STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1.

PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS

2

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

3

confidential or private information for which special protection from public disclosure and from

4

use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be warranted. The parties believe

5

that a Court order is the best means to address concerns regarding protection of such material to

6

ensure that there are proper judicial procedures in place to address disputes about confidentiality

7

designations between the parties should they arise and to ensure full compliance with this

8

agreement. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the court to enter the

9

following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does not confer

10

blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection it affords

11

from public disclosure and use extends only to the limited information or items that are entitled

12

to confidential treatment under the applicable legal principles. The parties further acknowledge,

13

as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to

14

file confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 141 sets forth the procedures that must

15

be followed and the standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court

16

to file material under seal.

17

DEFINITIONS
2.1

Challenging Party: a Party or Non-Party that challenges the designation of

information or items under this Order.
2.2

“CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items: information (regardless of how it is

21

generated, stored or maintained) or tangible things that qualify for protection under Federal Rule

22

of Civil Procedure 26(c). Pursuant to Local Rule 141.1, the parties identify the following types

23

of information potentially eligible for protection hereunder. By noting that such generally

24

described categories of information may potentially be eligible for protection (in order to comply

25

with Local Rule 141.1(c)(1)), the parties do not agree that all such documents that may fall

26

within the specified categories below are confidential (as those determinations will have to be

27

made as specified in Section 5, below.). The parties also reserve their rights to challenge

28

“CONFIDENTIAL” designations pursuant to Section 6 below.
1
Case No. 2:16-cv-00603-TLN-EF

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

The types of information eligible for protection under this Order include:

2

2.2(a) Private third-party financial information, medical information, and sexual

3

history information, disclosed to police during the course of the investigation. Such information

4

is tangential to the issues raised in the complaint, may cause unnecessary embarrassment, and

5

implicates these witnesses’ right to privacy.

6

2.2(b) Witness names and contact information, disclosed to police during the

7

investigation. This information implicates these witnesses’ right to privacy, especially as it

8

relates to potential unwanted press inquiries in this much publicized case.

9

2.2(c) Police officer “personnel records” as defined by California Penal Code

10

section 832.8. Some of this information may be unnecessary to the litigation, may be

11

confidential pursuant to California Penal Code section 832.7, and its disclosure may compromise

12

the safety of officers and their families.

13

2.2(d) Plaintiffs’ medical, counseling, and psychiatric information, which

14

likewise implicates their rights to privacy. See Jurgens v. Dubendorf, 2015 WL 6163464, at *2

15

(E.D. Cal. Oct. 19, 2015).

16

2.2(e) Employment information. The parties anticipate that certain employment

17

records will contain information of parties and third-party witnesses that implicates their right to

18

privacy. Guitron v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., 2011 WL 4345191, at *1 (N.D. Cal. Sept. 13, 2011)

19

(“An employee's personnel records and employment information are protected by this

20

constitutional right to privacy.”); Oyarzo v. Tuolumne Fire Dist., 2013 WL 1758798, at *9 (E.D.

21

Cal. Apr. 24, 2013) (stipulated protective order necessary to protect third party employee

22

personnel files).

23

2.2(f) Individual Financial Information: The parties expect that certain financial

24

records and other communications and documents may contain financial information of parties

25

and third-party witnesses that implicates their right to privacy. “[F]inancial information is

26

protected by the right to privacy under California law and these privacy rights are generally

27

recognized in federal court.” E.E.O.C. v. California Psychiatric Transitions, 258 F.R.D. 391,

28

395 (E.D. Cal. 2009) (permitting protective order to cover financial information).

it produces in disclosures or in responses to discovery as “CONFIDENTIAL.”
2.5

Disclosure or Discovery Material: all items or information, regardless of the

6

medium or manner in which it is generated, stored, or maintained (including, among other things,

7

testimony, transcripts, and tangible things), that are produced or generated in disclosures or

8

responses to discovery in this matter.

9

2.6

Expert: a person with specialized knowledge or experience in a matter pertinent

11

a consultant in this action.

Counsel does not include Outside Counsel of Record or any other outside counsel.
2.8

Non-Party: any natural person, partnership, corporation, association, or other

legal entity not named as a Party to this action.
2.9

Outside Counsel of Record: attorneys who are not employees of a party to this

17

action but are retained to represent or advise a party to this action and have appeared in this

18

action on behalf of that party or are affiliated with a law firm which has appeared on behalf of

19

that party.

consultants, retained experts, and Outside Counsel of Record (and their support staffs).
2.11

Producing Party: a Party or Non-Party that produces Disclosure or Discovery

Material in this action.
2.12

Professional Vendors: persons or entities that provide litigation support services

25

(e.g., photocopying, videotaping, translating, preparing exhibits or demonstrations, and

26

organizing, storing, or retrieving data in any form or medium) and their employees and

28

2.13

1

“CONFIDENTIAL.”

