January 6, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 694 ORDER. The Court has been informed that this case has settled, and is in the process of scheduling a hearing on the settlement for later this morning.

Such a determination is not entirely possible in a class action, where notice to the class and a settlement approval hearing are required. But the Court will require the parties, at this morning's hearing, to describe in detail the settlement that has been reached so it can make at least a preliminary determination that the settlement is likely to be approved. Only then will the Court cancel the jury trial scheduled to begin tomorrow. Signed by Senior Judge David G Campbell on 1-6-20. This is a TEXT ENTRY ONLY.

December 6, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 638 ORDER. If the parties intend to present videotaped deposition testimony at trial, the Court must rule on objections before the videos are produced. If deposition testimony is to be read to the jury, the Court will rule during the reading. Thus, if videotaped depositions are to be presented, the parties must submit to the Court transcripts of the pages to be presented by video, with the text to be offered by one side highlighted in blue and the text to be offered by the other side highlighted in yellow, and any objections on which the parties wish to stand highlighted in red. The Court will then enter an order ruling on the objection so the parties can prepare the video presentations for trial. Such deposition transcripts should be delivered to chambers, at the latest, by noon on December 23, 2019. The Court urges the parties not to over-designate, both because juries have difficulty watching long video deposition excerpts and because the Court does not wish to spend time over the holidays reviewing transcripts of testimony that will not actually be presented. Signed by Senior Judge David G Campbell on 12-6-19. This is a TEXT ENTRY ONLY. There is no PDF document associated with this entry. (DGC)

(Attachments: #1 Exhibit A - Jaffe v. Household Verdict Form, #2 Exhibit B - Jaffe v. Household Order)(Brooks, Luke)
May 15, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 377 ORDER denying #351 Motion for Reconsideration. The Court cannot conclude that its previous decision on waiver of the work product protection with respect to interview notes (Doc. 307) was "manifest error." LRCiv 7.2 (g)(1). In the matrix in question, Plaintiffs specifically sought interview notes, regardless of who created them: "Documents reflecting those interviews -- no matter who it was that conducted the interviews and no matter who it was that memorialized them -- should be produced." Doc. 268-1 at 11. Defendants did not assert the work product protection in response. See Doc. 268-1. The Court cannot conclude that Defendants' boilerplate assertion of that protection months earlier in general objections to Plaintiffs' Rule 34 request (Doc. 351-1 at 5, 16) was sufficient to preserve the protection for the interview notes, particularly when the protection was never asserted with respect to those notes in a Rule 26(b)(5) privilege log. See Burlington N. & Santa Fe Ry. Co. v. U.S. Dist. Court for Dist. of Mont., 408 F.3d 1142, 1149 (9th Cir. 2005). The Court concludes that its reasoning in the prior order (Doc. 307) was not erroneous. Signed by Judge David G Campbell on 5-15-15. This is a TEXT ENTRY ONLY.

March 26, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 307 ORDER. Following today's discovery conference call, the Court reread the matrix submitted by the parties at Doc. 268-1 and the Court's order regarding the matrix (Doc. 278). The documents at issue in the matrix included "all documents relating to the internal audit" of the LPM issue (Doc. 268-1 at 2); "all documents" related to the audit "includ[ing] interviews of 'key players'" (id.); "documents relating to interviews" (Doc. 268-1 at 4); "all documents" relating to "interviews of key players" (Doc, 168-1 at 11); and "[d]ocuments reflecting those interviews -- no matter who it was that conducted the interviews and no matter who it was that memorialized them" (id.). In short, there is no question that the matrix sought all documents related to the internal LPM audit and all documents relating to interviews conducted as part of the audit. The Court ordered Defendants, by January 31, 2015, to "produce the documents at issue in the matrix," finding them "clearly relevant." Doc. 278. In response to this order, Defendants should have searched the files of the five members of the audit team whose files were not searched, and should also have searched for all documents relating to audit interviews, no matter who created them. Defendants now contend that lawyer notes of LPM audit interviews were taken for a different purpose than the internal audit. Even if this is true, the notes relate to the audit interviews and were covered by the matrix and the Court's order. Defendants also now contend that such notes are work product, but Defendants do not dispute that they have never claimed work product protection for these notes pursuant to Rule 26(b)(5) and that they did not assert work product or privilege as a basis for withholding documents in the matrix. To the contrary, when Plaintiffs specifically asserted in the matrix that Defendants "do not contend the requested documents are privileged or protected" (Doc. 168-1 at 4), Defendants did not disagree. Although waiver of the work product protection is not lightly to be found, the Court finds it here because (1) documents related to the internal LPM audit are plainly relevant in this case and have been from the beginning, interviews related to the LPM audit are plainly relevant, notes of those interviews are plainly relevant, and yet Defendants have never asserted the work product protection with respect to such notes; (2) the attorney notes of interviews were clearly at issue in the matrix, and yet Defendants did not assert the work product protection in response; (3) Defendants did not assert the work product protection in response to Plaintiffs' express statement that Defendants were not asserting that protection; and (4) Defendants have failed to search for clearly relevant documents related to the LPM audit, discovery has now closed, motions for summary judgment are imminent, and it is simply too late in this case to be asserting work product protection for the first time. As a result, Defendants shall, by April 10, 2015, search for and produce (a) all documents related to the internal LPM audit from the files of the five audit team members discussed during the conference call, and (b) all attorney notes of interviews conducted in connection with the internal LPM audit. By requiring the production of attorney notes of interviews, the Court is not requiring the disclosure of attorney "mental impressions, conclusions, opinions, or legal theories... concerning the litigation." Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b)(3)(B). That information, if any, may be redacted from attorney notes that are produced. Signed by Judge David G Campbell on 3-26-15. This is a TEXT ENTRY ONLY.

