TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-05-00289-CV

Freightliner Corporation and Ford Motor Company, Appellants

v.

Motor Vehicle Board of the Texas Department of Transportation and Metro

Ford Truck Sales, Inc., Appellees

DIRECT APPEAL FROM THE MOTOR VEHICLE BOARD OF THE TEXAS

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

O R D E R

Ford Motor Company has filed a motion to continue an agreed protective order

entered by the Motor Vehicle Board’s hearings examiner on May 3, 1995. The order states that the

parties jointly request entry of the order “to preserve the confidentiality of certain commercially

sensitive, confidential or proprietary documents and testimony produced in the course of discovery

in this proceeding.” Ford certified that the remaining parties do not oppose this motion to have the

terms of that agreed protective order continue to apply during this appeal. No party has filed

opposition to this motion.

We grant the motion. The terms of the agreed protective order entered by the Board

on May 3, 1995, will remain in effect during this appeal. A copy of that order is attached as an

appendix to this order.

It is ordered November 18, 2005.

Bea Ann Smith, Justice
