1.
A. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS
2
Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential,
3
4
5
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.
6
7
Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to enter the
8
following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does
9
not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and that the
10
11
protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends only to the limited
12
information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment under the applicable
13
legal principles.1
14
15
B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT
16
This action is likely to involve trade secrets, customer and pricing lists and
17
other valuable research, development, commercial, financial, or proprietary
18
19
information for which special protection from public disclosure and from use for any
20
purpose other than prosecution of this action is warranted. Such confidential and
21
22
proprietary materials and information consist of, among other things, confidential
23
business or financial information, information regarding confidential business
24
practices, or other confidential or commercial information (including information
25
26
implicating privacy rights of third parties), information otherwise generally
27
This Stipulated Protective Order is substantially based on the model protective order
provided under Magistrate Judge Rozella A. Oliver’s Procedures.
1
28
2
PROTECTIVE ORDER
1
unavailable to the public, or which may be privileged or otherwise protected from
2
disclosure under state or federal statutes, court rules, case decisions, or common law.
3
Specifically, Plaintiff and Defendant are competitors of one another and access to
4
5
each parties pricing of good and client lists could create future unfair advantages that
6
could materially damage each other’s business .Accordingly, to expedite the flow of
7
information, to facilitate the prompt resolution of disputes over confidentiality of
8
9
discovery materials, to adequately protect information the parties are entitled to keep
10
confidential, to ensure that the parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses of such
11
material in preparation for and in the conduct of trial, to address their handling at the
12
13
end of the litigation, and serve the ends of justice, a protective order for such
14
information is justified in this matter. It is the intent of the parties that information
15
16
will not be designated as confidential for tactical reasons and that nothing be so
17
designated without a good faith belief that it has been maintained in a confidential,
18
non-public manner, and there is good cause why it should not be part of the public
19
20
record of this case.
21
C. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF PROCEDURE FOR FILING UNDER
22
SEAL
23
24
The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this
25
Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information under
26
seal; Local Civil Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and the
27
28
3
PROTECTIVE ORDER
1
standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to file
2
material under seal.
3
There is a strong presumption that the public has a right of access to judicial
4
5
proceedings and records in civil cases. In connection with non-dispositive motions,
6
good cause must be shown to support a filing under seal. See Kamakana v. City and
7
County of Honolulu, 447 F.3d 1172, 1176 (9th Cir. 2006), Phillips v. Gen. Motors
8
9
Corp., 307 F.3d 1206, 1210-11 (9th Cir. 2002), Makar-Welbon v. Sony Electrics, Inc.,
10
187 F.R.D. 576, 577 (E.D. Wis. 1999) (even stipulated protective orders require good
11
cause showing), and a specific showing of good cause or compelling reasons with
12
13
proper evidentiary support and legal justification, must be made with respect to
14
Protected Material that a party seeks to file under seal. The parties’ mere designation
15
16
of Disclosure or Discovery Material as CONFIDENTIAL does not— without the
17
submission of competent evidence by declaration, establishing that the material sought
18
to be filed under seal qualifies as confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable—
19
20
21
22
constitute good cause.
Further, if a party requests sealing related to a dispositive motion or trial, then
compelling reasons, not only good cause, for the sealing must be shown, and the relief
23
24
sought shall be narrowly tailored to serve the specific interest to be protected. See
25
Pintos v. Pacific Creditors Ass’n, 605 F.3d 665, 677-79 (9th Cir. 2010). For each item
26
or type of information, document, or thing sought to be filed or introduced under seal
27
28
in connection with a dispositive motion or trial, the party seeking protection must
4
PROTECTIVE ORDER
1
articulate compelling reasons, supported by specific facts and legal justification, for
2
the requested sealing order. Again, competent evidence supporting the application to
3
file documents under seal must be provided by declaration.
4
5
6
7
Any document that is not confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable in its
entirety will not be filed under seal if the confidential portions can be redacted. If
documents can be redacted, then a redacted version for public viewing, omitting only
8
9
10
11
the confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable portions of the document, shall
be filed. Any application that seeks to file documents under seal in their entirety
should include an explanation of why redaction is not feasible.

22
from Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or compilations of
23
24
25
26
Protected Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or presentations by Parties
or their Counsel that might reveal Protected Material.
Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by the orders of the trial
27
28
judge. This Order does not govern the use of Protected Material at trial.
7
PROTECTIVE ORDER
1
///
2
4. DURATION Once a case proceeds to trial, information that was designated as
3
CONFIDENTIAL or maintained pursuant to this protective order used or introduced
4
5
as an exhibit at trial becomes public and will be presumptively available to all
6
members of the public, including the press, unless compelling reasons supported by
7
specific factual findings to proceed otherwise are made to the trial judge in advance of
8
9
10
11
the trial. See Kamakana, 447 F.3d at 1180-81 (distinguishing “good cause” showing
for sealing documents produced in discovery from “compelling reasons” standard
when merits-related documents are part of court record). Accordingly, the terms of
12
13
this protective order do not extend beyond the commencement of the trial.
14
5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
15
16
17
18
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 must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that
19
20
qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for
21
protection only those parts of material, documents, items or oral or written
22
communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, items
23
24
25
26
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
27
28
that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper
8
PROTECTIVE ORDER
1
purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to impose
2
unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Designating Party
3
to sanctions.
4
5
If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it
6
designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must
7
promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation.
