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.

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

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.

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

party – the other party shall provide the Producing Party with the name, address, and telephone
