INTRODUCTION 2 1.1 3 Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential, PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS 4 proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public 5 disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may 6 be warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to 7 enter the following Stipulated Protective Order1. The parties acknowledge that this 8 Order does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to 9 discovery and that the protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends 10 only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment 11 under the applicable legal principles. The parties further acknowledge, as set forth 12 in Section 12.3, below, that this Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to 13 file confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the 14 procedures that must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a 15 party seeks permission from the court to file material under seal. 16 1.2 17 This action is likely to involve trade secrets, customer and pricing lists, 18 valuable research, development, commercial, financial, technical and/or proprietary 19 and/or highly confidential government information, as well as sensitive personal 20 information regarding private individuals, for which special protection from public 21 disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecution of this action is 22 warranted. Such confidential and proprietary materials and information consist of, 23 among other things, confidential business or financial information, information 24 regarding confidential business practices, or other confidential research, 25 development, or commercial information (including information implicating 26 privacy rights of third parties), information otherwise generally unavailable to the GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT 27 28 MORGAN, LEWIS & BOCKIUS LLP 1 Magistrate Judge Michael R. Wilner’s Form Stipulated Protective Order was used as a template to draft this Stipulated Protective Order. ATTORNEYS AT LAW LOS ANGELES DB2/ 31856316.1 2 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 2:16-CV-08630-DMG(MRWX) 1 public, or which may be privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure under 2 state or 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 of justice, 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. 13 2. 14 15 16 17 18 DEFINITIONS 2.1 Action: Roderick Marshall v. The Boeing Company, et al., Case No. 2:16-CV-08630-DMG (MRWx). 2.2 Challenging Party: a Party or Non-Party that challenges the designation of information or items under this Order. 2.3 “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items: information (regardless of 19 how it is generated, stored or maintained) or tangible things that qualify for 20 protection under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c), and as specified above in 21 the Good Cause Statement. 22 23 24 2.4 Counsel: Outside Counsel of Record and House Counsel (as well as their support staff). 2.5 Designating Party: a Party or Non-Party that designates information or 25 items that it produces in disclosures or in responses to discovery as 26 “CONFIDENTIAL.” 27 28 2.6 Disclosure or Discovery Material: all items or information, regardless of the medium or manner in which it is generated, stored, or maintained (including, MORGAN, LEWIS & BOCKIUS LLP ATTORNEYS AT LAW LOS ANGELES DB2/ 31856316.1 3 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 2:16-CV-08630-DMG(MRWX) 1 among other things, testimony, transcripts, and tangible things), that are produced 2 or generated in disclosures or responses to discovery in this matter. 3 2.7 Expert: a person with specialized knowledge or experience in a matter 4 pertinent to the litigation who has been retained by a Party or its counsel to serve as 5 an expert witness or as a consultant in this Action. 6 2.8 House Counsel: attorneys who are employees of a party to this Action. 7 House Counsel does not include Outside Counsel of Record or any other outside 8 counsel. 9 10 11 2.9 Non-Party: any natural person, partnership, corporation, association, or other legal entity not named as a Party to this action. 2.10 Outside Counsel of Record: attorneys who are not employees of a 12 party to this Action but are retained to represent or advise a party to this Action and 13 have appeared in this Action on behalf of that party or are affiliated with a law firm 14 which has appeared on behalf of that party, and includes support staff. 15 2.11 Party: any party to this Action, including all of its officers, directors, 16 employees, consultants, retained experts, and Outside Counsel of Record (and their 17 support staffs). 18 19 2.12 Producing Party: a Party or Non-Party that produces Disclosure or Discovery Material in this Action. 20 2.13 Professional Vendors: persons or entities that provide litigation 21 support services (e.g., photocopying, videotaping, translating, preparing exhibits or 22 demonstrations, and organizing, storing, or retrieving data in any form or medium) 23 and their employees and subcontractors. 24 25 26 27 2.14 Protected Material: any Disclosure or Discovery Material that is designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” 2.15 Receiving Party: a Party that receives Disclosure or Discovery Material from a Producing Party. 28 MORGAN, LEWIS & BOCKIUS LLP ATTORNEYS AT LAW LOS ANGELES DB2/ 31856316.1 4 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 2:16-CV-08630-DMG(MRWX) 1 3. SCOPE 2 The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only 3 Protected Material (as defined above), but also: (1) any information copied or 4 extracted from Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or 5 compilations of Protected Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or 6 presentations by Parties or their Counsel that might reveal Protected Material. 7 Any use of Protected Material at trial will be governed by the orders of the 8 trial judge. This Order does not govern the use of Protected Material at trial. 9 4. 10 DURATION Even after final disposition of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations 11 imposed by this Order will remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees 12 otherwise in writing or a court order otherwise directs. Final disposition will be 13 deemed to be the later of: (1) dismissal of all claims and defenses in this Action, 14 with or without prejudice; and (2) final judgment herein after the completion and 15 exhaustion of all appeals, rehearings, remands, trials, or reviews of this Action, 16 including the time limits for filing any motions or applications for extension of time 17 pursuant to applicable law. 18 5. 19 DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL 5.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. 20 Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under 21 this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that 22 qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for 23 protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written 24 communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, 25 items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept 26 unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order. 