8
9
10
11
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 or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection
12
13
under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or
14
produced.
15
16
17
18
Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
(a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic documents,
but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial
19
20
proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend
21
“CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter “CONFIDENTIAL legend”), to each page
22
that contains protected material. If only a portion of the material on a page
23
24
25
26
qualifies for protection, the Producing 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
27
28
9
PROTECTIVE ORDER
1
need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated
2
which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before
3
the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be deemed
4
5
“CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants
6
copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents, or
7
portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing the
8
9
10
11
specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL legend”
to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion of the material on a
page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the
12
13
14
15
16
17
18
protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).
(b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party identifies the
Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the deposition all
protected testimony.
(c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for any
19
20
other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the
21
exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the legend
22
“CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information warrants
23
24
25
26
protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected
portion(s).
5.3 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent
27
28
failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the
10
PROTECTIVE ORDER
1
Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material.
2
Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable
3
efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this
4
5
Order.
6
6.
7
CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1 Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a
8
9
10
designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s
Scheduling Order.
11
6.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute
12
13
resolution process under Local Rule 37.1 et seq.
14
15
16
6.3 The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the
Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose
17
(e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may
18
expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived or
19
20
withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall continue to afford the
21
material in question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing
22
Party’s designation until the Court rules on the challenge.
23
24
25
26
///
7.
ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is
27
28
disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this
11
PROTECTIVE ORDER
1
Action only for prosecuting, defending or attempting to settle this Action. Such
2
Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the
3
conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a Receiving
4
5
6
7
Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL DISPOSITION).
Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a
location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons
8
9
10
11
authorized under this Order.
7.2 Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless
otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a
12
13
Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated “CONFIDENTIAL”
14
only to:
15
16
(a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this Action, as well as
17
employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably necessary to
18
disclose the information for this Action;
19
20
(b) the officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of the
21
Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action;
22
(c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom
23
24
25
26
disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the
“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);
(d) the court and its personnel;
27
28
(e) court reporters and their staff;
12
PROTECTIVE ORDER
(f) professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and Professional Vendors
1
2
3
to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the
“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);
4
(g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a
5
6
custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information;
7
(h) during their depositions, witnesses, and attorneys for witnesses, in the
8
9
Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided: (1) the deposing party
10
requests that the witness sign the form attached as Exhibit 1 hereto; and (2) they will
11
not be permitted to keep any confidential information unless they sign the
12
13
“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise agreed
14
by the Designating Party or ordered by the court. Pages of transcribed deposition
15
16
testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected Material may be separately
17
bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted
18
under this Stipulated Protective Order; and
19
(i) any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting personnel, mutually
20
21
agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement discussions.
22
8.
PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED
23
24
25
26
IN OTHER LITIGATION
If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation
that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as
27
28
“CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:
13
PROTECTIVE ORDER
(a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall
1
2
include a copy of the subpoena or court order;
3
(b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order to
4
5
issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena or
6
order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of this
7
Stipulated Protective Order; and
8
(c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued by
9
10
11
the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected. If the Designating
Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with the subpoena or court
12
13
order shall not produce any information designated in this action as
14
“CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the subpoena or
15
16
order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s permission. The
17
Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in that
18
court of its confidential material and nothing in these provisions should be construed
19
20
as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action to disobey a lawful
21
directive from another court.
22
9.
A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE
23
24
25
26
PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION
(a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a NonParty in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information
27
28
produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the
14
PROTECTIVE ORDER
1
remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be
2
construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.
3
(b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to produce
4
5
a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is subject to an
6
agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential
7
information, then the Party shall:
8
9
10
11
(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 Non-Party;
12
13
(2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated
14
Protective Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a
15
16
17
18
reasonably specific description of the information requested; and
(3) make the information requested available for inspection by the NonParty, if requested.
19
20
(c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within 14
21
days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may
22
produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery request.
23
24
If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall not produce
25
any information in its possession or control that is subject to the confidentiality
26
agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court. Absent a court
27
28
15
PROTECTIVE ORDER
1
order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking
2
protection in this court of its Protected Material.
3
10.
UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
4
If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed
5
6
7
Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this
Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in
8
9
writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts
10
to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or
11
persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Order,
12
13
and (d) request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and
14
Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
15
16
11.
INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE
17
PROTECTED MATERIAL
18
When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain
19
20
inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection,
21
the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil
22
Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure
23
24
may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production without prior
25
privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and (e), insofar as the
26
parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a communication or
27
28
information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work product protection, the
16
PROTECTIVE ORDER
1
parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order submitted to
2
the court.
3
12.
MISCELLANEOUS
4
12.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any
5
6
person to seek its modification by the Court in the future.
7
12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this
8
9
10
11
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
12
13
ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order.
14
15
16
12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any
Protected Material must comply with Local Civil Rule 79-5. Protected Material may
17
only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the
18
specific Protected Material at issue. If a Party’s request to file Protected Material
19
20
under seal is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in
21
the public record unless otherwise instructed by the court.
22
13.
FINAL DISPOSITION
23
24
After the final disposition of this Action, as defined in paragraph 4, within 60
25
days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must return
26
all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As used in this
27
28
subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations,
17
PROTECTIVE ORDER
1
summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected
2
Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving Party
3
must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same person
