A. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS

20

Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential,

21

proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public

22

disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may

23

be warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to

24

enter the following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this

25

Order does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to

26

discovery and that the protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends

27
28

1
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment

2

under the applicable legal principles.

3
4

B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT

5

This action is likely to involve trade secrets, customer and pricing lists and

6

other valuable research, development, commercial, financial, technical and/or

7

proprietary information for which special protection from public disclosure and

8

from use for any purpose other than prosecution of this action is warranted. Such

9

confidential and proprietary materials and information consist of, among other

10

things, confidential business or financial information, information regarding

11

confidential business practices, or other confidential research, development, or

12

commercial information (including information implicating privacy rights of third

13

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

14

privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure under state or federal statutes,

15

court rules, case decisions, or common law. Accordingly, to expedite the flow of

16

information, to facilitate the prompt resolution of disputes over confidentiality of

17

discovery materials, to adequately protect information the parties are entitled to keep

18

confidential, to ensure that the parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses of

19

such material in preparation for and in the conduct of trial, to address their handling

20

at the end of the litigation, and serve the ends of justice, a protective order for such

21

information is justified in this matter. It is the intent of the parties that information

22

will not be designated as confidential for tactical reasons and that nothing be so

23

designated without a good faith belief that it has been maintained in a confidential,

24

non-public manner, and there is good cause why it should not be part of the public

25

record of this case.

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

C. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF PROCEDURE FOR FILING UNDER SEAL

2

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

3

Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information

4

under seal; Local Civil Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed

5

and the standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court

6

to file material under seal.

7

There is a strong presumption that the public has a right of access to judicial

8

proceedings and records in civil cases. In connection with non-dispositive motions,

9

good cause must be shown to support a filing under seal. See Kamakana v. City and

10

County of Honolulu, 447 F.3d 1172, 1176 (9th Cir. 2006), Phillips v. Gen. Motors

11

Corp., 307 F.3d 1206, 1210-11 (9th Cir. 2002), Makar-Welbon v. Sony Electrics,

12

Inc., 187 F.R.D. 576, 577 (E.D. Wis. 1999) (even stipulated protective orders

13

require good cause showing), and a specific showing of good cause or compelling

14

reasons with proper evidentiary support and legal justification, must be made with

15

respect to Protected Material that a party seeks to file under seal. The parties’ mere

16

designation of Disclosure or Discovery Material as CONFIDENTIAL does not—

17

without the submission of competent evidence by declaration, establishing that the

18

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

19

otherwise protectable—constitute good cause.

20

Further, if a party requests sealing related to a dispositive motion or trial, then

21

compelling reasons, not only good cause, for the sealing must be shown, and the

22

relief sought shall be narrowly tailored to serve the specific interest to be protected.

23

See Pintos v. Pacific Creditors Ass’n, 605 F.3d 665, 677-79 (9th Cir. 2010). For

24

each item or type of information, document, or thing sought to be filed or introduced

25

under seal in connection with a dispositive motion or trial, the party seeking

26

protection must articulate compelling reasons, supported by specific facts and legal

27

justification, for the requested sealing order. Again, competent evidence supporting

28

3
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

the application to file documents under seal must be provided by declaration.
Any document that is not confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable in

2
3

its entirety will not be filed under seal if the confidential portions can be redacted.

4

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

5

only the confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable portions of the document,

6

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

7

entirety should include an explanation of why redaction is not feasible.

The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only

27

Protected Material (as defined above), but also (1) any information copied or

28

5
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

extracted from Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or

2

compilations of Protected Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or

3

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

4
5

6
7

4.

DURATION

8

Once a case proceeds to trial, information that was designated as

9

CONFIDENTIAL or maintained pursuant to this protective order used or introduced

10

as an exhibit at trial becomes public and will be presumptively available to all

11

members of the public, including the press, unless compelling reasons supported by

12

specific factual findings to proceed otherwise are made to the trial judge in advance

13

of the trial. See Kamakana, 447 F.3d at 1180-81 (distinguishing “good cause”

14

showing for sealing documents produced in discovery from “compelling reasons”

15

standard when merits-related documents are part of court record). Accordingly, the

16

terms of this protective order do not extend beyond the commencement of the trial.

17
18
19

5.

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

6
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations

2

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

3

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

4

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

5

Party to sanctions.

