Bank of America Corporation, et al., 1:18-cv-10364 Dear Judge Aaron: Pursuant to Rules I.B.1 and I.D of Judge Schofield’s Individual Rules and Procedures for Civil Cases, we respectfully seek leave to file under seal certain supporting papers and exhibits to Plaintiffs’ Motion for Issuance of a Hague Convention Request for International Judicial Assistance to Take Testimony Overseas. Pursuant to Rule I.D.3, this motion and supporting papers have been publicly filed with the redactions, and unredacted versions have been electronically filed under seal and linked to this application. This request asks the Court to seal the Third Amended Complaint (already filed under seal), documents that reference numerous chat transcripts that Defendants produced and designated as confidential, copies of the chat transcripts, and personal information about the proposed deponent. Given Defendants designated these materials as “confidential,” supporting papers include documents already filed under seal, and sensitive personal information of the deponent is contained within these papers, Plaintiffs respectfully request that the Court grant Plaintiffs permission to file the requested documents in redacted form on ECF and in unredacted form under seal. quinn emanuel urquhart & sullivan, lip ATLANTA | AUSTIN | BOSTON | BRUSSELS | CHICAGO | HAMBURG | HONG KONG | HOUSTON | LONDON | LOS ANGELES | MANNHEIM | MIAMI | RATINITCUL | NIETTITITT V-T A DERENICE !/|NEWUS VOR | PARTS | PERTH |CATTIAKVE CITV |!
