STEWART D. AARON, UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE:
WHEREAS, on March 16, 2022, Plaintiffs filed a motion for issuance of a Request for
International Judicial Assistance pursuant to the Hague Convention to take testimony overseas
of Alvin Ip (ECF Nos. 1012, 1015); and
WHEREAS, on March 21, 2022, Plaintiffs filed a motion for issuance of a Request for
International Judicial Assistance pursuant to the Hague Convention to take testimony overseas
of Serge Sarramegna (ECF Nos. 1019, 1023); and
WHEREAS, on March 25, 2022, Plaintiffs filed a motion for issuance of a Request for
International Judicial Assistance pursuant to the Hague Convention to take testimony overseas
of Stuart Scott (ECF No. 1028); and
WHEREAS, on March 30, 2022, Plaintiffs filed revised letters of request for Messrs. Ip,
Sarramegna and Scott (ECF Nos. 1034-1, 1034-2, 1034-3) and advised the Court that the
Defendants do not oppose the issuance of the revised letters of request (ECF No. 1034); and
WHEREAS, the previously filed forms of proposed orders granting the aforesaid motions
(see, e.g., ECF Nos. 1025-8) need to be revised and updated.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT HEREBY ORDERED, that, no later than April 7, 2022, Plaintiffs shall
file revised proposed orders for each of the three Hague Convention requests, attaching each
corresponding letter of request as an exhibit to each proposed order, and affixing a signature
block for Magistrate Judge Aaron, rather than Judge Schofield. If Plaintiffs intend for the Court to
issue both a redacted and an unredacted version of each Order, Plaintiffs shall file both versions
of such Order for each request. Plaintiffs hereby are granted permission to file the unredacted
versions under seal, consistent with the redactions made to the previously-filed documents,
given that the proposed redactions are narrowly tailored to prevent unauthorized dissemination
of sensitive business information. See Lugosch v. Pyramid Co. of Onondaga, 435 F.3d 110, 119-20
(2d Cir. 2006).
The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to terminate the gavels at ECF Nos. 1012, 1015,
1019, 1023 and 1028.
SO ORDERED.
Dated: New York, New York
March 31, 2022
List A.
