MDL. No. 1827

ORDER RE: TATUNG COMPANY OF

AMERICA’S SUPPLEMENTAL

SUBMISSION REGARDING

TRANSLATED DOCUMENTS

On April 13, 2010, Tatung Company of America (“TUS”) filed the Declaration of Patrick Ahern

to substantiate its assertion of attorney work-product protection for TUS’s translations of foreignlanguage documents not provided to the U.S. Department of Justice. (Docket No. 1683). Plaintiffs did

not file a response to defendant’s submission.

The Court has reviewed Mr. Ahern’s declaration and finds that TUS has shown that the

translations constitute opinion work product. The Court further finds that TUS has made an adequate

showing of good cause for why it did not file a declaration substantiating its claim of attorney work

product earlier. Accordingly, the translations at issue are protected and TUS need not produce those

documents to plaintiffs.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
