The court has filed this order under seal. If either party believes that any portion discloses confidential information, the party must file an administrative motion to file under seal within 14 days of this order. The motion must be accompanied by an unredacted version of the order, filed under seal, highlighting the portions of the order that the party seeks to seal. The motion must also be accompanied by a declaration establishing that such portions of the order are sealable. No proposed order or redacted version of the order need be filed. If neither party moves to seal any part of this order with 14 days, this order will be made public in its entirety.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
