STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
Case No. 5:17-cv-01340-JAK (SPx)
LA 52110356
1
In anticipation of discovery that may reach confidential and proprietary
2
business information, plaintiff Nathan Thew and defendant JPMorgan Chase Bank,
3
N.A., hereby stipulate as follows:
4
1.
PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS
Disclosure and discovery activity in this action are likely to involve production
5
6
of confidential, proprietary, or private information for which special protection from
7
public disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation
8
may be warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the court
9
to enter the following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this
10
Order does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery
11
and that the protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends only to the
12
limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment under the
13
applicable legal principles. The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section
14
12.3, below, that this Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file
15
confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures
16
that must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a party seeks
17
permission from the court to file material under seal.
18
2.
19
GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT
This action is likely to involve trade secrets and other valuable research,
20
development, commercial, financial, technical and/or proprietary information for
21
which special protection from public disclosure and from use for any purpose other
22
than prosecution of this action is warranted. Such confidential and proprietary
23
materials and information consist of, among other things, confidential business or
24
financial information, information regarding confidential business practices, or other
25
confidential research, development, or commercial information (including
26
information implicating privacy rights of third parties), information otherwise
27
generally unavailable to the public, or which may be privileged or otherwise
28
protected from disclosure under state or federal statutes, court rules, case decisions,
-1STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
Case No. 5:17-cv-01340-JAK (SPx)
LA 52110356
1
or common law. Accordingly, to expedite the flow of information, to facilitate the
2
prompt resolution of disputes over confidentiality of discovery materials, to
3
adequately protect information the parties are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure
4
that the parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses of such material in
5
preparation for and in the conduct of trial, to address their handling at the end of the
6
litigation, and serve the ends of justice, a protective order for such information is
7
justified in this matter. It is the intent of the parties that information will not be
8
designated as confidential for tactical reasons and that nothing be so designated
9
without a good faith belief that it has been maintained in a confidential, non-public
10
manner, and there is good cause why it should not be part of the public record of this
11
case.

SCOPE
27
The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only
28
Protected Material (as defined above), but also (1) any information copied or
-3STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
Case No. 5:17-cv-01340-JAK (SPx)
LA 52110356
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.
4
However, the protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order do not cover the
5
following information: (a) any information that is in the public domain at the time of
6
disclosure to a Receiving Party or becomes part of the public domain after its
7
disclosure to a Receiving Party as a result of publication not involving a violation of
8
this Order, including becoming part of the public record through trial or otherwise;
9
and (b) any information known to the Receiving Party prior to the disclosure or
10
obtained by the Receiving Party after the disclosure from a source who obtained the
11
information lawfully and under no obligation of confidentiality to the Designating
12
Party. Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by a separate
13
agreement or order.
14
5.
DURATION
Even after final disposition of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations
15
16
imposed by this Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees
17
otherwise in writing or a court order otherwise directs. Final disposition shall be
18
deemed to be the later of (1) dismissal of all claims and defenses in this action, with
19
or without prejudice; and (2) final judgment herein after the completion and
20
exhaustion of all appeals, rehearings, remands, trials, or reviews of this action,
21
including the time limits for filing any motions or applications for extension of time
22
pursuant to applicable law.
23
6.
24
DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
6.1
Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection.
25
Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under
26
this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that
27
qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for
28
protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written
-4STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
Case No. 5:17-cv-01340-JAK (SPx)
LA 52110356
1
communications that qualify – so that other portions of the material, documents,
2
items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept
3
unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order. Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized
4
designations are prohibited. Designations that are shown to be clearly unjustified or
5
that have been made for an improper purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber or
6
retard the case development process or to impose unnecessary expenses and burdens
7
on other parties) expose the Designating Party to sanctions.
8
If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it
9
designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must
10
11
promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation.
6.2
Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in
12
this Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise
13
stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection
14
under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or
15
produced.
16
Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
(a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic
17
18
documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial
19
proceedings), that the Producing Party affix the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” to each
20
page that contains protected material. If only a portion or portions of the material on
21
a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the
22
protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).
23
A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents or materials available for
24
inspection need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has
25
indicated which material it would like copied and produced. During the inspection
26
and before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be
27
deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the
28
documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which
-5STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
Case No. 5:17-cv-01340-JAK (SPx)
LA 52110356
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).
(b) for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or trial
7
8
proceedings, that the Designating Party identify on the record, before the close of the
9
deposition, hearing, or other proceeding, all protected testimony.
(c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and
10
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 or item is stored
13
the legend “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information or
14
item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify
15
the protected portion(s).
6.3
16
Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent
17
failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the
18
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
7.
23
CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
7.1
Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a
24
designation of confidentiality at any time. Unless a prompt challenge to a
25
Designating Party’s confidentiality designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable,
26
substantial unfairness, unnecessary economic burdens, or a significant disruption or
27
delay of the litigation, a Party does not waive its right to challenge a confidentiality
28
-6STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
Case No. 5:17-cv-01340-JAK (SPx)
LA 52110356
1
designation by electing not to mount a challenge promptly after the original
2
designation is disclosed.
3
7.2
Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute
4
resolution process by providing written notice of each designation it is challenging
5
and describing the basis for each challenge. To avoid ambiguity as to whether a
6
challenge has been made, the written notice must recite that the challenge to
7
confidentiality is being made in accordance with this specific paragraph of the
8
Protective Order. The parties shall attempt to resolve each challenge in good faith
9
and must begin the process by conferring directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other
10
forms of communication are not sufficient) within 14 days of the date of service of
11
notice. In conferring, the Challenging Party must explain the basis for its belief that
12
the confidentiality designation was not proper and must give the Designating Party
13
an opportunity to review the designated material, to reconsider the circumstances,
14
and, if no change in designation is offered, to explain the basis for the chosen
15
designation. A Challenging Party may proceed to the next stage of the challenge
16
process only if it has engaged in this meet and confer process first or establishes that
17
the Designating Party is unwilling to participate in the meet and confer process in a
18
timely manner.
19
7.3
Judicial Intervention. If the Parties cannot resolve a challenge without
20
court intervention, the Designating Party shall file and serve a motion to retain
21
confidentiality under Civil Local Rule 37 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule
22
79-5, if applicable) within 21 days of the initial notice of challenge or within 14 days
23
of the parties agreeing that the meet and confer process will not resolve their dispute,
24
whichever is earlier. Each such motion must be accompanied by a competent
25
declaration affirming that the movant has complied with the meet and confer
26
requirements imposed in the preceding paragraph. Failure by the Designating Party
27
to make such a motion including the required declaration within 21 days (or 14 days,
28
if applicable), unless otherwise agreed or ordered, shall automatically waive the
-7STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
Case No. 5:17-cv-01340-JAK (SPx)
LA 52110356
1
confidentiality designation for each challenged designation. In addition, the
2
Challenging Party may file a motion challenging a confidentiality designation at any
3
time if there is good cause for doing so, including a challenge to the designation of a
4
deposition transcript or any portions thereof. Any motion brought pursuant to this
5
provision must be accompanied by a competent declaration affirming that the movant
6
has complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed by the preceding
7
paragraph.
The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the
8
9
Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose
10
(e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may
11
expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived
12
the confidentiality designation by failing to file a motion to retain confidentiality as
13
described above, all parties shall continue to afford the material in question the level
14
of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the
15
court rules on the challenge.
16
8.
17
ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
8.1
Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is
18
disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this
19
case only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this litigation. Such
20
Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the
21
conditions described in this Order. When the litigation has been terminated, a
22
Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL
23
DISPOSITION).
24
Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a
25
location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons
26
authorized under this Order.
27
28
8.2
Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless
otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a
-8STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
Case No. 5:17-cv-01340-JAK (SPx)
LA 52110356
1
Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated
2
“CONFIDENTIAL” only to:
(a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this action, as
3
4
well as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably
5
necessary to disclose the information for this litigation and who have signed the
6
“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A;
7
(b) the officers, directors, and employees (including In-House Counsel)
8
of the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation
9
and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit
10
A);
(c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom
11
12
disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed the
13
“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);
14
(d) the court and its personnel;
15
(e) court reporters and their staff, professional jury or trial consultants,
16
mock jurors, and Professional Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary
17
for this litigation and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be
18
Bound” (Exhibit A);
19
(f) during their depositions, witnesses in the action to whom disclosure
20
is reasonably necessary and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement
21
to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise agreed by the Designating Party or
22
ordered by the court. Pages of transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to
23
depositions that reveal Protected Material must be separately bound by the court
24
reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted under this Stipulated
25
Protective Order.
(g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or
26
27
a custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information.

PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN
2
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
9
order 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 a
11
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.
If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with
14
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 to
21
disobey a lawful directive from another court.
22
10.
23
A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE
PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION
(a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a
24
25
Non-Party in this action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information
26
produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the
27
remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be
28
construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.
- 10 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
Case No. 5:17-cv-01340-JAK (SPx)
LA 52110356
(b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to
1
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-
6
Party 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 litigation, 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
11
12
the Non-Party.
(c) If the Non-Party fails to object or seek a protective order from this
13
14
court within 14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the
15
Receiving Party may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to
16
the discovery request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the
17
Receiving Party shall not produce any information in its possession or control that is
18
subject to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination
19
by the court. Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the
20
burden and expense of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material.
21
11.
22
UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed
23
Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this
24
Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in
25
writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts
26
to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or
27
persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Order,

12.
INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE
4
PROTECTED MATERIAL
5
When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain
6
inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection,
7
the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil
8
Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure
9
may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production without prior
10
privilege review.
11
13.
12
13
14
MISCELLANEOUS
13.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any
person to seek its modification by the court in the future.
13.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this
15
Protective Order no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to
16
disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this
17
Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any
18
ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order.
19
13.3 Filing Protected Material. Without written permission from the
20
Designating Party or a court order secured after appropriate notice to all interested
21
persons, a Party may not file in the public record in this action any Protected
22
Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any Protected Material must comply
23
with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material may only be filed under seal pursuant
24
to a court order authorizing the sealing of the specific Protected Material at issue.
25
Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5, a sealing order will issue only upon a request
26
establishing that the Protected Material at issue is privileged, protectable as a trade
27
secret, or otherwise entitled to protection under the law. If a Receiving Party’s
28
request to file Protected Material under seal pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5 is
- 12 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
Case No. 5:17-cv-01340-JAK (SPx)
LA 52110356
1
denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the public
2
record pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5 unless otherwise instructed by the court.
3
14.
FINAL DISPOSITION
4
Within 60 days after the final disposition of this action, as defined in
5
paragraph 4, each Receiving Party must return all Protected Material to the
6
Producing Party or destroy such material. As used in this subdivision, “all Protected
7
Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries, and any other
8
format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material. Whether the
9
Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving Party must submit a
10
written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same person or entity, to
11
the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that (1) identifies (by category, where
12
appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or destroyed and (2) affirms
13
that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies, abstracts, compilations,
14
summaries or any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected
15