January 27, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 282 ORDER. The Court has reviewed the parties' briefs regarding waiver by disclosure of documents to outside auditors. Docs. 269, 270. To the extent the attorney-client privilege is at issue, the Ninth Circuit has held that disclosure of privileged documents to outside auditors waives the privilege. See United States v. Ruehle, 583 F.3d 600, 609 (9th Cir. 2009). As the D.C. Circuit has recognized, however, "[w]hile voluntary disclosure waives the attorney-client privilege, it does not necessarily waive work-product protection." United States v. Deloitte LLP, 610 F.3d 129, 139 (D.C. Cir. 2010). The D.C. Circuit further explained: "To the best of our knowledge, no circuit has addressed whether disclosing work product to an independent auditor constitutes waiver. Among the district courts that have addressed this issue, most have found no waiver." Id. (citing cases). The Court has reviewed the cases cited by Plaintiffs, In re Diasonics Sec. Litig., No. C-83-4584-RFP(FW), 1986 WL 53402 (N.D. Cal. June 15, 1986), and Medinol, Ltd. v. Boston Scientific Corp., 214 F.R.D. 113 (S.D.N.Y. 2002). The Court finds the reasoning of the D.C. Circuit in Deloitte to be more persuasive. See 610 F.3d at 139-143; see also S.E.C. v. Berry, No. C07-04431 RMW HRL, 2011 WL 825742, at *6-8 (N.D. Cal. Mar. 7, 2011). The Court accordingly holds that Defendants' work product protection was not waived by disclosures to First Solar's outside auditors. Plaintiffs allude to other deficiencies in Defendants' work product claim, but these were not raised during the January 6, 2015 conference call. The issue raised was whether disclosure to outside auditors waives the attorney-client privilege or work product protection. Doc. 260. Signed by Judge David G Campbell on 1-27-15.

January 27, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 281 ORDER. The Court has reviewed the parties' proposals for challenging withheld or redacted documents. Doc. 271. By the close of business on January 28, 2015, Plaintiffs shall identify 20 documents from Defendants' privilege logs to be reviewed by the Court in camera. To the extent known by Plaintiffs, none of the documents should exceed 20 pages in length. By the close of business on February 2, 2015, Defendants shall deliver to the Court (1) complete and unredacted copies of the documents identified by Plaintiffs; (2) copies of the latest produced, redacted versions of the documents; and (3) the corresponding privilege log entries for the documents. The Court will determine the next step in the process after it has reviewed the documents. Signed by Judge David G Campbell on 1-27-15. This is a TEXT ENTRY ONLY.

January 27, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 280 ORDER. The Court has considered the parties' briefing on the sufficiency of Defendants' privilege logs. Docs. 269, 270. Plaintiffs ask the Court to order Defendants to disclose whether each of the 5,000 documents in the logs was distributed to third parties and the identity of such parties, but cite no authority requiring such information. The Ninth Circuit has endorsed a log that discloses all persons or entities "shown on the document" to have received or sent the document. In re Grand Jury Investigation, 974 F.2d 1068, 1071 (9th Cir. 1992). The Court will not require more. If Defendants have not identified persons or entities shown on the documents to have received or sent the documents, they shall do so. In addition, to the extent available, Defendants should provide Plaintiffs with names of the attorneys and recipients shown on the documents, and dates of the documents, identified in Plaintiffs' Appendix A.

