The parties, Plaintiff Alma Pacle and Defendant JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., through
their attorneys of record, hereby stipulate and request that the Court order as follows:
1.

Any party involved in this litigation, or counsel for such party, may designate as

4

“CONFIDENTIAL” any document, testimony, information or material disclosed, or to be

5

disclosed, through formal or informal discovery or otherwise in the course of this litigation in the

6

manner hereinafter set forth. Counsel are permitted to designate as “CONFIDENTIAL” only

7

those documents as to which counsel entertains a good faith belief that such document is entitled

8

to confidentiality. Such designation shall, without more, subject the information produced or

9

provided under said designation to the provisions of this Protective Order. The parties will also

10

treat documents pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Protective Order pending its

11

entry by the Court.

12

2.

Any writing, document, or other information produced by any party or person in

13

this litigation may be designated as “CONFIDENTIAL” by stamping the word

14

“CONFIDENTIAL” on the face of the writing, document or other information.

15

3.

Any party, or counsel for such party, may designate deposition testimony or any

16

portion of deposition testimony as “CONFIDENTIAL” by advising the reporter and counsel of

17

such designation during the course of the deposition or within 45 days of receipt of the deposition

18

transcript. Portions of any deposition designated “CONFIDENTIAL” are to be marked as such

19

by the reporter and are also to bear substantially the following designation: “Portions of this

20

deposition were taken subject to the Protective Order of the Court. These portions shall remain

21

confidential and shall be treated according to the requirements of the Court’s Order.” Whenever

22

any writing designated as “CONFIDENTIAL” is identified as an exhibit in connection with

23

testimony given in this litigation, it shall be so marked and it shall be subject to all of the

24

requirements of the Court’s order. Except as expressly provided in this paragraph, this

25

Stipulation and Order shall not supersede, alter, affect or modify in any way whatsoever the

26

provisions of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 30.

27
28

4.

Any party to this litigation, or counsel for such party, may designate as

“CONFIDENTIAL” its responses to interrogatories or to requests for admission by labeling each

2

response “CONFIDENTIAL.”
5.

“CONFIDENTIAL” material includes all material designated “CONFIDENTIAL”

3

pursuant to the terms of this Order, as well as summaries and compilations derived from such

4

materials, including but not limited to charts, tables, graphs and models.

5

6.

Without written permission from the designating party or a court order secured

6

after appropriate notice to all interested persons, a party may not file in the public record in this

7

action any material that has been designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” A party that seeks to file

8

under seal any such material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. “CONFIDENTIAL”

9

material may only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the

10

specific material at issue. Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5, a sealing order will issue only upon

11

a request establishing that the material at issue is privileged, protectable as a trade secret, or

12

otherwise entitled to protection under the law. If a receiving party’s request to file

13

“CONFIDENTIAL” material under seal pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(d) is denied by the

14

court, then the receiving party may file the information in the public record pursuant to Civil

15

Local Rule 79-5(e) unless otherwise instructed by the court.

16

7.

Except upon prior written consent of the party or counsel for the party asserting

17

“CONFIDENTIAL” treatment, or upon further order of this court, documents, testimony,

18

information or material designated as “CONFIDENTIAL” shall be held in strictest confidence,

19

shall be kept securely, and shall be used solely for the purpose of prosecution or defense of this

20

litigation and not for any business purpose whatsoever.

21
22
23

8.

Access to “CONFIDENTIAL” documents, testimony, information or materials, as

well as written or oral summaries or accounts thereof, shall be limited to:
(a)

Counsel for the respective parties (including in-house counsel and co-

24

counsel) and employees of said counsel who are assisting in the

25

prosecution or defense of this litigation;

26

(b)

Experts and consultants (including independent experts and consultants and

27

employees or clerical assistants of said experts) who are employed,

28

retained or otherwise consulted by counsel or a party for the purpose of

8

or material than are reasonably necessary to conduct this litigation.

9

10.

Each person other than counsel and their staff or parties to whom a party discloses

10

material marked “CONFIDENTIAL” by the opposing party shall be shown a copy of this

11

Stipulation and Protective Order prior to such disclosure and shall acknowledge in writing his or

12

her consent to be bound by its terms. The party disclosing any “CONFIDENTIAL” material

13

pursuant to this paragraph shall be required to maintain such written acknowledgments, but shall

14

not be required to disclose the identities of persons having reviewed the “CONFIDENTIAL”

15

material.

16

11.

If any party, or such party’s counsel, objects to the designation of any document,

17

testimony, information or material as “CONFIDENTIAL” the parties shall meet and confer in an

18

effort to resolve any such dispute. If the parties are unable to resolve such dispute, the party

19

seeking to declare information “CONFIDENTIAL” may bring a motion to have the contested

20

material declared “CONFIDENTIAL.” Unless and until an order is entered to the contrary, the

21

documents, testimony, information or material shall be given the “CONFIDENTIAL” treatment

22

provided for in this Protective Order.

23

12.

If any party, or such party’s counsel, redacts any document, testimony, information

24

or material that he or she has designated as “CONFIDENTIAL,” he or she shall provide a

25

privilege log stating the reason for redaction within 10 days of his or her production of the

26

document, testimony, information or material.

27
28

13.

Nothing in this Stipulation and Protective Order shall be construed as prohibiting a

party, or its counsel, from using or disclosing material it has designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.”

4

documents are not originals and are subject to privilege rights of the party to whom the

5

confidential information was produced) unless otherwise ordered by the court for good cause

6

shown.

7

15.

All persons who are granted access to “CONFIDENTIAL” documents, including

8

any party to this action, their attorneys, or others who acknowledge their consent to be bound by

this protective order but fail to comply with its provisions may be held in contempt for violation

10

of this Court’s order.