27 28 Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper MORGAN, LEWIS & BOCKIUS LLP ATTORNEYS AT LAW LOS ANGELES DB2/ 31856316.1 5 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 2:16-CV-08630-DMG(MRWX) 1 purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to 2 impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the 3 Designating Party to sanctions. 4 If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it 5 designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must 6 promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation. 7 5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in 8 this Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise 9 stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection 10 under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or 11 produced. 12 Designation in conformity with this Order requires: 13 (a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic 14 documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial 15 proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend 16 “CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter “CONFIDENTIAL legend”), to each page that 17 contains protected material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page 18 qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected 19 portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins). 20 A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection 21 need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated 22 which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and 23 before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection will be 24 deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the 25 documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine 26 which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, 27 before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the 28 “CONFIDENTIAL legend” to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a MORGAN, LEWIS & BOCKIUS LLP ATTORNEYS AT LAW LOS ANGELES DB2/ 31856316.1 6 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 2:16-CV-08630-DMG(MRWX) 1 portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing 2 Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making 3 appropriate markings in the margins). (b) 4 for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party 5 identify the Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the 6 deposition all protected testimony. (c) 7 for information produced in some form other than documentary 8 and for any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place 9 on the exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the 10 legend “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information 11 warrants protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, will identify the 12 protected portion(s). 5.3 13 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent 14 failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive 15 the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such 16 material. Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make 17 reasonable efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the 18 provisions of this Order. 19 6. 20 CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS 6.1 Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a 21 designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s 22 Scheduling Order. 23 6.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party will initiate the dispute 24 resolution process (and, if necessary, file a discovery motion) under Local Rule 25 37.1 et seq. 26 6.3 The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding will be on 27 the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper 28 purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other MORGAN, LEWIS & BOCKIUS LLP ATTORNEYS AT LAW LOS ANGELES DB2/ 31856316.1 7 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 2:16-CV-08630-DMG(MRWX) 1 parties) may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating 2 Party has waived or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties will 3 continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to which it is 4 entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the Court rules on the 5 challenge. 6 7. 7 ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is 8 disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this 9 Action only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this Action. Such 10 Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the 11 conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a 12 Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL 13 DISPOSITION). 14 Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a 15 location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons 16 authorized under this Order. 17 7.2 Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless 18 otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a 19 Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated 20 “CONFIDENTIAL” only to: 21 (a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this Action, 22 as well as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably 23 necessary to disclose the information for this Action; 24 (b) the officers, directors, and employees (including House 25 Counsel) of the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this 26 Action; 27 28 MORGAN, LEWIS & BOCKIUS LLP ATTORNEYS AT LAW LOS ANGELES DB2/ 31856316.1 8 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 2:16-CV-08630-DMG(MRWX) 1 (c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to 2 whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the 3 “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 4 (d) the Court and its personnel; 5 (e) court reporters and their staff; 6 (f) professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and 7 Professional Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action 8 and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit 9 A); (g) 10 11 the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information; (h) 12 during their depositions, witnesses ,and attorneys for witnesses, 13 in the Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided: (1) the 14 deposing party requests that the witness sign the form attached as Exhibit A hereto; 15 and (2) they will not be permitted to keep any confidential information unless they 16 sign the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless 17 otherwise agreed by the Designating Party or ordered by the court. Pages of 18 transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected 19 Material may be separately bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed to 20 anyone except as permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order; and (i) 21 any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting 22 personnel, mutually agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement 23 discussions. 24 8. 