ESI STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED]
ORDER

Case No. 16-cv-07244-EMC

1

The procedures and protocols outlined herein govern the production of electronically stored

2

information (“ESI”) and paper documents by the Parties during the pendency of this litigation. The

3

production formats for any other materials will be addressed by the parties after a meet and confer

4

regarding the specific item or category of items.

5

A.

6

Duty of Cooperation
The parties acknowledge their duty to work together cooperatively throughout the discovery

7

process.

8

B.

9

Definitions
1.

“Document” is defined to be synonymous in meaning and equal in scope to the usage of

10

this term in Rules 26 and 34 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. The term “Document” shall

11

include Hard-Copy Documents, Electronic Documents, and ESI as defined herein.

12

2.

“Electronic Document or Data” means Documents or Data existing in electronic form

13

at the time of collection, including but not limited to: e-mail or other means of electronic

14

communications, word processing files (e.g., Microsoft Word), computer presentations (e.g.,

15

PowerPoint slides), spreadsheets (e.g., Excel), and image files (e.g., PDF).

16
17
18
19
20

3.

“Electronically stored information” or “ESI,” as used herein has the same meaning as

in Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 26 and 34.
4.

“Hard-Copy Document” means Documents existing in paper form at the time of

collection.
5.

“Native Format” means and refers to the format of ESI in which it was generated

21

and/or as used by the producing party in the usual course of its business and in its regularly conducted

22

activities. For example, the native format of an Excel workbook is a .xls or .xslx file.

23

6.

“Metadata” means: (i) information embedded in or associated with a native file that is

24

not ordinarily viewable or printable from the application that generated, edited, or modified such native

25

file which describes the characteristics, origins, usage, and/or validity of the electronic file; and (ii)

26

information generated automatically by the operation of a computer or other information technology

27

system when a native file is created, modified, transmitted, deleted, or otherwise manipulated by a user

28

of such system.
ESI STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED]
ORDER

Case No. 16-cv-07244-EMC

1

7.

“Field Data” means (i) information, such as Bates numbers, created during the course of

2

processing documents or ESI for production; and (ii) information collected during the course of

3

collecting documents or ESI, such as the name of the media device on which it was stored, or the

4

custodian or non-custodial data source from which it was collected.

5

7
8
9

8.

“Media” means an object or device, real or virtual, including but not limited to a disc,

tape, computer, or other device on which data is or was stored.
9.

“Optical Character Recognition” or “OCR” means the process of recognizing, and

creating a file containing, visible text within an image.
10.

“Hash Value” is a unique numerical identifier that can be assigned to a file, a group of

10

files, or a portion of a file, based on a standard mathematical algorithm applied to the characteristics of

11

the data set. The most commonly used algorithms, known as MD5 and SHA, will generate numerical

12

values so distinctive that the chance that any two data sets will have the same Hash Value, no matter

13

how similar they appear, is less than one in one billion. “Hashing” is used to guarantee the authenticity

14

of an original data set and can be used as a digital equivalent of the Bates stamp used in Hard-Copy

15

Document productions.

16
17
18

11.

“Confidentiality Designation” means the legend affixed to Protected Documents as

defined by, and subject to, the terms of any protective order entered in this litigation.
12.

“Searchable Text” means the native text extracted from an Electronic Document and

19

any Optical Character Recognition text (“OCR text”) generated from a Hard-Copy Document or

20

electronic image.

21

13.

“Load files” means electronic files provided with a production set of documents and

22

images used to load that production set into a receiving party’s document review platform, and

23

correlate its data within that platform.

24
25
26
27
28

14.

“And” and “or” shall be construed conjunctively or disjunctively as necessary to make

their use inclusive rather than exclusive, e.g., “and” shall be construed to mean “and/or.”
15.

“Include” and “Including” shall be construed to mean “include but not be limited to”

and “including, but not limited to.”
16.

Reference to the singular shall also be deemed to refer to the plural, and vice-versa.

C.

2

Preservation
1.

The Parties represent that they have issued litigation hold notices to those custodians

3

with data, and persons or entities responsible for maintenance of non-custodial data, which possibly

4

contain discoverable information.