Receiving Party: a Party that receives Disclosure or Discovery Material from a

3

Producing Party.

4

3.

5

The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only Protected Material

SCOPE

6

(as defined above), but also (1) any information copied or extracted from Protected Material; (2)

7

all copies, excerpts, summaries, or compilations of Protected Material; and (3) any testimony,

8

conversations, or presentations by Parties or their Counsel that might reveal Protected Material.

9

However, the protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order do not cover the following

10

information: (a) any information that is in the public domain at the time of disclosure to a

11

Receiving Party or becomes part of the public domain after its disclosure to a Receiving Party as

12

a result of publication not involving a violation of this Order, including becoming part of the

13

public record through trial or otherwise; and (b) any information known to the Receiving Party

14

prior to the disclosure or obtained by the Receiving Party after the disclosure from a source who

15

obtained the information lawfully and under no obligation of confidentiality to the Designating

16

Party. Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by a separate agreement or order.

17

4.

DURATION

18

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

19

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

20

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

21

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

22

the completion and exhaustion of all appeals, rehearings, remands, trials, or reviews of this

23

action, including the time limits for filing any motions or applications for extension of time

24

pursuant to applicable law.

25

5.

26

DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1

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

27

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

28

to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies under the appropriate standards.
4
Case No. 2:16-cv-00603-TLN-EF

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

The Designating Party must designate for protection only those parts of material, documents,

2

items, or oral or written communications that qualify – so that other portions of the material,

3

documents, items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept

4

unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.

5

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

6

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

7

unnecessarily encumber or retard the case development process or to impose unnecessary

8

expenses and burdens on other parties) expose the Designating Party to sanctions.

9

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

10

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

11

Parties that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation.

12

5.2

Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in this Order

13

(see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise stipulated or ordered,

14

Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection under this Order must be clearly so

15

designated before the material is disclosed or produced.

16

Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

17

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

18

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

19

Party affix the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” to each page that contains protected material. If only

20

a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also

21

must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the

22

margins).

23

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

24

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

25

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

26

of the material made available for inspection shall be deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the

27

inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party

28

must determine which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order.
5
Case No. 2:16-cv-00603-TLN-EF

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

Then, before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the

2

“CONFIDENTIAL” legend to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion or

3

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

4

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

5

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

6

Designating Party identify on the record, before the close of the deposition, hearing, or other

7

proceeding, all protected testimony.

8
9

(c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for any other
tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the exterior of the

10

container or containers in which the information or item is stored the legend

11

“CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information or item warrant protection,

12

the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected portion(s).

13

5.3

Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent failure to

14

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

15

right to secure protection under this Order for such material. Upon timely correction of a

16

designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts to assure that the material is

17

treated in accordance with the provisions of this Order.

18

6.

19

CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1

Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a designation of

20

confidentiality at any time. Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating Party’s confidentiality

21

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

22

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

23

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

24

original designation is disclosed.

25

6.2

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

26

process by providing written notice of each designation it is challenging and describing the basis

27

for each challenge. To avoid ambiguity as to whether a challenge has been made, the written

28

notice must recite that the challenge to confidentiality is being made in accordance with this
6
Case No. 2:16-cv-00603-TLN-EF

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

specific paragraph of the Protective Order. The parties shall attempt to resolve each challenge in

2

good faith and must begin the process by conferring directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other

3

forms of communication are not sufficient) within 14 days of the date of service of notice. In

4

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

5

designation was not proper and must give the Designating Party an opportunity to review the

6

designated material, to reconsider the circumstances, and, if no change in designation is offered,

7

to explain the basis for the chosen designation. A Challenging Party may proceed to the next

8

stage of the challenge process only if it has engaged in this meet and confer process first or

9

establishes that the Designating Party is unwilling to participate in the meet and confer process in

10

a timely manner.

11

6.3

Judicial Intervention. If the Parties cannot resolve a challenge without court

12

intervention, the Designating Party shall file and serve a motion to retain confidentiality under

13

Civil Local Rule 251 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 141, if applicable) within 21 days

14

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

15

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

16

accompanied by a competent declaration affirming that the movant has complied with the meet

17

and confer requirements imposed in the preceding paragraph. Failure by the Designating Party to

18

make such a motion including the required declaration within 21 days (or 14 days, if applicable)

19

shall automatically waive the confidentiality designation for each challenged designation. In

20

addition, the Challenging Party may file a motion challenging a confidentiality designation at

21

any time if there is good cause for doing so, including a challenge to the designation of a

22

deposition transcript or any portions thereof. Any motion brought pursuant to this provision must

23

be accompanied by a competent declaration affirming that the movant has complied with the

24

meet and confer requirements imposed by the preceding paragraph.

