Mendez Defendants. 26 27 28 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 1190443 PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com 1 WHEREAS, Plaintiffs and/or any other party may seek the production of documents and 2 information from Defendants, Mylan Inc., Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc., and Mylan Technologies Inc., 3 (collectively, “Mylan”), and Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (formerly known as Ortho-McNeil-Janssen 4 Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and improperly sued as Janssen Pharmaceuticals) (“Janssen”) (Mylan and 5 Janssen collectively referred to herein as “Product Defendants”); 6 WHEREAS, Product Defendants allege such documents contain competitive sales, marketing, 7 or product information including, but not limited to: (1) descriptions, identifications, changes, and 8 modifications of any sort made to equipment used in the manufacturing process; (2) operations 9 involved in the entire manufacturing process; (3) manufacturing practices and procedures and specific 10 records illustrating same; (4) formulations and specifications relating to the product at issue; (5) 11 practices, procedures and protocols relating to quality control and quality assurance; (6) other 12 scientific marketing and/or research and development information; and/or (7) corporate financial 13 Janssen-specific information and/or Mylan-specific information which Product Defendants deem 14 confidential. 15 WHEREAS, Product Defendants deem that knowledge of any of the foregoing categories of 16 information to the public and specifically to any competitor would cause a severe competitive injury 17 to Product Defendants in that many years have been invested in researching, developing, 18 manufacturing, and marketing the products at issue, and Product Defendants currently rely on such 19 expertise; 20 WHEREAS, it has been agreed by and among the parties in the above-styled action, through 21 their counsel, that such documents may include trade secrets that are protected under applicable state 22 and federal law; 23 WHEREAS, it has been agreed by and among the parties in the above-styled action, through 24 their counsel, that a Protective Order preserving the confidentiality of certain documents and 25 information should be entered by the Court; and 26 WHEREAS, the Court has reviewed the terms and conditions of this Protective Order 27 submitted and stipulated to by the parties, and has found that the confidentiality provisions of this 28 Protective Order are proper. 2 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 1190443 PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com 1 IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT: 2 1. Non-Disclosure of Documents. Documents produced by Product Defendants may be 3 stamped “CONFIDENTIAL – SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER” and/or “Protected Document. 4 Document Subject to Protective Order” (hereinafter “Protected Documents”) to signify that the 5 documents are subject to protection by this Order. Interrogatory answers, responses to Requests for 6 Admission, deposition transcripts and exhibits, pleadings, motions, affidavits, briefs, summaries, 7 notes, computer-generated material, computer discs or retrievable data, other means of storage or 8 duplication, and oral statements or communications that quote, summarize, or contain information 9 from the Protected Documents are also subject to protection by this Order. No Protected Document 10 or any portion of any Protected Document produced by Product Defendants may be disclosed to any 11 person, except as permitted in paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 below. 12 2. Protected Documents and/or any portion thereof deemed confidential may be disclosed 13 to (a) counsel of record who are actively engaged in the conduct of this litigation; (b) the partners, 14 associates, secretaries, paralegals, and employees of such counsel to the extent reasonably necessary 15 to render professional services in the above-styled action; and (c) any party to this litigation, including 16 current employees or representatives of Product Defendants, subject to the restrictions set forth in 17 paragraphs 3 and 4. 18 3. In addition, Protected Documents and/or any portion thereof deemed confidential may 19 be disclosed to (a) employees of the producing party noticed for depositions or designated as trial 20 witnesses; and (b) outside consultants or experts retained by any party or their counsel for the purpose 21 of assisting counsel in the litigation or to testify at trial, provided, however, that such experts or 22 consultants are not presently employed by, nor have any present intention to be employed by, any 23 party or a competitor of any party. Before any Protected Document may be disclosed to any person 24 described in (a) and/or (b) of this paragraph, however, the person so described must sign the attached 25 Confidentiality Agreement. The Confidentiality Agreement reflects that the signatory has read this 26 Protective Order, understands that anything other than the inadvertent disclosure of Protected 27 Documents constitutes contempt of court, and consents to the exercise of personal jurisdiction by this 28 Court. The original of each signed Confidentiality Agreement shall be retained by counsel and a copy 3 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 1190443 PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com 1 thereof served upon Product Defendants’ counsel, except that a copy of the Confidentiality 2 Agreement signed by a person described in subsection (b) need not be served upon Product 3 Defendants’ counsel until such person is disclosed as a witness. 