January 27, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 278 ORDER. The Court has reviewed the parties' matrix regarding the LPM review documents. Doc. 268. The Court concludes that Defendants should produce the documents at issue in the matrix, which the Court understands to be related to an internal audit of the LPM issue. The Court does not agree that such clearly relevant documents may be withheld simply because they were created after March 31, 2012. Nor does the Court conclude that Plaintiffs unduly delayed their request. Defendants do not dispute that Plaintiffs learned of the documents in December of 2014. Defendants argue that Plaintiffs, through diligence, could have learned these facts much earlier, but the Court cannot conclude that Plaintiffs' failure to find the information in hundreds of thousands of produced pages constitutes undue delay. The Court notes that both sides' argument in this matrix -- particularly Plaintiffs' -- adopted an unnecessary accusatory tone. The parties should drop the tone in future communications with the Court. The Court also notes that Plaintiffs' argument was about twice as long as it needed to be. Repetition does not help with persuasion. Defendants shall produce the documents to Plaintiffs by January 31, 2015. Signed by Judge David G Campbell on 1-27-15. This is a TEXT ENTRY ONLY.

January 8, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 264 ORDER. The Court provides the following rulings on issues raised in the parties' most recent matrix. (1) The defects addressed in the 30(b)(6) deposition will be limited to those specifically identified in the complaint (LPM and the hot climate issue). (2) For Topic 1(b), First Solar must present a witness prepared to testify regarding First Solar's knowledge regarding when individual defendants learned of defects. The testimony will concern First Solar's knowledge, not the individual defendants' knowledge. First Solar is not required in the 30(b)(6) deposition to provide testimony on behalf of the individual defendants. (3) Topic 3, even as narrowed by Plaintiffs, is clearly overbroad and would impose an unreasonable burden. If Plaintiffs wish to pursue this line of questioning, they shall identify 25 specific statements sufficiently in advance of the deposition to permit First Solar to prepare a witness on the identified statements. (4) First Solar will not be required to present a 30(b)(6) witness on Topic 11. The parties' positions on the causes of stock price fluctuations likely, and appropriately, will be addressed through expert testimony. (5) The Court concludes that responses to contention interrogatories are clearly a more efficient and cost-effective method of learning the factual basis for the affirmative defenses. Defendants shall respond to such a contention interrogatory on the same schedule as Plaintiffs' responses to contention interrogatories. (6) The Court sees merit, and greater efficiency, in setting an aggregate hours total for the 30(b)(6) depositions, and will set a limit of 20 hours. This aggregate total means, however, that Plaintiffs may decide where to allocate their time, even if the allocation results in one or more of the 30(b)(6) witnesses being deposed for more than 7 hours. (7) Defendants shall provide Plaintiffs with 30(b)(6) deposition dates by noon (Arizona time) next Tuesday. Signed by Judge David G Campbell on 1-8-55. This is a TEXT ENTRY ONLY.

December 9, 2014 Opinion or Order Filing 252 ORDER. During today's discovery conference call, the Court took under advisement Defendants' request that Plaintiffs be required to respond to contention interrogatories served by Defendants some months ago. The interrogatories focus on false statements at issue in this case, which Defendants are alleged to be legally responsible for which false statements, and other questions designed to determine what evidence underlies Plaintiffs' allegations of falsity, scienter, causation, etc. The Court has reviewed the amended complaint. It sets forth the alleged false statements with reasonable specificity, often quoting the alleged false statements and emphasizing particularly relevant portions. See Doc. 93, paras. 63-209. As Magistrate Judge Brazil noted, "[i]f a complaint presents a relatively detailed specification of the real world events giving rise to it, and proceeds on relatively well established legal theories, an attempt to justify early use of contention interrogatories on the ground that answers would clarify the issues would not be especially persuasive." In re Convergent Technologies Sec. Litig., 108 F.R.D. 328, 337 (N.D. Cal. 1985). The Court also notes that Plaintiffs served their responses to the contention interrogatories in March, and Defendants have not challenged the responses until today, on the eve of the most intensive discovery period in the case, when virtually all witnesses are to be deposed. If Defendants thought they needed more complete responses in order to prepare for the depositions or otherwise fashion their discovery requests, they could have and should have sought the Court's assistance much earlier. The Court will not require Plaintiffs to respond to the contention interrogatories on January 8, 2015 as requested. The responses will be due on March 6, 2015, after the close of discovery, but two weeks before the deadline for filing motions for summary judgment. Signed by Judge David G Campbell on 12-9-14.
