A. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS
Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential,
proprietary or private information for which special protection from public
disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may
be warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to
{00094345;1}
1
8:18-cv-00824-AG-KES
1
enter the following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this
2
Order does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to
3
discovery and that the protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends
4
only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment
5
under the applicable legal principles. The parties further acknowledge, as set forth
6
in Section 12.3, below, that this Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them
7
to file confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the
8
9
procedures that must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a
party seeks permission from the court to file material under seal.
10
11
B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT
12
This action involves allegations of inaccurate credit reporting relating to a
13
14
medical debt potentially owed by a third party who is not the Plaintiff. This
15
litigation contemplates and Plaintiff discovery requests to date seek information
16
relating to disclosure of potentially protected health information. Moreover, as
17
Defendants’ policy and procedure information is likely relevant to their defenses,
18
information relevant to this is likely to involve trade secrets, confidential and
19
proprietary policy and procedure information, other valuable research,
20
development, commercial, financial, technical and/or proprietary information
21
(including, but no limited to, codes, computer systems, software and processes
22
used for credit reporting, and information derived therefrom), for which special
23
protection from public disclosure and from use for any purpose other than
24
prosecution of this action is warranted. Such confidential and proprietary materials
25
and information consist of, among other things, confidential business or financial
26
information, information regarding confidential business practices, or other
27
28
confidential research, development, or commercial information (including
information implicating privacy rights of third parties), information otherwise
{00094345;1}
2
8:18-cv-00824-AG-KES
1
generally unavailable to the public, or which may be privileged or otherwise
2
protected from disclosure under state or federal statutes, court rules, case decisions,
3
or common law. Defendants assert they have invested significant resources in
4
developing their policy and procedure information, and that disclosure of this
5
information to the public and their competitors would compromise that investment.
6
Accordingly, to expedite the flow of information, to facilitate the prompt resolution
7
of disputes over confidentiality of discovery materials, to adequately protect
8
9
10
11
12
13
14
information the parties are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure that the parties
are permitted reasonable necessary uses of such material in preparation for and in
the conduct of trial, to address their handling at the end of the litigation, and serve
the ends of justice, a protective order for such information is justified in this
matter. It is the intent of the parties that information will not be designated as
confidential for tactical reasons and that nothing be so designated without a good
15
faith belief that it has been maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and
16
there is good cause why it should not be part of the public record of this case.

5.
DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1
27
28
DURATION
Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection.
Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under
{00094345;1}
5
8:18-cv-00824-AG-KES
1
this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that
2
qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate
3
for protection only those parts of material, documents, items or oral or written
4
communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents,
5
items or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept
6
unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.
7
8
9
10
11
12
13
14
15
Mass, indiscriminate or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations
that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper
purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to
impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the
Designating Party to sanctions.
If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it
designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must
promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation.
5.2
16
17
Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in
this Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise
18
stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection
19
under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or
20
produced.
Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
21
(a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic
22
23
documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial
24
proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend
25
“CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter “CONFIDENTIAL legend”), to each page that
26
contains protected material. If only a portion of the material on a page qualifies for
27
protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s)
28
(e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).
{00094345;1}
6
8:18-cv-00824-AG-KES
1
A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection
2
need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated
3
which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and
4
before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be
5
deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the
6
documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine
7
which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order.
8
Then, before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix
9
the “CONFIDENTIAL legend” to each page that contains Protected Material. If
10
only a portion of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing
11
Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making
12
appropriate markings in the margins).
(b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party
13
14
identifies the Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of
15
the deposition all protected testimony.
16
(c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and
17
for any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on
18
the exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the
19
legend “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information
20
21
warrants protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify
the protected portion(s).
22
23
24
25
26
5.3
Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent
failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive
the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such
material. Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make
27
reasonable efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the
28
provisions of this Order.

