COME NOW the Defendants, FKP Franklin Senior Living Tenant, LLC d/b/a Belvedere Commons of Franklin and Grace Management, Inc., in the above styled and referenced matter, through their undersigned counsel, and pursuant to the FEDERAL RULES OF CIVIL PROCEDURE, file this their Motion for Emergency Protective Order and in support thereof state as follows:
1. On August 20, 2012, the Plaintiff filed her Motion to Compel bearing document number 26.

In Plaintiff's Motion to Compel, she has referred to another resident from Belvedere Commons by name who is not a party to this cause of action throughout said motion.
2. Due to the fact that the other resident is not a party to this cause of action, the Defendants respectfully request that the Plaintiff's Motion to Compel, document number 26, be removed from the PACER electronic filing and be kept under seal. The Defendants have raised objections in depositions as well as in written discovery as to providing any information pertaining to residents at Belvedere Commons other than Mr. Jones. The Defendants' concerns are based upon and supported by the Health Information Privacy and Portability Act otherwise known as HIPAA.
