PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS

2

Disclosure and discovery activity in this action are likely to involve production of confidential,

DURATION

6

Even after final disposition of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations imposed by this

7

Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in writing or a court order

8

otherwise directs. Final disposition shall be deemed to be the later of (1) dismissal of all claims and

9

defenses in this action, with or without prejudice; and (2) final judgment herein after the completion and

10

exhaustion of all appeals, rehearings, remands, trials, or reviews of this action, including the time limits

11

for filing any motions or applications for extension of time pursuant to applicable law.

5.

13

DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1

Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. Each Party or

14

Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under this Order must take care to limit

15

any such designation to specific material that qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating

16

Party must designate 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, items, or

18

communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of

19

this Order.

20

Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations that are shown to

21

be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber

22

or retard the case development process or to impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties)

23

expose the Designating Party to sanctions.

24

If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it designated for

25

protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must promptly notify all other Parties

26

that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation.

27

Manner

of

Designations.

U.S.D.C., E.D. CAL., NO. 1:15-CV-01872-JAM-EFB

2

the material is disclosed or produced.
Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

3

(a)

for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic documents, but

4

excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the Producing Party affix

5

the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” to each page that contains protected material. If only a portion or

6

portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify

7

the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).

8

A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents or materials available for inspection

9

need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated which material it

10

would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before the designation, all of the material

11

made available for inspection shall be deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has

12

identified the documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which

13

documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing the

14

specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL” legend to each page that

15

contains Protected Material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for

16

protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making

17

appropriate markings in the margins).

18

(b)

for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or trial proceedings, that the

19

Designating Party identify all protected testimony on the record during the deposition or proceeding or

20

within 30 days after receiving the transcript.

21

(c)

for information produced in some form other than documentary and for any other

22

tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the exterior of the container or

23

containers in which the information or item is stored the legend “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion

24

or portions of the information or item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable,

25

shall identify the protected portion(s).

26
27
28

Such designation will, without more, subject the information produced or provided under said
designation to the provisions of this protective order.
5.3

Inadvertent Failures to Designate.

If timely corrected, an inadvertent failure to
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
U.S.D.C., E.D. CAL., NO. 1:15-CV-01872-JAM-EFB

1

designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the Designating Party’s right to

2

secure protection under this Order for such material. In the event that a Party inadvertently produces

3

Protected Material without an appropriate designation, the Producing Party shall give written notice of

4

such inadvertent production to the Receiving Party within twenty (20) days of discovering the

5

inadvertent production. The Producing Party shall also give the Receiving Party an appropriately

6

designated copy of the Protected Material. Upon receiving notice of the inadvertent production, the

7

Receiving Party shall promptly return the inadvertently produced Protected Materials, along with all

8

copies of such Protected Material, and shall retain only the appropriately designated copy of the

9

Protected Material.

CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1

Timing of Challenges.

Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a designation of

12

confidentiality at any time.

13

designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable, substantial unfairness, unnecessary economic burdens, or

14

a significant disruption or delay of the litigation, a Party does not waive its right to challenge a

15

confidentiality designation by electing not to mount a challenge promptly after the original designation

16

is disclosed.

17

6.2

Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating Party’s confidentiality

Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute resolution process by

18

providing written notice of each designation it is challenging and describing the basis for each challenge.

19

To avoid ambiguity as to whether a challenge has been made, the written notice must recite that the

20

challenge to confidentiality is being made in accordance with this specific paragraph of the Protective

21

Order. The parties shall attempt to resolve each challenge in good faith and must begin the process by

22

conferring directly (in voice to voice dialogue) within 14 days of the date of service of notice. In

23

conferring, the Challenging Party must explain the basis for its belief that the confidentiality designation

24

was not proper and must give the Designating Party an opportunity to review the designated material, to

25

reconsider the circumstances, and, if no change in designation is offered, to explain the basis for the

26

chosen designation. A Challenging Party may proceed to the next stage of the challenge process only if

27

it has engaged in this meet and confer process first or establishes that the Designating Party is unwilling

28

to participate in the meet and confer process in a timely manner.

6.3

Judicial Intervention.

