ORDER REQUIRING SUPPLEMENTAL DOCUMENTS Re: Dkt. Nos. 114, 116, 119
KANDIS A. WESTMORE, Magistrate Judge.
On June 7 and 8, 2018, the parties filed five joint discovery letters. (Dkt. Nos. 114-117, 119.) Having reviewed the discovery letters, the Court requires the following additional documents:
(1) BAIRD 429-436, referred to at Docket No. 114, p. 3.
(2) The specific excerpts of the Short-Term Investment Funds Overview and Guidelines ("STIF Guidelines") which Defendants assert "establish that BTC invests the securities lending cash collateral in the BTC-managed STIFs at client direction, according to fees, investment objectives, and risk guidelines set forth in the governing documents for the BlackRock CTIs." (Dkt. No. 119 at 4.) Only the relevant pages, with the specific passages highlighted, shall be provided; filing of the entirety of the STIF Guidelines will be rejected. See Indep. Towers of Wash. v. Washington, 350 F.3d 925, 929 (9th Cir. 2003) ("As the Seventh Circuit observed in its now familiar maxim, `judges are not like pigs, hunting for truffles buried in briefs.'" (quoting United States v. Dunkel, 927 F.2d 955, 956 (7th Cir. 1991))).1
The required documents must be filed on the docket by July 6, 2018.
The Court also requires chambers copies of the following documents for in camera review:
(1) Item Nos. 39 and 61-70 listed in Defendants' privilege log, attached to Docket No. 116 as "Attachment A." The materials shall be properly indexed with Bates numbers and tabbed so that they are easily identifiable to the corresponding privilege log entry. With respect to documents that were produced to Plaintiff but redacted, the redacted portions must be highlighted.
Defendants shall coordinate the submission of the materials for in camera review with Courtroom Deputy Susan Imbriani, who may be reached at (510) 637-3525. Defendants shall ensure that the Court receives the materials by July 6, 2018. The Court may compel production of these materials if Defendants fail to comply with any of the foregoing. If Defendants do not make arrangements to retrieve the materials after the Court has completed its in camera review, the Court will dispose of the materials.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
