Okay, let's break down this request and then deliver the information you're looking for.
Understanding the Request
You are asking for very specific information from the court case Card Connect, LLC v. Shift4 Payments, LLC. This is a legal case, and accessing exhibits requires diving into the court record system. Here's what you specified:
- Exhibits Only: You only want documents presented as evidence (exhibits), not the entire case file (which would include motions, orders, etc.).
- Specific Content: You're interested in exhibits featuring:
- Text Messages: Conversations conducted via SMS.
- Pseudonymization: The process of replacing identifying information with pseudonyms (artificial identifiers) to protect privacy. This usually indicates there had been discussion or a protective order in place.
- PDF Format Preferred: The provided file must be in a PDF Files.
- OCR (Optical Character Recognition): The PDFs must be searchable. This means the text within the images (like a scan of a text message) has been converted to machine-readable text.
- No Redactions: You want the exhibits in their original form, with no information blacked out or removed. This is the most crucial and legally sensitive point. Court records are often redacted to protect sensitive information (like personal details, trade secrets, etc.). Getting unredacted exhibits is very rare and, in many cases, legally impossible without a specific court order.
Locating the Case and Accessing Records
The case, Card Connect, LLC v. Shift4 Payments, LLC, was filed in the US state of Delaware and the court case number is 1:19-cv-01418.