4 4. Protected Documents subject to this Protective Order shall not be disclosed to any 5 Competitor of Product Defendants. For purposes of this Order, “Competitor” shall be defined as any 6 entity or person currently engaged in the commercial discovery and/or commercial development 7 and/or commercialization of transdermal or patch technology designed to deliver pharmaceuticals 8 through the skin, and shall include any agent, employee, consultant, or other person currently 9 similarly affiliated with such entity or person. For purposes of this Order, Mylan and Janssen and 10 their agents, employees, consultants or other persons similarly affiliated with Mylan and Janssen 11 respectively, are deemed to be Competitors. For purposes of the captioned matter, Competitor shall 12 not refer to those individuals identified in paragraph 2(a) & (b). Before disclosing any Protected 13 Document to any person listed in paragraph 2(c), 3(a) or 3(b), who may also be a Competitor of 14 Product Defendants, the procedures in this paragraph shall be followed to assure that no confidential 15 information is disclosed to any Competitor. 16 Entry of this Protective Order by the Court imposes a duty upon any person who may be a 17 Competitor of Product Defendants to whom any Protected Documents are to be disclosed to make a 18 good faith determination as to whether he or she is a Competitor. 19 a. If the person determines himself or herself to be a Competitor, neither the 20 Protected Documents nor the contents thereof shall be discussed with or disclosed to such 21 person. 22 b. If the person determines himself or herself not to be a Competitor, that person 23 and counsel who intends to disclose Protected Documents to that person shall execute 24 Affidavit “A” and Affidavit “B” respectively in addition to the Confidentiality Agreement 25 attached hereto. Except as otherwise provided in paragraph 3, the original Affidavits and 26 Confidentiality Agreement shall be retained by counsel and a copy thereof served upon 27 Product Defendants’ counsel seven (7) business days prior to the disclosure of any Protected 28 Documents and/or the contents thereof. 4 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 1190443 PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com 1 c. If the person is unable to determine whether he or she is a Competitor, counsel 2 for the disclosing party shall prepare a written statement identifying the potential Competitor, 3 including the name and current residence of the potential Competitor, his or her job title and 4 employer’s name and address for the previous five (5) years. The original of such statement 5 shall be retained by counsel and a copy thereof served in accordance with applicable rules of 6 Civil Procedure upon Product Defendants’ counsel. Product Defendants’ counsel shall have 7 seven (7) business days to object to the disclosure of Protected Documents to the potential 8 Competitor. If no objection is made, the Affidavits and Confidentiality Agreement shall be 9 executed and served as described in subsection (b). 10 If there is an uncertainty or a dispute as to whether the person is a Competitor, any 11 party may seek a ruling from this Court regarding the same. Pending a ruling by the Court on 12 that dispute, no Protected Documents shall be disclosed to the potential Competitor. Nothing 13 herein shall prevent Plaintiffs from seeking leave of court upon good cause shown to disclose 14 Protected Documents to a Competitor of Product Defendants. 15 5. Certain documents prepared in compliance with the regulations of the United States 16 Food and Drug Administration contain material that is privileged and confidential under the patient- 17 physician privilege or specific federal regulations governing clinical trials and adverse drug 18 experience reporting. 19 Defendants in response to a discovery request shall have the name and address of the patient and 20 physician redacted as well as all identifying information regarding the reporter, but such redaction 21 shall not be done in such a manner as to redact material data in such reports. 22 6. 23 To protect these privileges, all such documents produced by Product Documents at Depositions. a. A deponent who is not a current employee of Product Defendants may, during 24 the deposition, be shown and examined about the Protected Documents as long as disclosure 25 comports with the provisions of the preceding paragraphs, although the deponent can comply 26 with the requirements of the preceding paragraphs via oral testimony on the record under oath 27 during the deposition instead of actually signing the affidavits. 28 former employee of Product Defendants may be shown a Protected Document if such former 5 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 1190443 PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com Notwithstanding such, a 1 employee authored or has previously seen such document. A deponent shall not retain or copy 2 portions of the transcript of his or her deposition containing confidential information not 3 provided by the deponent or the entities whom he or she represents unless he or she signs the 4 Confidentiality Agreement as well as the applicable Affidavit described above. 