STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
1
1.
2
Disclosure and discovery activity in this action are likely to involve production
3
of confidential, proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public
4
disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be
5
warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the court to enter the
6
following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does not
7
confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection
8
it affords from public disclosure and use extends only to the limited information or items that
9
are entitled to confidential treatment under the applicable legal principles. The parties further
10
acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this Stipulated Protective Order does
11
not entitle them to file confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets forth
12
the procedures that must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a party
13
seeks permission from the court to file material under seal.

2.
1
Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or compilations of Protected
2
Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or presentations by Parties or their Counsel
3
that might reveal Protected Material. However, the protections conferred by this Stipulation
4
and Order do not cover the following information: (a) any information that is in the public
5
domain at the time of disclosure to a Receiving Party or becomes part of the public domain
6
after its disclosure to a Receiving Party as a result of publication not involving a violation of
7
this Order, including becoming part of the public record through trial or otherwise; and (b)
8
any information known to the Receiving Party prior to the disclosure or obtained by the
9
Receiving Party after the disclosure from a source who obtained the information lawfully
10
and under no obligation of confidentiality to the Designating Party. Any use of Protected
11
Material at trial shall be governed by a separate agreement or order.

13
Even after final disposition of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations
14
imposed by this Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in
15
writing or a court order otherwise directs. Final disposition shall be deemed to be the later of
16
(1) dismissal of all claims and defenses in this action, with or without prejudice; and (2) final
17
judgment herein after the completion and exhaustion of all appeals, rehearings, remands,
18
trials, or reviews of this action, including the time limits for filing any motions or
19
applications for extension of time pursuant to applicable law.

DURATION
DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1
Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for
22
Protection. Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under
23
this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies
24
under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for protection only
25
those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written communications that qualify – so
26
that other portions of the material, documents, items, or communications for which
27
protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
(NO. 3:14-CV-01721-HSG)
3.
1
Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations
2
that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper purpose (e.g.,
3
to unnecessarily encumber or retard the case development process or to impose unnecessary
4
expenses and burdens on other parties) expose the Designating Party to sanctions.
5
If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it
6
designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must promptly
7
notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation.
8
5.2
Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise
9
provided in this Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise
10
stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection under
11
this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or produced.
12
13
Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
(a)
for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or
14
electronic documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial
15
proceedings), that the Producing Party affix the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” to each page that
16
contains protected material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies
17
for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g.,
18
by making appropriate markings in the margins).
19
A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents or materials available for
20
inspection need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has
21
indicated which material it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and
22
before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be deemed
23
“CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants copied
24
and produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents, or portions thereof,
25
qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing the specified documents, the
26
Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL” legend to each page that contains
27
Protected Material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for

protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by
2
making appropriate markings in the margins).
3
(b)
for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or trial
4
proceedings, that the Designating Party identify on the record, before the close of the
5
deposition, hearing, or other proceeding, all protected testimony.
6
(c)
for information produced in some form other than documentary
7
and for any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the
8
exterior of the container or containers in which the information or item is stored the legend
9
“CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information or item warrant
10
protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected
11
portion(s).
12
5.3
Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an
13
inadvertent failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone,
14
waive the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material.
15
Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts to
16
assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this Order.
17
18
6.
CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1
Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a
19
designation of confidentiality at any time. Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating
20
Party’s confidentiality designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable, substantial unfairness,
21
unnecessary economic burdens, or a significant disruption or delay of the litigation, a Party
22
does not waive its right to challenge a confidentiality designation by electing not to mount a
23
challenge promptly after the original designation is disclosed.
24
6.2
Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute
25
resolution process by providing written notice of each designation it is challenging and
26
describing the basis for each challenge. To avoid ambiguity as to whether a challenge has
27
been made, the written notice must recite that the challenge to confidentiality is being made
28
in accordance with this specific paragraph of the Protective Order. The parties shall attempt

