Ok so it can be proprietary info, market sensitive info, info not subject to public disclosure...and does not include discovery material....prepared by fhfa that is available under applicable law.

The 11,000 docs arent available under applicable law correct? Available to who?

protected info can in fact include discovery material because it lists depos and "any document filed"

Protected info may be contained in any document produced, filed or served by a party to this litigation.

The timing of this notice of filing of application for access to protected info is in line with the April 17th deadline.

We see that Defendant does not oppose Karls access to the information. Is this evidence of DT admin being more cooperative?

Or is the "protected info" so heavily redacted that defendant knows it will be of little value to Karl?

If this is not related to the 11,000 docs then what is Karl looking for? Some trade secret? Fannie's secret mortgage purchase and guarantee recipe?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Karl Barth is an attorney, "certified public accountant, certified fraud examiner, certified in financial forensics," and a "consultant at a national financial consulting firm specializing in expert witness testimony on accounting and financial issues."

The Plaintiffs in Washington Federal v. United States have hired Barth to examine the current documents and the soon to be newly revealed documents that will be available on April 17, 2017.

Thus, the Washington Federal Plaintiffs filed an application for Barth for access to protected information.

The Defendants have no reason to oppose Barth or the application. Such applications are commonplace and ordinarily do not face opposition from an opposing party. The lack of opposition to the person and application does not indicate anything particular about the Defendants other than the lack of opposition.

Barth will examine all protected and not protected information in the litigation included the subset of document selected by the Defendants from the 11,000-12,000 documents.