6

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

7

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

8

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

9

5.2

Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in

10

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

11

stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection

12

under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or

13

produced.

14
15

Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
(a)

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

16

documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial

17

proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend

18

“CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter “CONFIDENTIAL legend”), to each page that

19

contains protected material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page

20

qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected

21

portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).

22

A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection

23

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

24

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

25

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

26

deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the

27

documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which

28

7
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before

2

producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the

3

“CONFIDENTIAL legend” to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a

4

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

5

Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate

6

markings in the margins).

7

(b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party identify

8

the Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the

9

deposition all protected testimony.

10

(c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and

11

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

12

the exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the

13

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

14

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

15

protected portion(s).
5.3

16

Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent

17

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

18

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

19

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

20

efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this

21

Order.

22
23
24

6.

CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1

Timing of Challenges.

Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a

25

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

26

Scheduling Order.

27
28

6.2

Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute
8
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

resolution process under Local Rule 37.1 et seq.
6.3

2

The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on

3

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

4

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

5

parties) may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating

6

Party has waived or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall

7

continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to which it is

8

entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the Court rules on the

9

challenge.

10
11
12

7.

ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1

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

13

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

14

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

15

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

16

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

17

Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL

18

DISPOSITION).

19

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

20

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

21

authorized under this Order.

22

7.2

Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless

23

otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a

24

Receiving

25

“CONFIDENTIAL” only to:

Party

disclose

any

information

or

item

designated

8

(e) court reporters and their staff;

(g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a

12
13

custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information;

14

(h) during their depositions, witnesses ,and attorneys for witnesses, in the

15

Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided: (1) the deposing party

16

requests that the witness sign the form attached as Exhibit 1 hereto; and (2) they will

17

not be permitted to keep any confidential information unless they sign the

18

“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise

19

agreed by the Designating Party or ordered by the court. Pages of transcribed

20

deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected Material may

21

be separately bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except

22

as permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order; and
(i) any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting personnel,

23
24

mutually agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement discussions.

25
26
27
28

8.

PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED
IN OTHER LITIGATION
10
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation

2

that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as

3

“CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:
(a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification

4
5

shall include a copy of the subpoena or court order;

6

(b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order

7

to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the

8

subpoena or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include

9

a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and
(c)

10
11

cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be

pursued by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected.

12

If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with

13

the subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this

14

action as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the

15

subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s

16

permission. The Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking

17

protection in that court of its confidential material and nothing in these provisions

18

should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action

19

to disobey a lawful directive from another court.

20
21
22

9.

A

NON-PARTY’S

PROTECTED

MATERIAL

SOUGHT

TO

BE

PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION

23

(a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a

24

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

25

produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the

26

remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be

27

construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.

28

11
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

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

2

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

3

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

4

confidential information, then the Party shall:

5

(1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party

6

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

7

agreement with a Non-Party;

8

(2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated

9

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

10

specific description of the information requested; and
(3) make the information requested available for inspection by the

11
12

Non-Party, if requested.

13

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

14

14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party

15

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

16

request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall

17

not produce any information in its possession or control that is subject to the

18

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

19

Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and

20

expense of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material.

21
22

10.

UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

23

If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed

24

Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this

25

Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in

26

writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts

27

to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or

28

12
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Order,

2

and (d) request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and

3

Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

4
5

11.

INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE

6

PROTECTED MATERIAL

7

When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain

8

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

9

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

10

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

11

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

12

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

13

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

14

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

15

parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order submitted

16

to the court.

17
18
19
20

12.

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.

21

12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this

22

Protective Order, no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to

23

disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this

24

Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any

25

ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order.

26

12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any

27

Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material may

28

13
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

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

2

specific Protected Material at issue. If a Party's request to file Protected Material

3

under seal is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information

4

in the public record unless otherwise instructed by the court.

5
6

13.

FINAL DISPOSITION

7

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

8

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

9

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

10

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

11

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

12

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

13

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

14

person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that (1) identifies

15

(by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or

16

destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies,

17

abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or capturing any

18

of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel are entitled to

19

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

20

transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial exhibits, expert

21

reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert work product, even if such

22

materials contain Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or

23

constitute Protected Material remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in

24

Section 4 (DURATION).

25
