DURATION

7

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

8

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

9

order otherwise directs. Final disposition shall be deemed to be the later of dismissal of all claims

10

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

11

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

12

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

13

5.

14

DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1

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

15

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

16

care to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies under the appropriate standards.

17

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

18

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

19

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

20

the ambit of this Order.

21

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

22

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

23

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

24

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

25

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

26

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

27

all other Parties that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation.

5.2

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

2

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

3

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

4

designated before the material is disclosed or produced.

5

Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

6

(a)

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

7

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

8

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

9

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

10

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

11

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

12

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

13

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

14

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

15

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

16

must determine which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then,

17

before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL”

18

legend to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion or portions of the material on

19

a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s)

20

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

21

(b)

After the

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

22

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

23

proceeding, all protected testimony.

24

(c)

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

25

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

26

container or containers in which the information or item is stored the legend “CONFIDENTIAL.” If

27

only a portion or portions of the information or item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the

28

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

CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1

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

8

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

9

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

10

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

11

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

12

designation is disclosed.

13

6.2

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

14

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

15

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

16

must recite that the challenge to confidentiality is being made in accordance with this specific

17

paragraph of the Protective Order. The Parties shall attempt to resolve each challenge in good faith

18

and must begin the process by conferring directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other forms of

19

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

20

Challenging Party must explain the basis for its belief that the confidentiality designation was not

21

proper and must give the Designating Party an opportunity to review the designated material, to

22

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

23

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

24

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

25

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

26

6.3

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

27

intervention and they have complied with the scheduling order (Doc. 10), the Designating Party shall

28

file and serve a motion to retain confidentiality under Local Rule 251 within 21 days of the initial

not resolve their dispute, whichever is earlier.

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

4

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

5

motion including the required declaration within 21 days (or 14 days, if applicable) shall

6

automatically waive the confidentiality designation for each challenged designation. In addition, the

7

Challenging Party may file a motion challenging a confidentiality designation at any time if there is

8

good cause for doing so, including a challenge to the designation of a deposition transcript or any

9

portions thereof.

Each such motion must be accompanied by a

Any motion brought pursuant to this provision must be accompanied by a

10

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

11

requirements imposed by the preceding paragraph.

12

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

13

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

14

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

15

sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived the confidentiality designation by failing to file

16

a motion to retain confidentiality as described above, all Parties shall continue to afford the material

17

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

until the court rules on the challenge.

ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1

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

21

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

22

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

23

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

24

the litigation has been terminated, a Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of Section 13

If the Non-Party fails to object or seek a protective order from this court

5

within 14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may

6

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

7

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

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

14

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

15

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

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

24

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

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.

4

12.2

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

5

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

6

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

7

Party waives any right to object on any ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by

8

this Protective Order.

9

12.3

Filing Protected Material. Without written permission from the Designating

10

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

11

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

12

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

13

seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the specific Protected Material at issue. A

14

sealing order will issue only upon a request establishing that the Protected Material at issue is

15

privileged, protectable as a trade secret, or otherwise entitled to protection under the law. If a

16

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

17

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

court.

Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that (1) identifies (by category, where appropriate) all the

27

Protected Material that was returned or destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not
