No. C 07-4485 CW
________________________________/
Defendant EMC Mortgage LLC, formerly known as EMC Mortgage
13
Corporation, moves to file under seal the declaration of LeAnn
14
Pedersen Pope offered in support of EMC’s omnibus motion to
15
decertify the class, motion for summary judgment and opposition to
16
Plaintiffs Armando and Melania Plascencia’s motion for partial
17
summary judgment and its motions to exclude the testimony of
18
Leonard Lyons and Jonathan Macey.
EMC seeks to file the Pope
19
declaration, including all attached exhibits, under seal in its
20
entirety.
21
In EMC’s declaration in support of its motion to seal, it
22
states that it has filed separately in the public record the
23
declaration of Susan Miller Overbey, to which it has attached
24
redacted versions of the same exhibits attached to the Pope
25
declaration.

See

Civil Local Rule 79-5(c) provides that, when a party seek to

file a portion of a document under seal, counsel must, among other
3
things, lodge a chambers copy of the entire document “with the
4
sealable portions identified.”

also Civil Local Rule 79-5(c)(3) (“The sealable portions of the

declaration are not given the same exhibit letters as the
17
corresponding exhibits attached to the Overbey declaration.
18
Because a page-by-page comparison of the exhibits attached to the
19
two declarations would require a large and unnecessary expenditure
20
of judicial resources, the Court declines to engage in this task
21
and will not excuse EMC’s violation of the Civil Local Rules.
It appears to request the Court to compare the exhibits
