STIPULATED PROTECTIVE
ORDER
Complaint filed: Mar. 22, 2023
v.
AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO.,
INC., et al.
Defendants.

1.
A. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS
22
23
Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential,
24
proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public
25
disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may
26
be warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to
27
enter the following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this
28
Order does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to
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 (Filing Protected Material), below, that this Stipulated Protective
5
Order does not entitle them to a file confidential information under seal; Civil Local
6
Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and the standards that will
7
be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to file material under seal.
8
9
B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT
10
This action is likely to involve trade secrets, customer and pricing lists, and
11
other valuable research, development, commercial, financial, technical and/or
12
proprietary information and personal identifying information for which special
13
protection from public disclosure and from use for any purpose other than
14
prosecution of this action is warranted. Such confidential and proprietary materials
15
and information consist of, among other things, confidential business or financial
16
information, information regarding confidential business practices, or other
17
confidential research, development, or commercial information (including
18
information implicating privacy rights of third parties), information otherwise
19
generally unavailable to the public, or which may be privileged or otherwise
20
protected from disclosure under state or federal statutes, court rules, case decisions,
21
or common law. Accordingly, to expedite the flow of information, to facilitate the
22
prompt resolution of disputes over confidentiality of discovery materials, to
23
adequately protect information the parties are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure
24
that the parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses of such material in
25
preparation for trial, to address their handling at the end of the litigation, and serve
26
the ends of justice, a protective order for such information is justified in this matter.
27
It is the intent of the parties that information will not be designated as confidential
28
for tactical reasons and that nothing be so designated without a good faith belief that
2
1
it has been maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and there is good cause
2
why it should not be part of the public record of this case.

5.
DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1
Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection.
22
Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under
23
this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that
24
qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for
25
protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written
26
communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents,
27
items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept
28
unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.
5
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
Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
15
(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
23
inspection need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has
24
indicated which documents it would like copied and produced.
25
inspection and before the designation, all of the material made available for
26
inspection shall be deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has
27
identified the documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must
28
determine which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this
6
During the
1
Order. Then, before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must
2
affix the “CONFIDENTIAL legend” to each page that contains Protected Material.
3
If only a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the
4
Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making
5
appropriate markings in the margins).
6
(b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party identify
7
, within 30 days after the final transcript is delivered, as Protected Material. All
8
deposition testimony taken in this case shall be treated as Protected Material until
9
the expiration of the thirtieth day after the transcript is delivered to any party or the
10
witness. Within this time period, a Designating Party may serve a Notice of
11
Designation to all parties of record as to specific portions of the testimony that are
12
designated Protected Material, and thereafter only those portions identified in the
13
Notice of Designation shall be protected by the terms of this Order.
14
(c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and
15
for any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on
16
the exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the
17
legend “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information
18
warrants protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the
19
protected portion(s).
5.3
20
Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent
21
failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive
22
the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material.
23
Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable
24
efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this
25
Order.
26
27
28
6.
CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1
Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a
7
1
designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s
2
Scheduling Order.
6.2
3
4
Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party Shall initiate the dispute
resolution process under Civil Local Rule 37-1 et seq.
6.3
5
The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be
6
on the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper
7
purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other
8
parties), may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating
9
Party has waived or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall
10
continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to which it
11
is entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the Court rules on the
12
challenge.
13
14
15
7.
ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1
Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that
16
is disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with
17
this Action only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this Action.
18
Such Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and
19
under the conditions described in this Order.
20
terminated, a Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of Section 13 below
21
(FINAL DISPOSITION).
When the Action has been
22
Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at
23
a location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the
24
persons authorized under this Order.
25
7.2

any
8
information
or

2
well as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably
3
necessary to disclose the information for this Action;
4
5
(b) the officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of
the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action;
6
(c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party, other than
7
a Conflicted Expert (see Section 2.4), to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary
8
for this Action and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be
9
Bound” (Exhibit A);
10
(d) the Court and its personnel;
11
(e) court reporters and their staff;
12
(f) professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and Professional
13
Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have
14
signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);
15
16
(g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a
custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information;
17
(h) during their depositions, witnesses, and attorneys for witnesses, in
18
the Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided: (1) the deposing
19
party requests that the witness sign the form attached as Exhibit A hereto; and (2)
20
they 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
23
deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected Material may

be separately bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except
25
as permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order; and
26
27
(i) any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting personnel,
mutually agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement discussions.

PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED
2
IN OTHER LITIGATION
3
If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation
4
that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as
5
“CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:
(a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification
6
7
shall include a copy of the subpoena or court order;
8
(b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order
9
to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the
10
subpoena or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include
11
a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and
(c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be
12
13
pursued by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected.
14
If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with
15
the subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this
16
action as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the
17
subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s
18
permission. The Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking
19
protection in that court of its confidential material, and nothing in these provisions
20
should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action
21
to disobey a lawful directive from another court.
22
23
9.
A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE
24
PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION
25
(a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a
26
Non-Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information
27
produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the
28
remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be
10
1
construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.
2
(b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to
3
produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is
4
subject to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s
5
confidential information, then the Party shall:
6
(1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party
7
that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement
8
with a Non-Party;
9
(2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated
10
Protective Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably
11
specific description of the information requested; and
(3) make the information requested available for inspection by the Non-
12
13
Party, if requested.
14
(c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this Court within
15
30 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party
16
may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery
17
request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall
18
not produce any information in its possession or control that is subject to the
19
confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the Court.
20
Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and
21
expense of seeking protection in this Court of its Protected Material.
22
23
10.
UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
24
If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed
25
Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this
26
Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in
27
writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts
28
to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person
11
1
or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this
2
Order, 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
11
procedure may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production
12
without prior privilege review.
13
The production of privileged or work-product protected documents or
14
electronically stored information, whether inadvertent or otherwise, is not a waiver
15
of the privilege or protection from discovery in this case or in any other federal or
16
state proceeding. This provision shall be interpreted to provide the maximum
17
protection allowed by Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d).
18
19
20
21
12.
MISCELLANEOUS
12.1 Right to Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any person
to seek its modification by the Court in the future.
22
12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this
23
Protective Order, no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to
24
disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this
25
Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any
26
ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order.
27
12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any
28
Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material
12
1
may 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 Section 4
8
(DURATION), within 60 days of a written request by the Designating Party, each
9
Receiving Party must return all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy
10
such material. As used in this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all
11
copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries, and any other format reproducing or
12
capturing any of the Protected Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned
13
or destroyed, the Receiving Party must submit a written certification to the
14
Producing Party (and, if not the same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by
15
the 60 day deadline that (1) identifies (by category, where appropriate) all the
16
Protected Material that was returned or destroyed; and (2) affirms that the Receiving
17
Party has not retained any copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries, or any other
18
format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this
19
provision, Counsel are entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion
20
papers, trial, deposition, and hearing transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence,
21
deposition and trial exhibits, expert reports, attorney work product, and consultant
22
and expert work product, even if such materials contain Protected Material. Any
23
such archival copies that contain or constitute Protected Material remain subject to
24
this Protective Order as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION).
25
14.
Any violation of this Order may be punished by any and all appropriate
26
measures including, without limitation, contempt proceedings and/or
27
monetary sanctions.
