MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE ADMINISTRATIVE RECORD ON CD-ROM AND TO WAIVE PAPER COPY Defendant, the United States, respectfully requests leave to file the administrative record utilizing a CD-ROM. This case is designated for electronic filing using the Court's CM/ECF system. The administrative record in this case will exceed the two megabyte size limitation applicable to electronic files, Rules of the United States Court of Federal Claims ("RCFC") General Order 42A ¶ 4, and the 50-page limitation requiring printed documents, RCFC General Order 42A ¶ 5. In addition, a sealed administrative record may not be filed electronically unless authorized by the Court. RCFC General Order 42A ¶ 7. Counsel for plaintiff has been contacted and will not oppose this motion. The administrative record consists of a large number of documents. These materials can most efficiently be delivered to the Court and to the parties on a CD-ROM. This method will provide efficient and easy access to the administrative record by the parties and the Court. Filing on CD-ROM also provides the most efficient and secure method for submission of the administrative record under seal. Because of the portability and ease of manipulation of the documents on a CD-ROM, we also respectfully request that the Court waive the requirement of RCFC General Order 42A ¶ 5
