PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS

20
21
22
23

Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential,
proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public disclosure
and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be warranted.

24
25

Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to enter the following

26

Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does not confer

27

blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection

28
__________________________________________________________________________________________________
{00030064;1}

[PROPOSED] STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

1
2

it affords from public disclosure and use extends only to the limited information or
items that are entitled to confidential treatment under the applicable legal principles.

3
4

The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this Stipulated

5

Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information under seal; Civil

6

Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and the standards that

7
8
9

will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to file material under seal.
B.

GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT

10

Defendant is a debt collection agency and its collection policies and procedures
11
12

help Defendant compete in the collection industry. Plaintiff is seeking disclosure of

13

those confidential policies and procedures in this lawsuit. Defendant seeks to maintain

14
15

their confidentiality given their obvious relationship to Defendant’s ability to generate

16

revenue. Defendant has taken significant steps to protect its confidential and sensitive

17

business information. Public disclosure of these policies and procedures would enable

18
19
20
21

Defendant’s competitors to employ Defendant’s collection tactics and possibly
eliminate any practical competitive advantage.
Plaintiff may also seek Defendant’s confidential financial information with

22
23

respect to Defendant’s means to satisfy a judgment. Public disclosure of Defendant’s

24

finances would also enable Defendant’s competitors to better assess Defendant’s

25

vulnerability to competitive tactics.

26
27
28

Therefore, this action involves trade secrets, confidential policies and procedures,
and other valuable research, development, commercial, financial, technical and/or
__________________________________________________________________________________________________
{00030064;1}

[PROPOSED] STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

2

1
2

proprietary information for which special protection from public disclosure and from
use for any purpose other than prosecution of this action is warranted. Such

3
4

confidential and proprietary materials and information consist of, among other things,

5

confidential business or financial information, information regarding confidential

6

business practices, and may also consist of other confidential research, development, or

7
8

commercial information (including information implicating privacy rights of third

9

parties), information otherwise generally unavailable to the public, or which may be

10

privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure under state or federal statutes, court
11
12

rules, case decisions, or common law.

13

Accordingly, to expedite the flow of information, to facilitate the prompt

14
15

resolution of disputes over confidentiality of discovery materials, to adequately protect

16

information the parties are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure that the parties are

17

permitted reasonable necessary uses of such material in preparation for and in the

18
19

conduct of trial, to address their handling at the end of the litigation, and serve the ends

20

of justice, a protective order for such information is justified in this matter. It is the

21

intent of the parties that information will not be designated as confidential for tactical

22
23

reasons and that nothing be so designated without a good faith belief that it has been

24

maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and there is good cause why it should

25

not be part of the public record of this case.

DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL

7
8
9

5.1

Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. Each

Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under this Order

10

must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies under the
11
12

appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for protection only those

13

parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written communications that qualify so

14
15
16
17

that other portions of the material, documents, items, or communications for which
protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.
Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations that

18
19

are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper purpose

20

(e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to impose

21

unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Designating Party

22
23

to sanctions.

24

If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it

25

designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must

26
27

promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation.

28
__________________________________________________________________________________________________
{00030064;1}

[PROPOSED] STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

7

1
2

5.2

Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in this

Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise stipulated

3
4

or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection under this

5

Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or produced.

6

Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

7
8
9

(a)

for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic documents,

but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the

10

Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter
11
12

“CONFIDENTIAL legend”), to each page that contains protected material. If only a

13

portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing

14
15
16
17

Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate
markings in the margins).
A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection need

18
19

not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated which

20

documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before the

21

designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be deemed

22
23

“CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants

24

copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents, or

25

portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing the

26
27
28

specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL legend” to
each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion or portions of the material
__________________________________________________________________________________________________
{00030064;1}

[PROPOSED] STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

8

1
2

on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the
protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).

3
4
5
6

(b)

for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party identify the

Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the deposition all
protected testimony.

7
8
9

(c)

for information produced in some form other than documentary and for any

other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the exterior

10

of the container or containers in which the information is stored the legend
11
12

“CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information warrants

13

protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected

14
15
16
17

portion(s).
5.3

Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent failure

to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the

18
19

Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material. Upon

20

timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts to

21

assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this Order.

22
23
24
25

6.

CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS

6.1

Timing of Challenges.

Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a

designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s Scheduling

26
27

Order.

28
__________________________________________________________________________________________________
{00030064;1}

[PROPOSED] STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

9

2

6.2

Meet and Confer.

The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute

resolution process under Local Rule 37.1, et seq. Any discovery motion must strictly

3
4
5
6

comply with the procedures set forth in Local Rules 37-1, 37-2, and 37-3.6.3.
6.3

Burden. The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall

be on the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper

7
8

purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties)

9

may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has

10

waived or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall continue to afford
11
12

the material in question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the

13

Producing Party’s designation until the Court rules on the challenge.

14
15
16
17

7.

ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

7.1

Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is

disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this

18
19

Action only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this Action. Such

20

Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the

21

conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a Receiving

22
23

Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL DISPOSITION).

24

Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a

25

location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons

26

If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with the
subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this action as

3
4

“CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the subpoena or

5

order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s permission. The

6

Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in that court

7

A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE

PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION

14
15

(a)

The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a Non-

16

Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information produced

17

by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the remedies and relief

18
19
20
21

provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be construed as prohibiting
a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.
(b)

In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to

22
23

produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is

24

subject to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential

25

information, then the Party shall:

(1)

promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party that

some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement with a

3
4
5
6

Non-Party;
(2)

promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated Protective

Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably specific

description of the information requested; and

9

(3)

make the information requested available for inspection by the Non-

10

Party, if requested.
11
12

(c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within 14 days

13

of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may

14
15

produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery request.

16

If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall not produce

17

any information in its possession or control that is subject to the confidentiality

18
19

agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court. Absent a court order

20

to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection

9

OTHERWISE PROTECTED MATERIAL
When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain

10

inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection,
11
12

the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil

13

Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure

14
15

may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production without prior

16

privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and (e), insofar as the

17

parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a communication or

18
19

information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work product protection, the

20

parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order submitted to

21

the court.

MISCELLANEOUS

12.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any
person to seek its modification by the Court in the future.

26
27
28

12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this
Protective Order no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to

disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this
Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any

3
4
5
6

ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order.
12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any
Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material may

7
8

only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the specific

9

Protected Material at issue. If a Party's request to file Protected Material under seal is

10

denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the public
11
12

record unless otherwise instructed by the court.

13

13.

FINAL DISPOSITION

17

After the final disposition of this Action, as defined in paragraph 4, within 60

18
19

days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must return all

20

Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As used in this

21

subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations,

22
23

summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected

24

Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving Party

25

must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same person

26
27
28

or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that (1) identifies (by
category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or destroyed

5

archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, trial, deposition, and hearing transcripts,
