UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA

MIAMI DIVISION

CASE NO. 1:22-cv-24023-SCOLA/GOODMAN

KENNETH C. GRIFFIN,

Plaintiff,

v.

INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE and U.S.

DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY,

Defendants.

TIME SENSITIVE UNOPPOSED MOTION TO PARTIALLY SEAL

EXHIBIT 1 TO MOTION TO COMPEL

Pursuant to Southern District of Florida Local Rule 5.4 and this Court’s stipulated

Protective Order, ECF 86, Plaintiff Kenneth C. Griffin (“Mr. Griffin”) respectfully moves this

Court to seal pages 333 to 396 of ECF 111-2, which is Exhibit 1 to Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel

Pursuant to the Court’s Administrative Order (ECF 111), and states as follows:

On April 19, 2024, counsel for Defendants Internal Revenue Service and U.S. Department

of Treasury (the “Government”) informed counsel for Mr. Griffin that the Government “agree[s]

you can file the transcript [of Mr. Charles Edward Littlejohn’s deposition] on the public docket as

long as the portions that are designated confidential are redacted.” Accordingly, when Mr. Griffin

filed his Motion to Compel on April 24, he included the redacted transcript of Mr. Littlejohn’s

deposition. The Government agrees that the transcript is “redacted consistent with the

confidentiality designations.” However, the Government now asks that pages 333 to 396 of the

transcript (which contains the word index for the transcript) also be sealed, and Mr. Griffin agrees

that those pages should be sealed pending the Court’s adjudication of the parties’ confidentiality

dispute. Sealing pages 333 to 396 of the transcript will not cause any additional testimony to be

withheld from the public, and good cause exists to seal those pages.

WHEREFORE, Mr. Griffin respectfully requests that the Court grant this motion. A

proposed order granting the relief requested herein is attached as Exhibit A.

CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE WITH LOCAL RULE 7.1(a)(3)

Undersigned counsel conferred with counsel for Defendants by email on April 25, 2024,

and consents to Defendants’ request to have pages 333 to 396 of ECF 111-2 temporarily sealed

from the public view.
