ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF’S

MOTION TO FILE UNDER SEAL

PLAINTIFF’S MOTION IN LIMINE NO. 2

AND SUPPORTING DECLARATION;

DIRECTIONS TO PLAINTIFF TO FILE IN

PUBLIC RECORD REDACTED

VERSIONS

Before the Court is plaintiff’s “Administrative Motion to File Under Seal its Motion In

Limine No. 2 to Preclude Certain Topics of Testimony by HP’s Damages Expert, Suzanne

Stuckwisch, and Supporting Declaration and Exhibits,” filed February 1, 2010.

Because the above-referenced documents discuss alleged trade secrets, the motion

is hereby GRANTED, and the Clerk of the Court is hereby DIRECTED to file under seal the

unredacted versions of plaintiff’s Motion in Limine No. 2 and the Declaration of Frederick

Geonetta in Support of Plaintiff’s Motion in Limine No. 2.

A request to file a document under seal “must be narrowly tailored to seek sealing

only of sealable material,” see Civil L.R. 79-5(a), however, and plaintiff does not argue that

the entirety of Motion in Limine No. 2 and the supporting declaration and exhibits consists

of sealable material. Accordingly, plaintiff is hereby DIRECTED to file in the public record,
