Order re: Stipulated Protective Order [Dkt. 26]
The parties’ proposed Stipulation and Protective Order has been referred by the District
Judge to the Magistrate Judge for consideration. The parties are advised that the Court declines
to issue the proposed protective order to which they have stipulated for the following reasons:
1.
While the Court is willing to enter a protective order in accordance with the
parties’ stipulation in order to facilitate the conduct of discovery, the Court is unwilling to
include in the protective order any provisions relating to evidence presented at trial or other
court hearings or proceedings. Any use of Protected Material at trial or other court hearings
or proceedings shall be governed by the orders of the trial judge. The stipulation should,
thus, include language to make this explicit.
2.
The stipulation needs to be revised to make clear that the terms of the Protective
Order do not apply to the Court and court personnel, who are subject only to the Court’s internal
procedures regarding the handling of material filed or lodged, including material filed or lodged
under seal.
3.
Proposed ¶¶ 7 and 10 need to be revised to make clear that any motion challenging
a party’s designation of material as Confidential Information or seeking to modify or amend the
proposed Protective Order must be brought in strict compliance with Local Rules 37-1 and 37-2
(including the Joint Stipulation requirement).

4.
Proposed ¶¶ 5 and 8 need to be revised to make clear a Party that seeks to file
under seal any Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material
may only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the specific
Protected Material at issue. If a Party’s request to file Protected Material under seal is denied by
the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the public record unless otherwise
instructed by the court.
5.
The Protective Order shall unequivocally state that nothing in the protective order
shall be construed as authorizing a party to disobey a lawful subpoena or court order issued in
another action.
The parties are further directed to the Court’s sample stipulated protective order located
on the Court’s website for a sample of the format of an approved stipulated protective order.
The parties are strongly encouraged to use the language contained in the approved stipulated
protective order.
