September 1, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 541 MEMORANDUM AND ORDER ON PLAINTIFFS' MOTION TO COMPEL DOCUMENTS WITHHELD AS PRIVILEGED in case 1:17-cv-06684-NG-LB; granting in part and denying in part #470 Motion to Compel in case 1:18-md-02819-NG-LB. Allergan has not met its burden to show that its communications with the Tribe before September 8, 2017 furthered a shared interest. See Mondis Tech., Ltd. v. LG Elecs., Inc., 2011 WL 1714304, at *34 (E.D. Tex. May 4, 2011; Synopsys, Inc. v. Ricoh Co., Ltd, 2006 WL 2479109, at *2 (N.D. Ca. Aug. 28, 2006). Accordingly, these communications are not subject to 5 the common interest rule, and plaintiffs' motion to compel communications between defendant and the Tribe between August 25 and September 8, 2017 is granted. Second, plaintiffs ask that I order Allergan to elect either to produce contemporaneous communications about its intent in entering into the Tribe deal or to forego reliance on evidence regarding this topic. In response, defendant entitled a subsection of its sur-reply at page 9, "No Preclusion Order is Necessary Because Allergan Will Not Rely On Testimony About Its Subjective Motivations For Entering Into The Tribe Deal." This issue will be treated as moot, and Allergan will be held to its election. Lastly, plaintiffs request production of a document concerning manufacturing standards for Restasis that defendant seeks to claw back. Upon review of the document itself as well as incamera review of the email to which it was attached, I am satisfied that the document is protected by the attorney-client privilege and that defendant properly clawed it back.

April 4, 2018 Opinion or Order Filing 49 ORDER: The court appreciates the proposed protocol for work performed and expenses incurred provided by the End-Payor Plaintiffs ("EPPs"). Counsel for the Direct-Purchaser Plaintiffs ("DPPs") report that they are still discussing appropriate guidelines and procedures for time and expense reporting and will submit a separate proposed order addressing this issue by April 5,2018. Noting that both classes have agreed to coordinate, I direct lead counsel for the EPPs and DPPs to confer and submit a joint proposed protocol by April 12, 2018. Any differences between the EPPs and DPPs should be noted in the joint proposal with an explanation for the difference. I note, for the parties' consideration, an issue with the EPPs' proposal. EPPs propose that "Counsel employing approved contract attorneys may bill those attorneys at a reasonable market rate, not to exceed $375 per hour." This methodology appears to treat contract attorneys as associates, and permits firms to be compensated for the use of contract attorneys at a rate that may bear little relation to their cost to the firm. The plaintiffs are directed to consider a more appropriate method of compensating themselves for the cost of employing contract attorneys. So Ordered. Nina Gershon, USDJ. April 4, 2018.