If the Parties cannot resolve a challenge without court

2

intervention, the Designating Party shall file and serve a motion to retain confidentiality within 21 days

3

of the initial notice of challenge or within 14 days of the parties agreeing that the meet and confer

4

process will not resolve their dispute, whichever is earlier. Each such motion must be accompanied by a

5

competent declaration affirming that the movant has complied with the meet and confer requirements

6

imposed in the preceding paragraph. Failure by the Designating Party to make such a motion including

7

the required declaration within 21 days (or 14 days, if applicable) shall automatically waive the

8

confidentiality designation for each challenged designation. In addition, the Challenging Party may file

9

a motion challenging a confidentiality designation at any time if there is good cause for doing so,

10

including a challenge to the designation of a deposition transcript or any portions thereof. Any motion

11

brought pursuant to this provision must be accompanied by a competent declaration affirming that the

12

movant has complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed by the preceding paragraph.

13

The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the Designating Party.

14

Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary

15

expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the

16

Designating Party has waived the confidentiality designation by failing to file a motion to retain

17

confidentiality as described above, all parties shall continue to afford the material in question the level

18

of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the court rules on the

19

challenge.

21

ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1

Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is disclosed or

22

produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this case only for prosecuting,

23

defending, or attempting to settle this litigation. Such Protected Material may be disclosed only to the

24

categories of persons and under the conditions described in this Order. When the litigation has been

25

terminated, a Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL

26

DISPOSITION).

27
28

Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a location and in a
secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons authorized under this Order.

10

determination by the court from which the subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the

11

Designating Party’s permission. The Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking

12

protection in that court of its confidential material – and nothing in these provisions should be construed

UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

11

to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this Stipulated Protective Order, the

12

Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized

13

disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material,

14

(c) inform the person or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this

INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE PROTECTED
MATERIAL

19

Inadvertent production of a document or other information subject to a claim of privilege or

20

attorney work product will not waive the privilege or the attorney work product doctrine. If a Producing

21

Party produces any material that the Producing Party thereafter claims to be privileged or protected, the

22

Producing Party will give notice thereof to the Receiving Party in writing. Within five days, the

23

material in question (and all notes and work product quoting, referring or relating thereto) will then be

24

returned to the Producing Party, and the Receiving Party will certify that any and all copies have been

25

retrieved and destroyed. If the Receiving Party has disclosed the information to others before being

26

notified of the claim of privilege or protection, the Receiving Party must take reasonable steps to

27

retrieve and return or destroy the disclosed information. The Receiving Party upon receiving a privilege

1

make any claim that the production of the document caused a waiver of any privilege or protection.

2

Moreover, absent a ruling that the document, data, or information at issue is not privileged or protected,

3

a Receiving Party may not disclose nor make any use whatsoever of the information disclosed in or

4

derived from the document or information at issue. If a Party or counsel for a Party receives a document

5

or other information that appears on its face to be inadvertently produced and subject to a claim of

6

privilege or attorney work product, counsel for the Receiving Party will (i) inform counsel for the

7

Producing Party promptly after becoming aware of the disclosure; (ii) promptly return the document or

8

other information and all copies thereof; and (iii) promptly destroy all notes and other documents

9

containing any reference to, or use of, the inadvertently produced information.

12

MISCELLANEOUS
Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any person to seek

its modification by the court in the future.
12.2

13

Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this Protective Order

14

no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to disclosing or producing any information

15

or item on any ground not addressed in this Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any

16

right to object on any ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order.
12.3

17

Filing Protected Material. Without written permission from the Designating Party or a

18

court order secured after appropriate notice to all interested persons, a Party may not file in the public

19

record in this action any Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any Protected Material

20

must comply with the applicable rules for filing documents under seal. Protected Material may only be

21

filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the specific Protected Material at

22

issue. If a Receiving Party's request to file Protected Material under seal is denied by the court, then the

23

Receiving Party may file the information in the public record unless otherwise instructed by the court.

FINAL DISPOSITION

25

Within 60 days after the final disposition of this action, as defined in paragraph 4, each

26

Receiving Party must return all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As

Producing Party (and, if not the same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline

3

that (1) identifies (by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or

4

destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies, abstracts, compilations,

5

summaries or any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding

6

this provision, Counsel are entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, trial,

7

deposition, and hearing transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial exhibits,

8

expert reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert work product, even if such materials

9

contain Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or constitute Protected Material
