The Court finds that each of the above-listed documents contains information relating 6 to plaintiffs treatment at Napa State Hospital, and that such information cannot reasonably be 7 redacted from any of the above-listed documents. The Court concludes that such information is 8 plaintiffs confidential and protected information; that Defendants may disclose such information 9 to the Court and to plaintiff for the purposes of defending themselves against plaintiffs 10 allegations in this action; and that plaintiffs privacy interest in such information outweighs any 11 interest in allowing the disclosure of such information to the general public. See 45 C.F.R. § 12 160.101 et seq. 164.102 et seq.; Cal. Welf. Inst. Code § 5328.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
