11 In preparation for trial, the parties filed multiple motions in limine. In conjunction with filing their motions in limine, the parties requested that the Court seal several exhibits that the parties want to use to support their motion in limine briefing. See Doc. Nos. 52, 55, 58, 63, 65, 67. These requests were the parties’ “first” batch of requests to seal. In the first batch of requests, the parties failed to even attempt to show good cause for sealing exhibits to their motions in limine. Consequently, the Court denied the requests and advised the parties of the good cause sealing standard laid forth by the Ninth Circuit, Rule 26(c)(1) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Local Rule 141, and the Court’s stipulated protective order in this lawsuit. See Doc.