5 b. Any party and any deponent may, within thirty (30) days after receiving a 6 deposition transcript, designate the transcript as protected pursuant to this Protective Order by 7 written notice to all counsel of the designation and by having the cover page of the transcript 8 marked as follows: “PROTECTED DOCUMENT – SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER,” 9 “CONFIDENTIAL – SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER,” and/or “Protected Document. 10 Document Subject to Protective Order.” During the initial thirty (30) day period, the entire 11 deposition will be treated as subject to protection against disclosure under this Protective 12 Order, but if no party or deponent timely designates the transcript as protected, then the 13 transcript shall not thereafter be subject to this Protective Order. However, deposition exhibits 14 that are protected documents pursuant to this Protective Order will continue to be protected 15 without further designation being required. The continued protection of such documents will 16 not be dependent upon the transcript being designated as protected. If there is uncertainty or 17 any dispute as to whether a transcript has been properly designated as protected, any party 18 may seek a ruling from this Court. Pending a ruling by the Court, the entire deposition will be 19 treated as subject to protection against disclosure under this Protective Order. Deposition 20 transcripts designated as protected may be filed with the Court only under seal, consistent with 21 the provisions of Paragraph 7. 22 7. Filing. The Protected Documents are not to be filed with this Court except when 23 required in connection with motions or other matters pending before this Court. If any party intends 24 to file Protected Documents, such party shall adhere to the provisions for sealing a record under the 25 applicable rules of civil procedure and local rules. Any motion quoting or revealing the contents of 26 such Protected Documents or information shall also be filed under seal and a redacted public version 27 may be filed without quoting or revealing the contents of any confidential information. If any party 28 notifies another party that they intend or need to file one or more of the Protected Documents in 6 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 1190443 PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com 1 response to a motion previously filed, the party who filed such motion specifically agrees to provide 2 whatever extension or continuance is necessary to file such response to allow for compliance with 3 paragraph 7. Specifically, upon request, the parties agree to provide an extension or continuance for 4 the filing of any response to any motion to provide appropriate time to comply with the applicable law 5 regarding filing such documents under seal. 6 8. Documents used at Trial. All trials are open to the public. Absent order of the Court, 7 there will be no restrictions on the use of any document that may be introduced by any party during 8 the trial. If a party intends to present at trial Protected Documents or information derived therefrom, 9 such party shall provide advance notice to the other parties at least five (5) days before the 10 commencement of trial by identifying the documents or information at issue as specifically as 11 possible (i.e., by Bates number, page range, deposition transcript lines, etc.). The Court may thereafter 12 make such orders as are necessary to govern the use of such documents or information at trial. 13 9. Declassification. Any “CONFIDENTIAL – SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER” 14 or “Protected Document. Document Subject to Protective Order” designation is subject to challenge 15 by any party or nonparty with standing to object (hereafter “party”). Before filing any motions or 16 objections to a confidentiality designation with the Court, the objecting party shall have an obligation 17 to meet and confer in a good faith effort to resolve the objection by agreement. If agreement is 18 reached confirming or waiving the “CONFIDENTIAL – SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER” or 19 “Protected Document. Document Subject to Protective Order” designation as to any documents 20 subject to the objection, the designating party shall serve on all parties a notice specifying the 21 documents and the nature of the agreement. If agreement is not reached, the objecting party may 22 request from this Court a ruling that a Document or deposition transcript is not entitled to continued 23 protection under this Protective Order. 24 10. Subpoena by Other Courts or Agencies. If another court or an administrative agency 25 subpoenas or orders production of Protected Documents which a party has obtained under the terms 26 of this Protective Order, the party shall promptly notify the producing party’s counsel of such 27 subpoena or order. Protected Documents shall not be produced by the party until the producing 28 party’s counsel has been notified of such subpoena or order and has had a reasonable opportunity to 7 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 1190443 PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com 1 protect the producing party’s interest by objecting to the subpoena or order. 2 11. Client Consultation. Nothing in this Protective Order shall prevent or otherwise 3 restrict counsel from rendering advice to, or consulting with, their clients. All parties and their 4 counsel, however, are bound by the terms of this Protective Order. 