UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

The parties agreed that subpoenaed records related to Halonda Naff would be produced to the 

Court for an in camera review. All agreed that in the event the Court finds records that should be

finds no records should be disclosed, the Court will issue an order broadly outlining its findings and 

indicating that the subpoenas should be quashed.
