INTRODUCTION
20
1.1
PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS
21
Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential,
22
proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public
23
disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may
24
be warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to
25
enter the following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this
26
Order does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
Case 2:21-cv-03755-MRW Document 39 Filed 08/09/21 Page 2 of 15 Page ID #:380
1
discovery and that the protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends
2
only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment
3
under the applicable legal principles. The parties further acknowledge, as set forth
4
in Section 12.3, below, that this Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to
5
file confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the
6
procedures that must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a party
7
seeks permission from the court to file material under seal.

1.2
GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT
9
This litigation potentially involves the Plaintiffs’ financial information that
10
implicates their constitutional right to privacy. Moreover, there is a substantial risk
11
that if specific information regarding such financial information is released, that it
12
could jeopardize Plaintiffs’ security. Specifically, Plaintiffs identify the agreement
13
filed as Dkt. No. 20-2 (“Agreement”) as a document that may contain private
14
financial information as well as other private information such as home address and
15
banking information. See Dkt. Nos. 15, 15-5, and 15-6. This litigation also involves
16
Defendant’s confidential business information, and potentially the confidential
17
business information of Non-Parties involved in transactions related to the
18
Agreement and/or this Action, and identifying information of Non-Party individuals
19
that could potentially jeopardize their security. Accordingly, to expedite the flow of
20
information in discovery, to facilitate the prompt resolution of disputes over
21
confidentiality of discovery materials, to adequately protect the confidential and/or
22
private information of such Parties and Non-Parties, to address the handling of such
23
information at the end of this litigation, and to serve the ends of justice, a protective
24
order for such information is justified in this matter. There is, thus, good cause
25
under Fed.R.Civ.Proc. 26(c) for the Court to issue this order, including to protect the
26
parties from annoyance, oppression, or undue burden or expense.

DURATION
Even after final disposition of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations
2
3
imposed by this Order will remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees
4
otherwise in writing or a court order otherwise directs. Final disposition will be
5
deemed to be the later of (1) dismissal of all claims and defenses in this Action, with

pursuant to applicable law.

DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
12
5.1
Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection.
13
Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection
14
under this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material
15
that qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must
16
designate for protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or
17
written communications that qualify so that other portions of the material,
18
documents, items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not
19
swept unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.
20
Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations
21
that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper
22
purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to impose
23
unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Designating
24
Party to sanctions.

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
Case 2:21-cv-03755-MRW Document 39 Filed 08/09/21 Page 6 of 15 Page ID #:384
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
5
this 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 documents,
11
but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that
12
the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter
13
“CONFIDENTIAL legend”), to each page that contains protected material. If only a
14
portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing
15
Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate
16
markings in the margins).
17
A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection
18
need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated
19
which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and
20
before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection will be
21
deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the
22
documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which
23
documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before
24
producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the
25
“CONFIDENTIAL legend” to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a
26
portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing

1
Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate
2
markings in the margins).
(b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party identify the
3
4
Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the deposition all
5
protected testimony, or within 30 days of the close of the deposition.
(c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for
6
7
any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the
8
exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the legend
9
“CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information warrants
10
protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, will identify the protected
11
portion(s).
5.3
12
Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent
13
failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive
14
the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material.
15
Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable
16
efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this
17
Order.
18
19
6.
CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1
20
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.
6.2
23
Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party will initiate the dispute
24
resolution process (and, if necessary, file a discovery motion) under Local Rule 37.1
25
et seq.

6.3
1
The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding will be on
2
the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper
3
purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other
4
parties) may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating
5
Party has waived or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties will
6
continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to which it is
7
entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the Court rules on the
8
challenge.

7.
ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1
Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is
12
disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this
13
Action only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this Action. Such
14
Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the
15
conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a
16
Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL
17
DISPOSITION).
18
Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a
19
location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons
20
authorized under this Order.
21
7.2
Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless
22
otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a
23
Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated
24
“CONFIDENTIAL” only to:

(g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a
custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information;

requests that the witness sign the form attached as Exhibit A hereto; and (2) they
20
will not be permitted to keep any confidential information unless they sign the
21
“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise
22
agreed by the Designating Party or ordered by the court. Pages of transcribed

PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED
If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation
7
that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as
8
“CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:
9
10
11
(a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification
will include a copy of the subpoena or court order;
(b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order
12
to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the
13
subpoena or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification will include
14
a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and
15
16
17
(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
18
the subpoena or court order will not produce any information designated in this
19
action as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the
20
subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s
21
permission. The Designating Party will bear the burden and expense of seeking
22
protection in that court of its confidential material and nothing in these provisions
23
should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action
24
to disobey a lawful directive from another court.

PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION
3
A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE
(a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a
4
Non-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
(b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to
9
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 will:
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 reasonably
17
specific description of the information requested; and
18
19
(3) make the information requested available for inspection by the
Non-Party, if requested.
20
(c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within
21
14 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 will
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.

UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed

Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this
7
Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in
8

9
to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or
10
persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Order,

INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE
When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain
17
inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection,
18
the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil
19
Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify whatever
20
procedure may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production
21
without prior privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and
22
(e), insofar as the parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a
23
communication or information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work
24
product protection, the parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated
25
protective order submitted to the court.

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
4

Protective Order no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to
6
disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this
7
Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any
8
ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order.
12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any
9
10
Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material may
11
only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the
12
specific Protected Material at issue. If a Party's request to file Protected Material
13
under seal is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information
14
in the public record unless otherwise instructed by the court.

FINAL DISPOSITION
After the final disposition of this Action, as defined in paragraph 4, within 60
18
days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must return
19
all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As used in
20
this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations,
21
summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected
22
Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving
23
Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same
24
person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that (1) identifies
25
(by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or
26
destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies,

Section 4 (DURATION). Further, notwithstanding this provision, if the Producing
9
Party and the Designating Party are not the same, the Producing Party is entitled to

11
it remains subject to this Protective Order as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION)
