Defendant Qualcomm Incorporated (“Qualcomm”) respectfully submits this Notice 

regarding the Joint Administrative Motions To Seal filed by the parties on September 15 and 

September 19, 2018. (ECF Nos. 854, 862.)

Qualcomm respectfully informs the Court that the Government of France publicly 

announced today, September 19, that Qualcomm’s expert, Professor Bénédicte FauvarqueCosson, has been appointed as a judge of the Conseil d’État, effective October 1, 2018.

1

 

Qualcomm therefore files as attachments to this Notice redacted versions of the motion papers 

that are sought to be filed under seal in the parties’ Joint Administrative Motions To Seal (ECF 

Nos. 854-4, 854-8, 862-4). Qualcomm has left unredacted information that is no longer 

confidential as a result of the announcement.

2

 

Because certain information in the papers sought to be filed under seal remains

confidential following the public announcement, Qualcomm respectfully requests that the 

unredacted motion papers be filed under seal for the reasons stated in the parties’ Joint 

Administrative Motions To Seal (ECF Nos. 854, 862) and in the accompanying Declarations in 

support of sealing (ECF Nos. 854-2, 854-4, 862-2). 

The redacted information sought to be sealed is:

 Qualcomm’s Motion for Leave To Take the Trial Deposition of an Imminently 

Unavailable Witness (ECF No. 854-8): page 1, line 10 (only the portion between 

“take effect” and “October 1, 2018”; page 1, lines 12-13 (only the portion after 

“matter” through the end of that sentence); page 1, line 23 (only the portion 

between “becomes effective” and “on October 1”; page 1, line 24 (only the portion 

after “could occur on” through the end of line 24); page 2, line 13 (only the portion

https://www.gouvernement.fr/conseil-des-ministres/2018-09-19/mesures-d-ordre-individuel

(accessed Sept. 19, 2018).

2 As a result of the public announcement of Prof. Fauvarque-Cosson’s appointment, Qualcomm is 

no longer requesting that the Exhibit to the FTC’s Opposition, the transcript of Prof. FauvarqueCosson’s deposition (ECF No. 862-5), be filed under seal and files an unredacted copy of that 

Exhibit as an attachment to this Notice.
