Summary

This legal document, part of a court filing from September 16, 2020, argues that legal precedents cited by an individual named Maxwell are inapplicable to the current case. The author contends that the cited cases (Pichler v. UNITE, Minpeco S.A. v. Conticommodity Servs., Inc., and Brown v. Maxwell) are distinct because they all involve appeals by non-party intervenors seeking to modify protective orders, unlike the situation in the author's case. The document details these examples to demonstrate why appellate jurisdiction was appropriate in those specific instances but not in the present one.

the appellate courts do not repeatedly intervene to second-guess prejudgment
rulings.” Mohawk, 558 U.S. at 106 (alterations in original) (internal quotation

472 U.S. 424, 436 (1985)).
23. The cases cited in Maxwell’s notice of appeal do not alter this
analysis. All three are inapposite because they involved appeals by intervenors —
not parties — seeking to modify protective orders in civil cases. See Pichler v.
UNITE, 585 F.3d 741, 745-746 (3d Cir. 2009) (third party intervenor foundation
appealing order denying motion to modify protective order in civil litigation to
allow third party access to discovery materials); Minpeco S.A. v. Conticommodity
Servs., Inc., 832 F.2d 739, 741 (2d Cir. 1987) (Commodity Futures Trading
Commission (“CFTC”) acting as third party intervenor appealing order denying

discovery exchanged by parties to civil case permissible because “[t]he entire
controversy between the CFTC and the defendants in this case was disposed of by
the district court’s denial of the government’s motion to modify the protective
