MINUTE ORDER
ENTERED BY MAGISTRATE JUDGE KRISTEN L. MIX
This matter is before the Court on the Ricoh Defendants' Unopposed Motion to Restrict Access [Docket No. 357; Filed July 5, 2012]; Plaintiff BIAX's Motion to Restrict Access (unopposed) [Docket No. 359; Filed July 5, 2012]; Defendant HP's Unopposed Motion to Restrict Access [Docket No. 362; Filed July 5, 2012]; and the Ricoh Defendants' Motion for Leave to File a Reply in Support of its Motion to Compel (Dkt. #330) [Docket No. 365; Filed July 9, 2012] ("Motion for Leave").
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Ricoh Defendants' Motion for Leave [#365] is GRANTED. Although BIAX opposes the requested relief, the Court will permit this reply, limited to no more than five pages, and due on or before July 17, 2012.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Motions to Restrict [## 357, 359, 362] are GRANTED. In accordance with D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.2C., the Motions were publicly posted to allow for any objections to the sealing of the documents. No timely objections were filed. Pursuant to D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.2, the Court finds that the presumption of public access to Court files is outweighed by the parties' interest in privacy, and the parties have shown that a less restrictive alternative is not practicable. Accordingly,
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court is directed to maintain the following documents UNDER RESTRICTION at LEVEL 1: Defendant Ricoh's Opposition to BIAX's Motion to Compel Discovery and accompanying Exhibits C, D, E, F, H, I, J, and L located at Docket No. 355; and Plaintiff BIAX's Opposition to Ricoh's Motion to Compel Compliance by BIAX with the Court's Order (Dkt. No. 304) Regarding Interrogatory Responses and accompanying Exhibits 1-2 and 9-14 located at Docket No. 360.
Level 1 limits access to the documents to the parties and the Court. See D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.2B.5.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court is directed to maintain the following documents UNDER RESTRICTION at LEVEL 2: Defendant HP's Response and accompanying Exhibits 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 located at Docket No. 361.
Level 2 limits access to the documents to the filing party and the Court. See D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.2B.5.
