Defendants represent that, to the best of their knowledge, “the February metadata overlay consisted of family relationship information that could not have been included when documents were originally produced.” See Dkt. No. 2470. 

With respect to “the schedule for production of overlays providing such family relationship information going forward,” see Dkt. No. 2470: 

1. Defendants agree to produce overlays providing such hyperlink-related metadata on a twice monthly basis going forward until such overlays are no longer required. 

2. Defendants agree to limit those overlays to documents receiving updated hyperlink metadata. 

3. Defendants agree to provide cover letters for those overlays stating that, to the best of their knowledge, the overlay consists of hyperlink-related metadata that could not have been included when documents were originally produced or at the time of the previous overlay production.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
