United States' Motion for the Filing of Certain Documents Under Seal Pursuant toProtective Order

Whereas, the Court in this matter entered a Protective Order on March 22, 1999, governing the pretrial designation and use of confidential information in this action;

And whereas, defendants have asked, pursuant to Section C(4) of that Order, that the deposition testimony of Tracy Noll, Exhibit No. 25 which the plaintiff previously filed in this matter in support of its Motion for a Preliminary Injunction and cited in its memorandum, at 33-34, in support of its Motion for the same, be given an interim designation of "confidential," pending defendants' determination of confidentiality of particular pages and lines pursuant to Section C(5) of the Order;

And whereas, documents so designated, if filed with the Court, shall be filed, pursuant to Section H of that Order, under seal pending Section C(5) designations;

Plaintiff respectfully moves this Court for an Order directing the Clerk of the Court to file under seal the following documents which the plaintiff has previously filed in support of its Motion for a Preliminary Injunction in this matter: Exhibit No. 25 and the Memorandum of United States in Support of Its Motion For Preliminary Injunction. A redacted, public, version of the Memorandum is being filed contemporaneously with this Motion.

Finally, plaintiff notes that Mr. Noll's testimony was obtained by plaintiff pursuant to the Antitrust Civil Process Act, 15 U.S.C. §1311, et. seq., which also provides that such testimony may be disclosed in connection with any case (15 U.S.C. §1313(d)(1)) and that it was used pursuant to those provisions; moreover, if and when defendants designate particular pages and lines of Mr. Noll's testimony as confidential pursuant to Section C(5) of the Order, the plaintiff preserves its right, pursuant to Section I of the Order, to apply to the Court for a ruling that such pages and lines are not entitled to confidential treatment.

A proposed Order is attached. This motion is made by the United States at the request of the defendants and pursuant to the Protective Order; a supporting memorandum is therefore not attached.

This will certify that a true and correct copy of the foregoing, together with a copy of any Order or Judgment the United States proposes in connection therewith, has been served by hand to:

Suiza Foods Corporation

And, as agreed between plaintiff and recipient, by telecopier and by Federal Express to:

On this the _24_ day of March, 1999.
