PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS AND GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT
Discovery in this action is likely to involve 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
The grounds for this Protective Order are that discovery in this action
16
involves the disclosure of confidential, proprietary, and/or private information that
17
warrants special protection from public disclosure, and from use for any purpose
18
other than prosecuting and defending this action and any subsequent appeal of this
19
action. The confidential, proprietary, and/or private material that may be produced
20
in this action includes, but is not limited to, (1) confidential medical records and
21
information of non-parties; (2) other “Protected Health Information” (“PHI”) as
22
defined in 45 Code of Federal Regulations (“CFR”) Section 160.103 of the Health
23
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”); (3) “medical
24
information” as defined in California Civil Code Section 56.05(g); (4) private
25
information regarding Cedars-Sinai Medical Center’s (“Cedars-Sinai”) current and
26
former employees; (5) proprietary business information; and (6) other documents
27
and information that may be subject to confidentiality limitations on disclosure due
28
to federal laws, state laws, and privacy rights.

Cedars-Sinai is required by federal and state laws to protect the
1
2
confidentiality of certain documents and information, including private information
3
regarding its current and former employees, as well as PHI, including medical
4
records and other medical information relating to patients. Prejudice or harm to a
5
party or third party may result if no protective order is granted, as the privacy rights
6
of Cedars-Sinai’s past and present patients and employees could be violated if any
7
of the confidential information identified above is published or otherwise used or
8
disclosed for purposes outside those permitted in this Protective Order. Cedars-
9
Sinai may also be harmed and/or prejudiced if its proprietary or other confidential
10
information is made public.
11
Accordingly, to expedite the flow of information, to facilitate the prompt
12
resolution of disputes over confidentiality of discovery materials, to adequately
13
protect information the parties are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure that the
14
parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses of such material in preparation for
15
and in the conduct of trial, to address their handling at the end of the litigation, and
16
serve the ends of justice, a protective order for such information is justified in this
17
matter. It is the intent of the parties that information will not be designated as
18
confidential for tactical reasons and that nothing be so designated without a good
19
faith belief that it has been maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and
20
there is good cause why it should not be part of the public record of this case.

DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1
Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection.
3
Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under
4
this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that
5
qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for
6
protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written
7
communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents,
8
items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept
9
unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.
10
Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations
11
that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper
12
purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to impose
13
unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Designating
14
Party to sanctions.
15
If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it
16
designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must
17
promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation.
18
5.2
Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in
19
this Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise
20
stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection
21
under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or
22
produced.
23
Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
24
(a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic
25
documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial
26
proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend
27
“CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter “CONFIDENTIAL legend”), to each page that
28
contains protected material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page

1
qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected
2
portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).
3
A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection
4
need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated
5
which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and
6
before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be
7
deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the
8
documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine
9
which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then,
10
before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the
11
“CONFIDENTIAL legend” to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a
12
portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing
13
Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate
14
markings in the margins).
15
(b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party identify the
16
Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the deposition
17
all protected testimony.
18
(c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for
19
any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the
20
exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the legend
21
“CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information warrants
22
protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected
23
portion(s).
24
5.3
Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent
25
failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive
26
the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material.
27
Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable

CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1
5
Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a
6
designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s
7
Scheduling Order.
6.2
8
9
Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute
resolution process under Local Rule 37-1, et seq.
6.3
10
The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on
11
the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper
12
purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other
13
parties) may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating
14
Party has waived or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall
15
continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to which it is
16
entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the Court rules on the

challenge.

ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1
Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is
21
disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this
22
Action only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this Action. Such
23
Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the
24
conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a
25

IN OTHER LITIGATION
9
PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED
If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation
10
that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as
11
“CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:
12
13
(a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall
include a copy of the subpoena or court order;
14
(b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order to
15
issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena
16
or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of
17
this Stipulated Protective Order; and
18
19
20
(c) 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
21
the subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this
22
action as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the
23
subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s
24
permission. The Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking
25
protection in that court of its confidential material and nothing in these provisions
26
should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action
27
to disobey a lawful directive from another court.

A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE
(a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a Non-
4
Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information
5
produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the
6
remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be
7
construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.
8
9
(b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to
produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is
10
subject to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s
11
confidential information, then the Party shall:
12
(1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party
13
that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality
14
agreement with a Non-Party;
15
(2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated
16
Protective Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a
17
reasonably specific description of the information requested; and
18
(3) make the information requested available for inspection by the
19
Non-Party, if requested.
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
22
may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery
23
request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall
24
not produce any information in its possession or control that is subject to the
25
confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court.
26
Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and
27
expense of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material.

UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed
2
3
Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this
4
Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in
5
writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts
6
to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person
7
or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this

INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE
12
PROTECTED MATERIAL
When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain
13
14
inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other
15
protection, the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal
16
Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify
17
whatever procedure may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for
18
production without prior privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence
19
502(d) and (e), insofar as the parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure
20
of a communication or information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work
21
product protection, the parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated
22
protective order submitted to the court.

ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order.
4
12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any
5
Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material may
6
only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the
7
specific Protected Material at issue. If a Party's request to file Protected Material
8
under seal is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information
9
in the public record unless otherwise instructed by the court.
