Parker from William H. Vidal dated June 12, 2017. filed by City of New York. Plaintiffs' request is denied.

In the meantime, analyses of the confidential affordable housing lottery data will remain subject to the Protective Order. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Katharine H. Parker on 7/5/17) (yv)
