ON PETITION

ORDER

The court considers whether certain material in the appendix for petitioner’s writ of mandamus and the supporting briefs should maintain confidential marking.

Although this court does allow for confidential filings, Fed. Cir. R. 28(d), there “is a strong presumption in favor of a common law right of public access to court proceedings.” In re Violation of Rule 28(D), 635 F.3d 1352, 1356 (Fed.Cir. 2011). Petitioners have included a document at A509-26 that has been marked confidential in its entirety. In addition, both petitioners and respondents identify large portions of their briefs as confidential, including Respondent’s response at page 11-16 and Petitioner’s reply at pages 2-7. In the interest of public access, the court requests that the parties submit a modified nonconfidential version of these appendix pages and briefs. The submission should delete only the specific information that can legitimately be kept confidential.

*905 Accordingly,

It Is Ordered That:

Absence a receipt of a modified nonconfidential version of the above-identified appendix pages and briefs within 7 days of the date of filing of this order, this court will make publicly available a document reflecting that confidential material and may use such material in its public disposition.
