Any party may object to the designation of particular Information as "Confidential Information" or "Highly Confidential Information--Attorneys Eyes Only" by giving written notice to the producing party and to all other parties. Such notice shall identify with specificity the Information to which the objection is directed and the basis of the objection. If any party challenges a designation of Information as Confidential Information or Highly Confidential Information--Attorneys Eyes Only and such dispute cannot be resolved by the parties within seven (7) business days of receipt of such notice, the objecting party may file a motion with the Court for a ruling that certain Information designated as Confidential Information or Highly Confidential Information--Attorneys Eyes Only is not entitled to confidential treatment under this Order.
