DIRECTIONS TO POWER

INTEGRATIONS

Before the Court is an administrative motion to file under seal, filed September 14,

2015, by plaintiff Power Integrations, Inc. (“Power Integrations”), pursuant to Civil Local

Rule 79-5, by which Power Integrations seeks permission to seal the entirety of Exhibits 1

Testimony of Arthur W. Kelley and Charles L. Colby,” as well as portions of said Opposition

that make reference to said exhibits. 

By order filed October 20, 2015, the Court deferred ruling on the administrative

motion, and directed each party to file a supplemental response identifying the portions of

said exhibits and Opposition that contain that party’s confidential information. On

November 3, 2015, the parties timely filed their supplemental responses. Having read and

considered the supplemental responses, the Court hereby rules as follows.

Headley Declaration or the related portions of the Opposition, the administrative motion is

hereby DENIED to the extent it seeks permission to seal said material. Power Integrations

is hereby DIRECTED to file in the public record, no later than February 2, 2016, Exhibit 1

identified in the parties’ supplemental responses as sealable material. Accordingly, the

Court hereby GRANTS the administrative motion to the extent it seeks to seal portions of

Exhibit 2 to the Headley Declaration, and Power Integrations is hereby DIRECTED to file in

the public record, no later than February 2, 2016, a version of said exhibit in which the

parties’ confidential material, as identified in their respective supplemental responses, is

redacted.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
