OPINION AND ORDER: The Court has jurisdiction, even post-judgment, to modify the Protective Order. There is good cause for the modification Vale requested, and Thiam has not shown any prejudice from the modification. In the exercise of the Court� 39;s discretion, Vale's requested modification is approved. Any objections to this Order must be filed by March 17, 2016. If no objections are filed by that time, Vale can provide the Thiam documents to the LCIA arbitrators. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Andrew J. Peck on 3/9/2016) (tn)

OPINION & ORDER: The Court has written this Opinion, rather than merely signing the parties' stipulated TAR protocol, because of the interest within the ediscovery community about TAR cases and protocols. The Court is approving the parties&# 039; TAR protocol, but notes that it was the result of the parties' agreement, not Court order. And as in Da Silva Moore, the Court's approval "does not mean... that the exact ESI protocol approved here will be appropriate in all [or any] future cases that utilize [TAR]. Nor does this Opinion endorse any vendor..., nor any particular [TAR] tool." Da Silva Moore v. Publicis Groupe & MSL Grp., 287 F.R.D. at 193. Indeed, the Court informed counsel that their stipulated prot ocol was somewhat vague and generic, which is why they felt the need to accompany it with a cover letter to "provide the Court with a brief summary of those [TAR] processes as provided by the parties' respective vendors." (Dkt. No. 181: 2/13/15 Letter to Court, at 1.) With that caveat, for whatever benefit it may be to subsequent cases, the parties' cover letter (Dkt. No. 181) and approved protocol (Dkt. No. 181-1) are attached to this Opinion as an Appendix. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Andrew J. Peck on 3/2/2015) (tn)
