A. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS
Discovery in this action may involve the production of confidential,
3
proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public
4
disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may
5
be warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to
6
enter the following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this
7
Order does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to
8
discovery and that the protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends
9
only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment
10
under the applicable legal principles. The parties further acknowledge, as set forth
11
in Section 12.3, below, that this Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to
12
file confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the
13
procedures that must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a
14
party seeks permission from the court to file material under seal.
15
B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT
16
This action may involve trade secrets, customer and pricing lists and other
17
valuable research, development, commercial, financial, technical and/or proprietary
18
information for which special protection from public disclosure and from use for
19
any purpose other than prosecution of this action may be warranted. Such
20
confidential and proprietary materials and information consist of, among other
21
things, confidential business or financial information, information regarding
22
confidential business practices, or other confidential research, development, or
23
commercial information (including information implicating privacy rights of third
24
parties), information otherwise generally unavailable to the public, or which may be
25
privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure under state or federal statutes,
26
court rules, case decisions, or common law. Accordingly, to expedite the flow of
27
information, to facilitate the prompt resolution of disputes over confidentiality of
28
discovery materials, to adequately protect information the parties are entitled to
-1-
[PROPOSED] STIPULATED PROTECTIVE
ORDER; CASE NO: 2:17-CV-05024-JFW-SK
1
keep confidential, to ensure that the parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses
2
of such material in preparation for and in the conduct of trial, to address their
3
handling at the end of the litigation, and serve the ends of justice, a protective order
4
for such information is justified in this matter. It is the intent of the parties that
5
information will not be designated as confidential for tactical reasons and that
6
nothing be so designated without a good faith belief that it has been maintained in a
7
confidential, non-public manner, and there is good cause why it should not be part
8
of the public record of this case.

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER; CASE
NO: 2:17-CV-05024-JFW-SK

13
including the time limits for filing any motions or applications for extension of time
14
pursuant to applicable law.
15
5.
16
DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection.
17
Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under
18
this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that
19
qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for
20
protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written
21
communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents,
22
items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept
23
unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.
24
Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations
25
that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper
26
purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to
27
impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the
28
Designating Party to sanctions.
-4-
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER; CASE
NO: 2:17-CV-05024-JFW-SK
1
If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it
2
designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must
3
promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation.
4
5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in this
5
Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise
6
stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection
7
under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or
8
produced.
9
10
Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
(a)
for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic
11
documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial
12
proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend
13
“CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter “CONFIDENTIAL legend”), to each page that
14
contains protected material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page
15
qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected
16
portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).
17
A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for
18
inspection need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party
19
has indicated which documents it would like copied and produced. During the
20
inspection and before the designation, all of the material made available for
21
inspection shall be deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has
22
identified the documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must
23
determine which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this
24
Order. Then, before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must
25
affix the “CONFIDENTIAL legend” to each page that contains Protected Material.
26
If only a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the
27
Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making
28
appropriate markings in the margins).
-5-
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER; CASE
NO: 2:17-CV-05024-JFW-SK
1
(b)
for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party
2
identify the Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the
3
deposition all protected testimony.
4
(c)
for information produced in some form other than documentary
5
and for any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent
6
place on the exterior of the container or containers in which the information is
7
stored the legend “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the
8
information warrants protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable,
9
shall identify the protected portion(s).
10
(d)
for Inspection of Things or Premises, the Producing Party shall
11
state in writing prior to the inspection that “CONFIDENTIAL” information or
12
material will be revealed.
13
5.3 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
24
25
6.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute
resolution process under Local Rule 37.1 et seq.
6.3 The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on
26
the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper
27
purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other
28
parties) may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating
-6-
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER; CASE
NO: 2:17-CV-05024-JFW-SK
1
Party has waived or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall
2
continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to which it is
3
entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the Court rules on the
4
challenge.
5
7.
ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
6
7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is
7
disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this
8
Action only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this Action. Such
9
Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the
10
conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a
11
Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL
12
DISPOSITION).
13
Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a
14
location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons
15
authorized under this Order.
16
7.2 Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless
17
otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a
18
Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated
19
“CONFIDENTIAL” only to:
20
(a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this Action, as
21
well as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is
22
reasonably necessary to disclose the information for this Action;
23
(b) the officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of
24
the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this
25
Action;
26
(c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom
27
disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the
28
“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);
-7-
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER; CASE
NO: 2:17-CV-05024-JFW-SK
1
(d) the court and its personnel;
2
(e) court reporters and their staff;
3
(f) professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and Professional
4
Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who
5
have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit
6
A);
7
(g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or
8
a custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the
9
information;
10
(h) during their depositions, witnesses, and attorneys for witnesses, in
11
the Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided: (1) the
12
deposing party requests that the witness sign the form attached as Exhibit 1
13
hereto; and (2) they will not be permitted to keep any confidential
14
information unless they sign the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be
15
Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise agreed by the Designating Party or
16
ordered by the court. Pages of transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to
17
depositions that reveal Protected Material may be separately bound by the
18
court reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted under
19
this Stipulated Protective Order; and
20
(i) any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting personnel,
21
mutually agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement
22
discussions.

24
IN OTHER LITIGATION
25
PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED
If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation
26
that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as
27
“CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:
28
-8-
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER; CASE
NO: 2:17-CV-05024-JFW-SK
1
2
(a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall
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
issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena
5
or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of
6
this Stipulated Protective Order; and
7
(c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued
8
by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected. If the
9
Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with the
10
subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this action
11
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 shall 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
19
A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE
(a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a Non-
20
Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information
21
produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the
22
remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be
23
construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.
24
(b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to
25
produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is
26
subject to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s
27
confidential information, then the Party shall:
28
-9-
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER; CASE
NO: 2:17-CV-05024-JFW-SK
1
(1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party
2
that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality
3
agreement with a Non-Party;
4
(2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated
5
Protective Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a
6
reasonably specific description of the information requested; and
7
(3) make the information requested available for inspection by the
8
Non-Party, if requested.
9
(c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within 14
10
days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party
11
may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery
12
request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall
13
not produce any information in its possession or control that is subject to the
14
confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court.
15
Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and
16
expense of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material.
17
10.
18
UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed
19
Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this
20
Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in
21
writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best
22
efforts to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the
23
person or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of
24
this Order, and (d) request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment
25
and Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

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
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.
16
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 and the Designating
28
Party shall be required to pay the Receiving Party’s reasonable costs and attorney’s
- 11 -
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER; CASE
NO: 2:17-CV-05024-JFW-SK
1
fees relating to such failed request to file under seal. Notwithstanding the
2
foregoing, nothing herein shall modify the Parties’ obligations to comply with all
3
applicable Rules of Civil Procedure and the local rules of the Central District of
4
California, with respect to discovery disputes and related requests for sanctions.
5
13.
6
FINAL DISPOSITION
After the final disposition of this Action, as defined in paragraph 4, within 60
7
days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must
8
return all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As
9
used in this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts,
10
compilations, summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the
11
Protected Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the
12
Receiving Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if
13
not the same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that
14
(1) identifies (by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was
15
returned or destroyed and (2)affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any
16
copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or
17
capturing any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel
18
are entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, trial,
19
deposition, and hearing transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition
20
and trial exhibits, expert reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert
21
work product, even if such materials contain Protected Material. Any such archival
22
copies that contain or constitute Protected Material remain subject to this Protective
23
Order as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION).
24
14.
25
measures including, without limitation, contempt proceedings and/or monetary
26
sanctions.
Any violation of this Order may be punished by any and all appropriate