25 IN OTHER LITIGATION 26 PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation 27 that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as 28 “CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must: MORGAN, LEWIS & BOCKIUS LLP ATTORNEYS AT LAW LOS ANGELES DB2/ 31856316.1 9 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 2:16-CV-08630-DMG(MRWX) 1 2 (a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification will include a copy of the subpoena or court order; (b) 3 promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or 4 order to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the 5 subpoena or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification will include 6 a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and (c) 7 8 cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected. If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with 9 10 the subpoena or court order will not produce any information designated in this 11 action as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the 12 subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s 13 permission. The Designating Party will bear the burden and expense of seeking 14 protection in that court of its confidential material and nothing in these provisions 15 should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action 16 to disobey a lawful directive from another court. 17 9. 18 PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE 19 (a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced 20 by a Non-Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such 21 information produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected 22 by the remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions 23 should be construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections. 24 (b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery 25 request, to produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the 26 Party is subject to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s 27 confidential information, then the Party will: 28 MORGAN, LEWIS & BOCKIUS LLP ATTORNEYS AT LAW LOS ANGELES DB2/ 31856316.1 10 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 2:16-CV-08630-DMG(MRWX) 1 (1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the 2 Non-Party that some or all of the information requested is subject to a 3 confidentiality agreement with a Non-Party; (2) 4 promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the 5 Stipulated Protective Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a 6 reasonably specific description of the information requested; and (3) 7 8 make the information requested available for inspection by the Non-Party, if requested. (c) 9 If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court 10 within 14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the 11 Receiving Party may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive 12 to the discovery request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the 13 Receiving Party will not produce any information in its possession or control that is 14 subject to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination 15 by the court. Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party will bear the burden and 16 17 expense of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material. 18 10. 19 UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed 20 Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this 21 Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in 22 writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best 23 efforts to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the 24 person or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of 25 this Order, and (d) request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment 26 and Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A. 27 28 MORGAN, LEWIS & BOCKIUS LLP ATTORNEYS AT LAW LOS ANGELES DB2/ 31856316.1 11 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 2:16-CV-08630-DMG(MRWX) 1 11. 2 PROTECTED MATERIAL 3 INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain 4 inadvertently-produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other 5 protection, the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal 6 Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify 7 whatever procedure may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for 8 production without prior privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 9 502(d) and (e), insofar as the parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure 10 of a communication or information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work 11 product protection, the parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated 12 protective order submitted to the court. 13 12. 14 15 16 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. 12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this 17 Protective Order no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to 18 disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in 19 this Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on 20 any ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective 21 Order. 22 12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any 23 Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material 24 may only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the 25 specific Protected Material at issue. If a Party’s request to file Protected Material 26 under seal is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information 27 in the public record unless otherwise instructed by the court. 28 MORGAN, LEWIS & BOCKIUS LLP ATTORNEYS AT LAW LOS ANGELES DB2/ 31856316.1 12 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 2:16-CV-08630-DMG(MRWX) 1 13. 2 FINAL DISPOSITION After the final disposition of this Action, as defined in paragraph 4, within 60 3 days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must 4 return all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As 5 used in this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, 6 compilations, summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the 7 Protected Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the 8 Receiving Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if 9 not the same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that 10 (1) identifies (by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was 11 returned or destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any 12 copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or 13 capturing any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel 14 are entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, trial, 15 deposition, and hearing transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition 16 and trial exhibits, expert reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert 17 work product, even if such materials contain Protected Material. Any such archival 18 copies that contain or constitute Protected Material remain subject to this Protective 19 Order as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION). 20 14. 21 contempt proceedings, financial or evidentiary sanctions, reference to disciplinary 22 authorities, or other appropriate action at the discretion of the Court.