25

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

26

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

27

unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Challenging Party to

28

sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived the confidentiality designation by failing to
7
Case No. 2:16-cv-00603-TLN-EF

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

file a motion to retain confidentiality as described above, all parties shall continue to afford the

2

material in question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing Party’s

3

designation until the court rules on the challenge.

4

7.

5

ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1

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

6

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

7

prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this litigation. Such Protected Material may be

8

disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the conditions described in this Order.

9

When the litigation has been terminated, a Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of

10

section 13 below (FINAL DISPOSITION).

11

Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a location and

12

in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons authorized under this Order.

13

7.2

Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless otherwise

14

ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a Receiving Party may

15

disclose any information or item designated “CONFIDENTIAL” only to:

16

(a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this action, as well as employees

17

of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably necessary to disclose the information

18

for this litigation and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” that

19

is attached hereto as Exhibit A;

20

(b) the officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of the Receiving

21

Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed the

22

“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);

23

(c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is

24

reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and

25

Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);

26

(d) the court and its personnel;

27

(e) court reporters and their staff, professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and

28

Professional Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who
8
Case No. 2:16-cv-00603-TLN-EF

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);

2

(f) during their depositions, witnesses in the action to whom disclosure is reasonably

3

necessary and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit

4

A), unless otherwise agreed by the Designating Party or ordered by the court. Pages of

5

transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected Material must be

6

separately bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted

7

under this Stipulated Protective Order.

8
9
10

(g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a custodian or
other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information.
8.

PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN OTHER

11

LITIGATION

12

If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation that compels

13

disclosure of any information or items designated in this action as “CONFIDENTIAL,” that

14

Party must:

15
16

(a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall include a
copy of the subpoena or court order;

17

(b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order to issue in the

18

other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena or order is subject to this

19

Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and

20
21
22

(c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued by the
Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected.
If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with the

23

subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this action as

24

“CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the subpoena or order

25

issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s permission. The Designating Party

26

shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in that court of its confidential material –

27

and nothing in these provisions should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving

28

Party in this action to disobey a lawful directive from another court.
9
Case No. 2:16-cv-00603-TLN-EF

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

9.

A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE PRODUCED IN THIS

2

LITIGATION

3

(a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a Non-Party in this

4

action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information produced by Non-Parties in

5

connection with this litigation is protected by the remedies and relief provided by this Order.

6

Nothing in these provisions should be construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking

7

additional protections.

8

(b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to produce a Non-

9

Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is subject to an agreement with

10

the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential information, then the Party shall:

11
12

(1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party that some or all of
the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement with a Non-Party;

13

(2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated Protective Order in this

14

litigation, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably specific description of the

15

information requested; and

16

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

17

(c) If the Non-Party fails to object or seek a protective order from this court within 14

18

days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may produce

19

the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery request. If the Non-Party

20

timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall not produce any information in its

21

possession or control that is subject to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a

22

determination by the court. Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the

23

burden and expense of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material.

24

10.

25

UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed Protected

26

Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this Stipulated Protective

27

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

28

unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the
10
Case No. 2:16-cv-00603-TLN-EF

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

Protected Material, (c) inform the person or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were

2

made of all the terms of this Order, and (d) request such person or persons to execute the

3

“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

4

11.

INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE PROTECTED

5

MATERIAL

6

When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain inadvertently

7

produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection, the obligations of the

8

Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This

9

provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure may be established in an e-discovery

10

order that provides for production without prior privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of

11

Evidence 502(d) and (e), insofar as the parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a

12

communication or information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work product

13

protection, the parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order

14

submitted to the court.

15

12.

16
17
18

MISCELLANEOUS
12.1

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

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

19

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

20

information or item on any ground not addressed in this Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly,

21

no Party waives any right to object on any ground to use in evidence of any of the material

22

covered by this Protective Order.

23

12.3

Filing Protected Material. Without written permission from the Designating Party

24

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

25

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

26

Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 141. Protected Material may only be filed

27

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

28

issue. Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 141, a sealing order will issue only upon a showing made that
11
Case No. 2:16-cv-00603-TLN-EF

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1

the Protected Material at issue is entitled to protection under the law. If the filing party is not the

2

Designating Party, the filing party may reference this Protective Order as the grounds for its

3

request to seal, and the Designating Party must then support the request with the requisite

4

showing within 3 court days. If a Receiving Party's request to file Protected Material under seal

5

pursuant to Civil Local Rule 141(b) is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the

6

information in the public record unless otherwise instructed by the court.

7

13.

8
9

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

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

10

material. As used in this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts,

11

compilations, summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected

12

Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving Party must

13

submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same person or entity, to the

14
