DECISION AND ORDER
JONATHAN W. FELDMAN, Magistrate Judge.
Currently pending before the Court are the following motions: (1) defendants' unopposed motion to seal certain original marked exhibits (Docket # 36); (2) plaintiff's motion for a Protective Order (Docket # 39); (3) plaintiff's motion to extend certain discovery deadlines (Docket # 39); and (4) defendants' cross motion for costs and other relief (Docket # 42).
On September 5, 2017, the Court held a hearing, and arguments were heard from counsel on the motions. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Court made several findings on the record, resolving all pending motions. For the reasons set forth in the Court's oral decision, it is hereby
ORDERED that defendants' motion to seal the documents related to plaintiff's claim of inadvertent disclosure (Docket # 36) is granted. The Clerk of Court is directed to file under seal the certain original marked exhibits and working copies of the exhibits (containing privileged attorney work product information and notes), to be received from defense counsel Chad W. Flansburg, Esq.; and it is further
ORDERED that plaintiff's motion for a protective order is granted. The Court finds that the approximately twenty-five emails containing privileged communication that were disclosed by the third-party reviewer were inadvertently disclosed, and did not constitute a waiver of attorney-client privilege; and it is further
ORDERED that plaintiff's motion to extend the Scheduling Order deadlines to allow for additional discovery is denied. The parties have agreed to, and the Court will file a Final Scheduling Order; and it is further
ORDERED that defendants' cross-motion for costs and other relief is denied.
SO ORDERED.
