IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KAREN MOE HUMPHREYS,

Plaintiff,

 v.

REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF

CALIFORNIA, et al.,

Defendants. /

No. C 04-03808 SI

ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S

MOTION TO VACATE AMENDED

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 

Plaintiff’s motion to vacate the protective order is DENIED, without prejudice, and the parties

are hereby ORDERED to meet and confer concerning defendants’ confidentiality designations. The

Court notes that defendants appear to have improperly designated a large number of documents as

confidential. Improperly designating documents as confidential places an enormous burden on both the

parties and, through the overuse of sealed filings, on the Court. Accordingly, the parties are instructed

to meet and confer regarding the documents that plaintiff believes have been improperly designated.

Any failure on defendants’ part to promptly address the problem of overdesignation will result in

sanctions.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: March 31, 2006