5 12. Use. Protected Documents and any information contained therein may be used for the 6 preparation and trial, appeal, or retrial of the above-styled action. In addition, Protected Documents 7 with a “DUR” Bates stamp prefix may be used in other Duragesic® Fentanyl Transdermal System 8 cases in which Heygood, Orr & Pearson is lead trial counsel so long as this Protective Order or 9 similar Stipulated Protective Order is entered in those cases and Heygood, Orr & Pearson gives 10 Tucker, Ellis & West LLP written notice of the documents it intends to use. Additionally, Janssen 11 agrees that it will not be a violation of any Protective Order for Heygood, Orr & Pearson to use such 12 Protected Documents produced in other Duragesic® Fentanyl Transdermal System cases against 13 ALZA and/or Janssen Defendants where Heygood, Orr & Pearson was or is lead counsel in the 14 preparation and trial, appeal, or retrial of this action or any other Duragesic® Fentanyl Transdermal 15 System cases against ALZA and/or Janssen Defendants where Heygood, Orr & Pearson is lead 16 counsel. 17 Further, Protected Documents produced pursuant to the Global Discovery Agreement between 18 Heygood, Orr & Pearson and Mylan with a “MYLAN” Bates stamp prefix may be used in other 19 Mylan Fentanyl Transdermal System® cases in which Heygood, Orr & Pearson is lead trial counsel, 20 pursuant to the Global Discovery Agreement between Mylan and Heygood, Orr & Pearson, with the 21 exception of documents that are expressly produced for single cases only, so long as this Protective 22 Order or similar Stipulated Protective Order is entered in those cases and Heygood, Orr & Pearson 23 gives counsel for Mylan written notice of the documents it intends to use. Additionally, Mylan agrees 24 that it will not be a violation of any Protective Order for Heygood, Orr & Pearson to use such 25 Protected Documents produced in other Mylan Fentanyl Transdermal System® cases against Mylan 26 Defendants where Heygood, Orr & Pearson was or is lead counsel in the preparation and trial, appeal, 27 or retrial of this action or any other Mylan Fentanyl Transdermal System® cases against Mylan 28 Defendants where Heygood, Orr & Pearson is lead counsel. 8 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 1190443 PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com 1 13. Non-Termination. Within 45 days after final conclusion of all aspects of all cases that 2 Heygood, Orr & Pearson are handling against Mylan and/or Janssen, the Protected Documents and all 3 copies of same (other than exhibits of record) shall be returned to counsel for Mylan and/or Janssen or 4 be destroyed. 5 provided to and/or reviewed by any consultants and/or experts retained by any party. 6 summaries, memos, computer data bases, and other information compilations from the Protected 7 Documents shall also be destroyed. All counsel of record shall make certification of compliance 8 herewith and shall deliver the same to counsel for Mylan and/or Janssen not more than 60 days after 9 final termination of this litigation. 10 14. This includes Protected Documents produced by Product Defendants that were Notes, Continuing Jurisdiction. The provisions of this Protective Order shall remain in full 11 force and effect and each person subject to this Order shall continue to be subject to the jurisdiction of 12 this Court, for the purposes of this Order, in perpetuity, and the Court shall not be divested of 13 jurisdiction of any person or of the subject matter of this Order by the occurrence of conclusion of this 14 case, or by the filing of a notice of appeal, or other pleading which would have the effect of divesting 15 this Court of jurisdiction of this matter generally. 16 15. Inadvertent Disclosure. Any inadvertent disclosure of confidential, proprietary, or 17 privileged material will not be construed as a waiver, in whole or in part, of (1) the Producing Party’s 18 claims of confidentiality or privilege either as to the specific information inadvertently or 19 unintentionally disclosed or more generally as to the subject matter of the information disclosed, or 20 (2) the party’s right to designate the material as confidential pursuant to this Order. A written 21 representation by counsel for the Producing Party that the disclosure was inadvertent shall be deemed 22 prima facie evidence of that fact. The Producing Party shall promptly notify the other party of an 23 inadvertent disclosure following discovery of the inadvertent production, and that other party (i) shall 24 in the case of a privileged document, return the inadvertently disclosed document forthwith, as well as 25 any and all copies; or (ii) in the case of a confidential, proprietary document, shall mark it and all 26 copies, “CONFIDENTIAL – SUBJECT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER,” and/or “Protected Document. 27 Document Subject to Protective Order.” In the event that the other party cannot comply with these 28 requirements – because, for example, the inadvertently produced document has been given to a third 9 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 1190443 PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com 1 party – the other party shall provide the Producing Party with the name, address, and telephone 2 number of such person(s) as well as the date of and reason for the transmission of the document. 3 4 Date: September 27, 2011 DREYER BABICH BUCCOLA WOOD, LLP 5 6 By: /s/ Craig Sheffer (as authorized on 9/27/11) Craig C.
