'
between Plaintiff Zelouf West Ltd.("Plaintiff or "Zelou~') and Defendants
3
Shoreline Wear, Inc.("Shoreline") and Zulily, LLC ("Zulily")(Shoreline and Zulily
4
collectively,"Defendants"), and finding good cause thereon,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the terms of the Stipulated Protective
5
6
Order shall govern the handling and disclosure of documents, things, and
7
information produced in this Action as follows:
8
1.
9
A. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS
Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential,
10
proprietary or private information for which special protection from public
11
disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may
12
be warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to
13
enter the following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this
14
Order does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to
15
discovery and that the protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends
16
only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment
17
under the applicable legal principles.
18
19
B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT
2
0
This action is likely to involve trade secrets, customer and pricing lists and
21
other valuable research, development, commercial, financial, technical and/or
2
2
proprietary information for which special protection from public disclosure during
23
discovery and from use for any purpose other than prosecution of this action may be
2
4
warranted. Such confidential and proprietary materials and information consist of,
25
among other things, confidential business or financial information, information
2
6
regarding confidential business practices, or other confidential research,
27
development, or commercial information (including information implicating privacy
28
rights of third parties), information otherwise generally unavailable to the public, or

1
which may be privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure under state or
2
federal statutes, court rules, case decisions, or common law. Accordingly, to
3
expedite the flow of information, to facilitate the prompt resolution of disputes over
4
confidentiality of discovery materials, to adequately protect information the parties
5
are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure that the parties are permitted reasonable
6
necessary uses of such material in preparation for and in the conduct of trial, to
7
address their handling at the end of the litigation, and serve the ends ofjustice, a
8
protective order for such information is justified in this matter. It is the intent of the
9
parties that information will not be designated as confidential for tactical reasons
10
and that nothing be so designated without a good faith belief that it has been
11
maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and there is good cause why it
12
should not be part of the public record of this case. The parties understand and
13
acknowledge that this Protective Order does not govern the use of materials at trial.
14
Any motions for protective order or requests that documents be maintained under
15
seal must be made to the judicial officer handling the trial.
16
17
C. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF PROCEDURE FOR FILING UNDER SEAL
18
The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this
19
Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information
2
0
under seal; Local Civil Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed
21
and the standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court
2
2
to file material under seal.
23
There is a strong presumption that the public has a right of access to judicial
2
4
proceedings and records in civil cases. In connection with non-diapositive motions,
25
good cause must be shown to support a filing under seal. See Kamakana v. City and
2

reasons with proper evidentiary support and legal justification, must be made with
respect to Protected Material that a party seeks to file under seal. The parties' mere
designation of Disclosure or Discovery Material as CONFIDENTIAL does not—

material sought to be filed under seal qualifies as confidential, privileged, or

If documents can be redacted, then a redacted version for public viewing, omitting

shall be filed. Any application that seeks to file documents under seal in their

DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5
5.1
Exercise of Restraint and Care in Desi natin~Material for Protection.
6
Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under
7
this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that
8
qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for
9
protection only those parts of material, documents, items or oral or written
10
communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, items
11
or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably
12
within the ambit of this Order.
13
Mass, indiscriminate or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations
14
that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper
15
purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to impose
16
unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Designating
17
Party to sanctions.
18
If it comes to a Designating Party's attention that information or items that it
19
designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must
2
0
promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable.designation.
21
5.2
Manner and Timing of Desi ngations. Except as otherwise provided in
2
2
this Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise
23
stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection
2
4
under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or
25
produced.

Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

appropriate,(hereinafter "CONFIDENTIAL legend"), to each page that contains
4
protected material. If only a portion of the material on a page qualifies for
5
protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portions)
6
(
e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).
7
A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection
8
need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated
9
which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and
10
before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be
11
deemed "CONFIDENTIAL." After the inspecting Party has identified the
12
documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which
13
documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then,
14
before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the
15
CONFIDENTIAL legend" to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a
"
16
portion of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also
17
must clearly identify the protected portions)(e.g., by making appropriate markings

in the margins).
