RE: Jowa Pub. Emps.’ Ret. Sys. et al. v. Bank of Am. Corp. et al.,
No. 17-cv-6221 (KPF/SLC)
Dear Magistrate Judge Cave:
Defendants respectfully request permission to redact references to confidential material in
Defendants’ letter-opposition to Plaintiffs’ motion for reconsideration of this Court’s order
granting Defendants permission to file a sur-reply in opposition to Plaintiffs’ motion for class
certification. The material Defendants propose to redact and file under seal consists solely of
references to expert materials that (1) have already been filed under seal pursuant to sealing
orders issued by Judge Failla and (11) were designated “Highly Confidential” by Plaintiffs
pursuant to the protective order issued by Judge Failla. The Second Circuit has recognized the
appropriateness of sealing confidential information. See, e.g., DiRussa v. Dean Witter Reynolds
Inc., 121 F.3d 818, 826 (2d Cir. 1997) (upholding trial court’s decision to “safeguard . . .
confidential material” by placing documents under seal).
Pursuant to Your Honor’s Individual Practices and this Court’s Electronic Case Filing
Rules & Instructions, we are contemporaneously filing a sealed version of Defendants’ letter-
opposition, with Defendants’ proposed redactions highlighted.

Respectfully submitted,
/s/ Robert D. Wick
Robert D. Wick
Counsel for the JPMorgan Defendants
writing on behalf of all Defendants
