"In the letter, Redfin pushed back against Compass's request for drafts of Kelman's April 14 blog post, calling the drafts privileged, and claiming that the request is just a fishing expedition. Far from evidencing any collusion, it instead confirms Mr. Kelman's long-held, public position on Clear Cooperation (CCP), the letter states. Redfin also argues that while it has not enacted its listing standards policy, it has not changed its stance on CCP or altered the policy."
"Compass has also demanded access to an unreacted version of Zillow and Redfin's rental listing syndication deal. In its letter, Redfin claims that Compass already agreed to forgo seeing this document during its earlier meet-and-confers with Redfin. Additionally, Redfin claims that the document has no bearing on this lawsuit and that producing it would unnecessarily burden Redfin, who is not a party to the lawsuit."
Compass filed a motion seeking expedited discovery to obtain drafts of Glenn Kelman's April 14 announcement about listing access standards and an unredacted rental listing syndication agreement with Zillow. Redfin declined to produce draft communications, asserting privilege and calling the request a fishing expedition, while saying the drafts reflect Kelman's long-held public position on Clear Cooperation (CCP) and that Redfin never enacted the alleged exclusionary policy. Redfin also asserts Compass previously agreed to forgo the unredacted syndication agreement and contends producing it would be irrelevant and unduly burdensome. A preliminary injunction hearing is scheduled for Nov. 18, 2025.