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

7.
ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1
19
Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that
20
is disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this
21
Action only for prosecuting, defending or attempting to settle this Action. Such
22
Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under
23
the conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a
24
Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL
25
DISPOSITION).
Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a
26
27
location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons
28
authorized under this Order.
{00094345;1}
8
8:18-cv-00824-AG-KES
7.2
1
Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless
2
otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a
3
Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated
4
“CONFIDENTIAL” only to:
5
(a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this Action, as
6
well as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably
7
necessary to disclose the information for this Action;
8
9
(b) the officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of
the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action;
10
11
12
13
(c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom
disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the
“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);
(d) the court and its personnel;
14
15
(e) court reporters and their staff;
16
(f) professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and Professional
17
Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have
18
signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);
(g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a
19
20
custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information;
(h) during their depositions, witnesses, and attorneys for witnesses, in
21
22
the Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided: (1) the deposing
23
party requests that the witness sign the form attached as Exhibit 1 hereto; and (2)
24
they will not be permitted to keep any confidential information unless they sign the
25
“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise
26
agreed by the Designating Party or ordered by the court. Pages of transcribed
27
28
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
{00094345;1}
9
8:18-cv-00824-AG-KES

PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED
6
IN OTHER LITIGATION
7
If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation
8
that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as
9
“CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:
10
11
(a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification
shall include a copy of the subpoena or court order;
12
13
14
15
16
(b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or
order to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the
subpoena or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall
include a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and
(c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be
17
18
pursued by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected.
If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served
19
20
with the subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in
21
this action as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which
22
the subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s
23
permission. The Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking
24
protection in that court of its confidential material and nothing in these provisions
25
should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action
26
to disobey a lawful directive from another court.

A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE
PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION
2
(a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a
3
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
11
subject to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s
confidential information, then the Party shall:
12
13
14
15
(1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the NonParty that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality
agreement with a Non-Party;
(2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated
16
17
18
Protective Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably
specific description of the information requested; and
(3) make the information requested available for inspection by the
19
20
Non-Party, if requested.
(c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within
21
22
14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving
23
Party may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the
24
discovery request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving
25
Party shall not produce any information in its possession or control that is subject
26
to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the
27
court. Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden
28
and expense of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material.

UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
3
If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has
4
disclosed Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized
5
under this Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a)
6
notify in writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its
7
best efforts to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform
8
the person or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms
9
of this Order, and (d) request such person or persons to execute the
10

When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain
inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other
protection, the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal
Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify
whatever procedure may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for
production without prior privilege review.
21

26
INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE
If a Producing Party inadvertently discloses information in connection with
the pending litigation to another Party that the Producing Party thereafter claims to
be privileged or protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product
protection (“Disclosed Protected Information”), the disclosure of the Disclosed
Protected Information shall not constitute or be deemed a waiver or forfeiture of
any claim of privilege or work product protection that the Producing Party would
27
28
{00094345;1}
12
8:18-cv-00824-AG-KES
1
otherwise be entitled to assert with respect to the Disclosed Protected Information
2
and its subject matter in this proceeding or in any other federal or state proceeding.
A Producing Party may assert in writing attorney-client privilege or work
3
4
product protection with respect to Disclosed Protected Information. The Receiving
5
Party must—unless it contests the claim of attorney-client privilege or work
6
product protection—within five business days of receipt of that writing, (i) return
7
or destroy all copies of the Disclosed Protected Information, and (ii) provide a
8
certification of counsel that all of the Disclosed Protected Information has been
9
returned or destroyed. Within five business days after assertion of attorney-client
10
privilege or work product protection with respect to Disclosed Protected
11
Information, the Producing Party must produce a privilege log with respect to the
12
Disclosed Protected Information.
13
14
15
12.
12.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of
16
17
MISCELLANEOUS
any person to seek its modification by the Court in the future.
18
12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this
19
Protective Order, no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to
20
disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in
21
this Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on
22
23
any ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective
Order.
24
25
26
27
28
12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any
Protected Material must comply with Local Civil 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
{00094345;1}
13
8:18-cv-00824-AG-KES
1
under seal is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information
2
in the public record unless otherwise instructed by the court.
3

13.
FINAL DISPOSITION
5
After the final disposition of this Action, as defined in paragraph 4, within
6
60 days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must
7
return all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As
8
used in this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts,
9
compilations, summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the
10
11
12
13
14
15
16
17
Protected Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the
Receiving Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if
not the same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that
(1) identifies (by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was
returned or destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any
copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or
capturing any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel
18
are entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, trial,
19
deposition, and hearing transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition
20
and trial exhibits, expert reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert
21
work product, even if such materials contain Protected Material. Any such
22
archival copies that contain or constitute Protected Material remain subject to this
23
Protective Order as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION).
