal confidential information, 

consistent with Civil Local Rule 79-5(d)(1)(C). As such, Defendants’ motion to file this 

document under seal is GRANTED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: September 16, 2016
