May 29, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 118 ORDER denying #116 Letter Motion to Seal. Denied. HCC's blanket proposal to file all documents under seal is blatantly improper. HCC is to file it's letter publicly, with limited and narrowly tailored actions permitted to the publicly filed version. It is to do so by June 2, 2020. As to the exhibits, HCC is lso instructed to file proposed redactions or a letter highlighting more tailored reasons why each particular exhibit warrants under-seal filing also by June 2, 2020. HCC is admonished that, if the Court determines that HCC has over-redacted materials without careful attention to the need for redactions to be as limited as possible, the Court may (1) direct that the entirely of HCC's submission will be publicly filed and/or (2) summarily deny HCC's discovery motion.

April 24, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 115 OPINION & ORDER: For the foregoing reasons, and in the manner detailed above, the Court has resolved the above disputes regarding HCC's privilege claims. The Court orders HCC to produce, forthwith, full or redacted versions, as indicated, for documents that that the Court has held not protected in full by the attorney-client privilege. This opinion resolves the parties' most recent discovery dispute. The Court expects that this will be the last time counsel will call upon the Court to resolve discovery or other non-substantive disputes. The Court has been struck and disappointed by the uncommonly high level of discord and distrust among counsel in this case and by counsels' evident inability to work fruitfully together. Retained counsel in the vast majority of other cases before the Court, on its civil and criminal dockets, are capable of resolving matters relating to discovery and scheduling and the like without the need to seek judicial resolution on the scale and with the acrimony reflected here. The Court is constrained again to admonish counsel to strive to achieve the level of professionalism and collegiality which the Court and the bar in this District rightly expect.

March 25, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 94 ORDER denying #88 Letter Motion for Discovery; terminating #89 Letter Motion for Discovery; terminating #93 Letter Motion for Discovery: The Court has reviewed letters from Andrew D. Kupinse, Dkts. 88, 93, Roc Nation, Dkt. 89, and HCC, Dkts. 9091, regarding Mr. Kupinse's request for leave to file a motion to quash a third-party subpoena that HCC had issued to him. The Court denies Mr. Kupinse's request for leave and directs him to respond to the subpoena. Although some-perhaps even most-of Mr. Kupinse's communications with Roc Nation may be privileged, Mr. Kupinse is still required to search for responsive documents and to either produce such documents to HCC or indicate his claim of privilege in a detailed privileged log. The Court is mindful of the looming fact discovery deadline of March 31, 2020. Dkt. 68. Because of this dispute, the Court will extend that deadline for one week, for the sole purpose of allowing Mr. Kupinse time to respond to HCC's subpoena. Accordingly, the deadline for Mr. Kupinse to produce responsive documents and/or a corresponding privilege log is April 7, 2020. The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to terminate the motions pending at dockets 88, 89, and 93. (Signed by Judge Paul A. Engelmayer on 3/25/2020) (jwh)

February 12, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 84 ORDER terminating #70 Letter Motion to Compel; terminating #73 Letter Motion to Compel; terminating #75 Letter Motion to Compel. The Court has reviewed plaintiff Roc Nations letters, Dkts. 72, 75, 81, and defendant HCC's letters, Dkts. 70, 82, along with the parties attached exhibits, addressing recent discovery disputes. The Court resolves these disputes as follows: 1. HCC asks the Court to compel Roc Nation to respond to its demands for production. Roc Nation states that it has made three supplemental productions since the filing of HCC's letter, consisting of documents, a privilege log, revenue reports, Roc Nation's general ledger from 2016 through 2018, and a bank statement. As a result, HCC's request is moot. The parties are encouraged to meet and confer as to any disputes that may arise in the future. 2. HCC also asks the Court to impose sanctions on Roc Nation for its lack of responsiveness to discovery requests. The Court declines to do so. The Court is mindful that the parties have met and conferred and have negotiated as to the scope of HCC's requests for production. In addition, Roc Nation has also made several productions since the filing of HCC's initial letter. As a result, sanctions are not warranted at this time. The Court respectfully requests that the Clerk of Court terminate the motions pending at dockets 70, 73, and 75. The Court expects the parties henceforth to resolve their differences as to discovery collegially, without repeated requests to the Court to referee tiffs. Counsel in nearly all other civil litigations before the Court have proven capable of collegial resolutions of such disputes. (And as further set forth herein.) SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Paul A. Engelmayer on 2/12/2020) (jca)

November 13, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 64 ORDER: terminating #53 Letter Motion for Discovery; terminating #56 Letter Motion for Discovery. The Court rules for HCC as to both issues. The Court finds HCC's demands for production to seek, in general, relevant material. And the Court finds HCC's third-party subpoenas proper. Roe Nation therefore may not resist compliance with these subpoenas on these grounds. The Court's denial of Roe Nation's objections is, of course, without prejudice to Roe Nation's rights, at summary judgment, to argue that the materials produced in response to such subpoenas are irrelevant or of limited probative value. In so ruling, the Court has not passed judgment on the tailoring of particular demands for production. The Court's judgment is that, having disposed of Roe Nation's broad objections, it is proper for counsel now to meet and confer as to such particulars. The Court expects counsel, acting collegially and in good faith as professionals, to resolve these issues without the need to seek judicial intervention. The Court respectfully requests that the Clerk of the Court terminate the motions pending at Dockets 53 and 56. And as set forth herein. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Paul A. Engelmayer on 11/13/2019) (ama)
November 4, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 63 ORDER with respect to #53 Letter Motion for Discovery; with respect to #56 Letter Motion for Discovery: The Court is in receipt of the parties' letters regarding a recent discovery dispute.

Until a final resolution is reached, Roe Nation and those parties subject to the third-party subpoenas may refrain from producing the requested information and documents. (Signed by Judge Paul A.
