 The parties are instructed to refer to the specific 1

instructions below as to the proper mechanism for filing.

The court is persuaded that compelling reasons

support the sealing of LensCrafters' revenue and

financial data that are not known to its competitors or

to the public. This data constitutes proprietary

information. Nonetheless, the documents which the

parties request be sealed far exceed the mere recitation

of revenue and financial data. This is especially so in

the tentatively sealed briefs filed in this case. 

In order to make public most of the information

involved in these dispositive motions, the court intends

to order parties to electronically file all tentatively 1

sealed documents redacting any references to or analysis

of LensCrafters' revenue and financial data from which

the proprietary data could be determined. All publically

available data and most analysis should remain. Only the

numerical data and any analysis from which a reader

could deduce the numerical data shall be redacted. Upon

this court's receipt of these redacted filings, the

court will decide whether the redaction exceeds the

narrow bounds of this request. The parties will be

cautioned to narrowly interpret the extent of their

redactions as this court intends to make public as much

information as is appropriate under the circumstances.

For the foregoing reasons, the court orders as follows:

(1) The parties shall re-file their tentatively sealed

documents in the following manner: Mail two compact

discs (“CDs”) to the Clerk of Court. The first CD should

be labeled “Sealed Filings,” and include complete PDF

versions of all sealed documents. The second CD should

be labeled “Redacted Filings,” and include redacted PDF

versions of all sealed documents. With each CD, the

parties shall enclose a letter listing all the documents

on each CD. This list shall include a short title for

the document, the file name for the document, as saved

on the CD, and the date upon which the document was

documents to Ana Rivas, Courtroom Deputy, at (916) 930-

4133.

(2) The parties shall file the sealed documents as described

above within seven (7) days of the issuance of this

order.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: June 2, 2010.
