Lyon, et al. v. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, et al., Case No.: 13-cv-05878 EMC 

JOINT STIPULATION REGARDING REDACTION OF NAMES EXCEPT FOR INITIALS AND 

[PROPOSED] ORDER 

The Parties to this action hereby agree to the following regarding the redaction of the 

names of certain declarants in this litigation as permitted by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 

Rule 5.2(e). WHEREAS: 

Many Plaintiff class members are seeking or have sought relief from removal based on 

fear of persecution and in their home countries or based on other grounds that could subject them 

to retaliation here or abroad; 

Plaintiff class members seeking such relief may have statutory privacy rights to protect 

them from harm. See e.g. 8 C.F.R. §§ 208.6, 1208.6 (regulations protecting an asylum-seeker’s 

right to confidentiality); 

Plaintiff class members seek to submit declarations in support of Plaintiffs’ motion for 

summary judgment, some of which include references to statutorily protected claims for relief or 

sensitive facts that create concern regarding harassment and retaliation; and 

The Parties agree that protecting Plaintiff class members from potential harm related to 

disclosure of their identities and the subject matter of their immigration cases can be achieved 

without prejudice to Defendants by substituting initials for class member witnesses’ full names 

in the parties’ briefs and evidentiary submissions. 

NOW THEREFORE, the Parties stipulate that: 

1. Papers and evidence filed in the public record will be redacted to reveal only 

initials of Plaintiff class member witnesses who are not named representatives; 

2. The names of class representatives will not be redacted; 

3. In conjunction with Plaintiffs’ Motion for Summary Judgment, Plaintiffs will file 

under seal a reference list of the declarants’ full names and corresponding initials, pursuant to 

Fed. R. Civ. Pro. 5.2(g); and 

4. The Parties need not file unredacted versions of the papers and evidence filed in 

the public record in accordance with paragraph 1 under seal, serve unredacted versions of such 

papers or evidence upon each other, or provide such unredacted versions as courtesy copies to 

the Court.
