DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
11
707 WILSHIRE BOULEVARD, SUITE 4000
ANDERSON, MCPHARLIN & CONNERS LLP
10 5.
5.1
Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for
12 Protection. Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for
13 protection under this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific
14 material that it believes in good faith will, if disclosed to the public, have the effect
15 of causing harm to its competitive position. The Designating Party must designate
16 for protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written
17 communications that qualify – so that other portions of the material, documents,
18 items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept
19 unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.
20
If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it
21 designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must
22 promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation.
23
5.2
Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided
24 in this Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of Section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise
25 stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection
26 under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or
27 produced.
28 / / /
1496784.1 05608-025

[PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
2
(a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic documents,
3 but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that
4 the Producing Party affix the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” to each page that contains
5 protected material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies
6 for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s)
7 (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins). A Party or Non-Party that
8 makes original documents or materials available for inspection need not designate
9 them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated which material it
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA 90017-3623
LAWYERS
11 all of the material made available for inspection shall be deemed
707 WILSHIRE BOULEVARD, SUITE 4000
ANDERSON, MCPHARLIN & CONNERS LLP
10 would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before the designation,
12 “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it
13 wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents,
14 or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing
15 the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL”
16 legend to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion or portions of
17 the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly
18 identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the
19 margins).
20
(b) for testimony given in deposition and other discovery-related proceedings
21 that the Designating Party identify on the record, before the close of the deposition,
22 hearing, or other proceeding, all protected testimony.
23
(c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for
24 any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the
25 exterior of the container or containers in which the information or item is stored the
26 legend “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information or item
27 warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the
28 protected portion(s).

5.3
Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent
2 failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive
3 the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material.
4 Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable
5 efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this
6 Order.
7 6.
CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
8
6.1
Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a
9 designation of confidentiality at any time. Unless a prompt challenge to a
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA 90017-3623
LAWYERS
11 substantial unfairness, unnecessary economic burdens, or a significant disruption or
707 WILSHIRE BOULEVARD, SUITE 4000
ANDERSON, MCPHARLIN & CONNERS LLP
10 Designating Party’s confidentiality designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable,
12 delay of the litigation, a Party does not waive its right to challenge a confidentiality
13 designation by electing not to mount a challenge promptly after the original
14 designation is disclosed.
15
6.2
Dispute Resolution under Local Rules 37-1, 37-2, 37-3, and 37-4.
16 The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute resolution process by the procedures
17 set forth in Local Rule 37-1 and providing written notice of each designation it is
18 challenging and describing the basis for each challenge. Thereafter, the Parties shall
19 engage in a good-faith attempt to resolve any differences. To avoid ambiguity as to
20 whether a challenge has been made, the written notice must recite that the challenge
21 to confidentiality is being made in accordance with this specific paragraph of the
22 Protective Order. In conferring, the Challenging Party must explain the basis for its
23 belief that the confidentiality designation was not proper and must give the
24 Designating Party an opportunity to review the designated material, to reconsider
25 the circumstances, and, if no change in designation is offered, to explain the basis
26 for the chosen designation. A Challenging Party may proceed to the next stage of
27 the challenge process, pursuant to Local Rules 37-2, 37-3, and 37-4, only if it has
28 engaged in this meet and confer process first or establishes that the Designating
1496784.1 05608-025
6
[PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
1 Party is unwilling to participate in the meet and confer process in a timely manner.
2 Under Local Rules 37-2, 37-3, and 37-4, the moving party is the Challenging Party
3 and the opposing party is the Designating Party. The burden of persuasion in any
4 such challenge proceeding shall be on the Designating Party. All parties shall
5 continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to which it is
6 entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the court rules on the
7 challenge.

7.1
Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that

ANDERSON, MCPHARLIN & CONNERS LLP
10 is disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this
12 Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the
13 conditions described in this Order. When the litigation has been terminated, a
14 Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of Section 13 below (FINAL
15 DISPOSITION).
16
Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a
17 location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons
18 authorized under this Order.
19
7.2
Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless
20 otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a
21 Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated
22 “CONFIDENTIAL” only to:

PRODUCED IN OTHER LITIGATION
19
If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation
20 that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this action as
21 “CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:
22
(a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall
23 include a copy of the subpoena or court order;
24
(b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order to
25 issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena
26 or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of

3 Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with the
4 subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this action
5 as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the
6 subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s
7 permission. The Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking
8 protection in that court of its Protected Material – and nothing in these provisions
9 should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this action

A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE
12
PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION
13
The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a Non-
14 Party in this action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information
15 produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the
16 remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be
17 construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.
18
In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to
19 produce a Non-Party’s Protected Material in its possession, and the Party is subject
20 to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s Protected
21 Material, then the Party shall:
22
(a) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party that
23 some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement
24 with a Non-Party;
25
(b) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated Protective
26 Order in this litigation, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably specific

(c) make the information requested available for inspection by the Non-Party.

If the Non-Party fails to object or seek a protective order from this court
3 within 14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving
4 Party may produce the Non-Party’s Protected Material responsive to the discovery
5 request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall
6 not produce any information in its possession or control that is subject to the
7 confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court.
8 Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and
9 expense of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material.

If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed
12 Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this
13 Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in writing the Designating
14 Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve all
15 unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or persons to
16 whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Order, and (d)
17 request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to
18 Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A. Any unauthorized disclosure of
19 Protected Material may constitute contempt of Court.

INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE
21
PROTECTED MATERIAL
22
When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain
23 inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection,
24 the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil
25 Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify whatever
26 procedure may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production
27 without prior privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and
28 (e), insofar as the parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a
1496784.1 05608-025
10
[PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
1 communication or information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work
2 product protection, the parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated
3 protective order submitted to the court subject to the Court’s approval. Nothing in
4 this Order shall be construed to require the production of documents protected from
5 disclosure by the attorney-client privilege and/or the work product doctrine.
6 12.
MISCELLANEOUS
7
12.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of
8 any person to seek its modification by the court in the future. Nothing in this Order
9 shall be construed as precluding a person from seeking additional protection from
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA 90017-3623
LAWYERS
11 including an order that such information not be disclosed or that it be disclosed only
707 WILSHIRE BOULEVARD, SUITE 4000
ANDERSON, MCPHARLIN & CONNERS LLP
10 the court against the disclosure or production of other commercial information,
12 in a designated way.
13
12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this
14 Order, no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to disclosing or
15 producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in Order. Similarly,
16 no Party waives any right to object on any ground to use in evidence of any of the
17 material covered by this Order.
18
12.3 Filing Protected Material. Without written permission from the
19 Designating Party or a court order secured after appropriate notice to all interested
20 persons, a Party may not file in the public record in this action any Protected
21 Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any Protected Material must comply
22 with Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material may only be filed under seal pursuant to a
23 court order authorizing the sealing of the specific Protected Material at issue.
24 Pursuant to Local Rule 79-5, a sealing order will issue only upon a request
25 establishing that the Protected Material at issue is privileged, protectable as a trade
26 secret, or otherwise entitled to protection under the law. If a Receiving Party's
27 request to file Protected Material under seal pursuant to Local Rule 79-5.2.2(b) is
28 denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the public
