United States District Court

Northern District of California

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

BETTY DUKES, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

WAL-MART STORES, INC.,

Defendant.

Case No. 01-cv-02252-CRB (JSC)

ORDER RE: DISCOVERY LETTER 

BRIEF

Re: Dkt. Nos. 1004, 1006

Now pending before the Court is the parties’ Joint Discovery Letter Brief (Dkt. No. 1006). 

Plaintiffs in Ladik, et al. v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., No. 13-CV-123 (W.D. WI), members of the 

former class in this action, seek to modify the protective order in this action to allow limited use of 

certain data previously produced in this action in the Ladkik case. As the Ladkik plaintiffs have 

demonstrated good cause for the modification, as such modification poses no burden on 

Defendant, and for the reasons stated on the record during oral argument, the protective order 

(Dkt. No. 35) is modified to allow the Ladik plaintiffs to access to the so-called Drogin data 

regarding the stores at which they were employed for the time period they were employed by WalMart. Any questions regarding the admissibility of this data should be presented to the District 

Court for the Western District of Wisconsin. This Order only authorizes use of data already in 

Plaintiff’s counsel’s possession in the Ladik case for whatever purpose the Ladik court allows.

This Order disposes of Docket Nos. 1004 and 1006.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: June 17, 2014