1
to resolve each challenge in good faith and must begin the process by conferring directly (in
2
voice to voice dialogue; other forms of communication are not sufficient) within 14 days of
3
the date of service of notice. In conferring, the Challenging Party must explain the basis for
4
its belief that the confidentiality designation was not proper and must give the Designating
5
Party an opportunity to review the designated material, to reconsider the circumstances, and,
6
if no change in designation is offered, to explain the basis for the chosen designation. A
7
Challenging Party may proceed to the next stage of the challenge process only if it has
8
engaged in this meet and confer process first or establishes that the Designating Party is
9
unwilling to participate in the meet and confer process in a timely manner.
10
6.3
Judicial Intervention. If the Parties cannot resolve a challenge
11
without court intervention, the Designating Party shall file and serve a motion to retain
12
confidentiality under Civil Local Rule 7 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5, if
13
applicable) within 21 days of the initial notice of challenge or within 14 days of the parties
14
agreeing that the meet and confer process will not resolve their dispute, whichever is earlier.
15
Each such motion must be accompanied by a competent declaration affirming that the
16
movant has complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed in the preceding
17
paragraph. Failure by the Designating Party to make such a motion including the required
18
declaration within 21 days (or 14 days, if applicable) shall automatically waive the
19
confidentiality designation for each challenged designation. In addition, the Challenging
20
Party may file a motion challenging a confidentiality designation at any time if there is good
21
cause for doing so, including a challenge to the designation of a deposition transcript or any
22
portions thereof. Any motion brought pursuant to this provision must be accompanied by a
23
competent declaration affirming that the movant has complied with the meet and confer
24
requirements imposed by the preceding paragraph.
25
The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the
26
Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose (e.g., to
27
harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the
28
Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived the confidentiality

ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1
Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material
6
that is disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this case
7
only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this litigation. Such Protected
8
Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the conditions
9
described in this Order. When the litigation has been terminated, a Receiving Party must
10
comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL DISPOSITION).
11
Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a
12
location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons authorized
13
under this Order.
14
7.2
Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless
15
otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a Receiving
16
Party may disclose any information or item designated “CONFIDENTIAL” only to:
17
(a)
the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this
18
action, as well as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably
19
necessary to disclose the information for this litigation and who have signed the
20
“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A;

(b)
the officers, directors, and employees (including House

PRODUCED IN OTHER LITIGATION
15
If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation
16
that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this action as
17
“CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:
18
19
20
(a)
promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such
notification shall include a copy of the subpoena or court order;
(b)
promptly notify in writing the party who caused the

the subpoena or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include a
23
copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and
24
25
(c)
cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought
to be pursued by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected.
26
If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with

A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE
PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION
7
(a)
The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced
8
by a Non-Party in this action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information
9
produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the remedies and
10
relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be construed as
11
prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.
12
(b)
In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request,
13
to produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is subject
14
to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential information,
15
then the Party shall:
16
(1)
promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the
17
Non-Party that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality
18
agreement with a Non-Party;
19
(2)
promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the
20
Stipulated Protective Order in this litigation, the relevant discovery request(s), and a
21
reasonably specific description of the information requested; and

(3)
make the information requested available for inspection
by the Non-Party.
(c)
If the Non-Party fails to object or seek a protective order from
25
this court within 14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the
26
Receiving Party may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the

discovery request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall

5
If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed
6
Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this Stipulated
7
Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in writing the Designating
8
Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve all unauthorized
9
copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or persons to whom unauthorized

UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR
OTHERWISE PROTECTED MATERIAL
15
When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain
16
inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection, the
17
obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure
18
26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure may be established
19
in an e-discovery order that provides for production without prior privilege review. Pursuant
20
to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and (e), insofar as the parties reach an agreement on the
21
effect of disclosure of a communication or information covered by the attorney-client
22
privilege or work product protection, the parties may incorporate their agreement in the
23
stipulated protective order submitted to the court.

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 Order no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
(NO. 3:14-CV-01721-HSG)
10.
1
disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this
2
Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any ground to
3
use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order.
4
12.3
Filing Protected Material. Without written permission from the
5
Designating Party or a court order secured after appropriate notice to all interested persons, a
6
Party may not file in the public record in this action any Protected Material. A Party that
7
seeks to file under seal any Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5.
8
Protected Material may only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the
9
sealing of the specific Protected Material at issue. Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5, a
10
sealing order will issue only upon a request establishing that the Protected Material at issue
11
is privileged, protectable as a trade secret, or otherwise entitled to protection under the law.
12
If a Receiving Party's request to file Protected Material under seal pursuant to Civil Local
13
Rule 79-5(d) is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the
14
public record pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(e) unless otherwise instructed by the court.
15
13.
16
Within 60 days after the final disposition of this action, as defined in paragraph
17
4, each Receiving Party must return all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy
18
such material. As used in this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies,
19
abstracts, compilations, summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the
20
Protected Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving
21
