ORDER

After considering the Miscellaneous Administrative Request of Defendants and CounterPlaintiffs Victor Company of Japan, Inc. ("JVC") and JVC Components (Thailand) Co., Ltd., ("JCT")

for an order allowing them to file documents under seal, and Declaration of Nidec Corporation's Counsel

Concerning JVC's Miscellaneous Request to File Documents under Seal, the Court hereby GRANTS

in part and DENIES in part JVC's and JCT's request. 

Pursuant to Civil L.R. 79-5(d), when a party files a document that has been designated

confidential by another party pursuant to a protective order and submits an administrative motion for

a sealing order, the designating party must file with the Court and serve a declaration establishing that

the designated information is sealable or must withdraw the designation of confidentiality. JVC and

JCT filed a Motion Seeking Leave to Amend JVC's Counterclaim and a Declaration of Charles Macedo

in support thereof, which attached Confidential Exhibits 1 through 9. JVC and JTC request to file the

exhibits under seal because they were designated as confidential or highly confidential by Nidec

Corporation pursuant to a protective order. JVC and JTC also request to file the Motion under seal

because it refers to the confidential or highly confidential exhibits attached to the Declaration of Charles

Macedo. Dion M. Bregman, counsel for the designating party Nidec Corporation, filed a declaration,