5
6

2.

All backup or archive media which may contain discoverable ESI not otherwise

available have been pulled from rotation and are being preserved.

7

3.

All processes and procedures which would result in the elimination, or transfer to a less

8

accessible medium, of any unpreserved data and associated metadata which would otherwise be

9

required to be preserved or produced have been suspended.

10

4.

Within twenty-one (21) days from entry of this Order, Defendant will identify all ESI

11

preservation systems, including back-up, archive and disaster recovery systems, and all associated

12

policies, processes and procedures, including those related to the deletion, removal or transfer of data

13

from a location.

14

D.

15
16
17

Document and Data Sources
1.

Within twenty-one (21) days from entry of this Order, Defendant shall identify and

describe all non-custodial data sources which possibly contain discoverable information.
2.

Sources of non-custodial documents and sources include databases, file servers, SANs,

18

NASs, email servers, web servers, online data storage such as Dropbox, document management

19

systems (DMS), record management systems (RMS), content management systems (CMS),

20

departmental/project/collaborative/shared storage spaces, e-rooms, structured data stores, application

21

data, source code repositories, social media and hard-copy document repositories.

28

5.

Within thirty (30) days from Defendant’s identification of custodial and non-custodial

data sources, Plaintiffs may identify additional custodial and non-custodial data sources for inclusion
ESI STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED]
ORDER

4

Case No. 16-cv-07244-EMC

1

under this order. Plaintiffs reserve the right to request, at any time prior to the close of discovery,

2

inclusion of additional custodians or non-custodial data sources whose relevance was discovered via

3

documents or data produced, or testimony given, after the initial designations by Defendant and

4

Plaintiffs, or for other good cause shown. If the Defendant object to the inclusion of such non-custodial

5

or custodial sources, the Parties will meet and confer to resolve the matter; if the Parties cannot reach

6

resolution, the Court or its designee will determine the matter.

7

6.

Documents and ESI from custodial and non-custodial data sources that may contain

8

information relevant to this litigation will be preserved pending identification of data to be produced

9

into this litigation.

10

7.

Defendant has a continuing obligation to identify any custodial and non-custodial data

11

sources that may contain information relevant to this litigation, and preserve them.

12

E.

Identification of Responsive ESI

13

The parties will meet and confer on the methodology (e.g., keyword/Boolean search,

14

technology-assisted review (TAR) such as concept search, predictive coding, etc.) and implementation

15

(e.g., search terms, etc.) to be used to identify and search ESI. Any such agreed-upon methodology

16

does not relieve the parties of their continuing obligation to identify data sources and produce discrete

17

document collections that contain information relevant to this litigation. A party may not withhold or

18

decline to review a document known to be relevant or responsive to a discovery request on the basis

19

that it was not discovered or identified through the agreed-upon search methodology.

20

F.

Discrete Document Collections.

21

Identified discrete document collections, such as communications with regulatory agencies or

22

government entities shall be produced in their entirety without regard to whether or not each document

23

in the collection has been identified as possibly responsive, or deemed to be or classified as, responsive,

24

or, if search terms are used, contains a search term, except that privileged documents in such a

25

collection may be withheld and listed in a privilege log as specified elsewhere in this order.

26

G.

Other Filtering or Culling Technologies.

27

Prior to use by either Party, the Parties must meet and confer to disclose and discuss any other

28

proposed use of technologies not specified herein to reduce the number of documents to be reviewed or
ESI STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED]
ORDER

5

Case No. 16-cv-07244-EMC

1

produced (i.e., file type culling, e-mail thread suppression, etc.). Use of these technologies to reduce

2

the reviewable collection or production, other than as described, requires the consent of either Party and

3

will be subject to a separate mutually agreeable protocol for the use of such technologies to be

4

negotiated by the Parties.

5

H.

6

Production Format and Processing Specifications
1.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties will produce ESI in TIFF format with

7

extracted searchable text and applicable metadata as specified in Attachment A. with the exception of

8

the following file types that, to the extent produced, shall be produced in their native file format with an

9

accompanying placeholder image:

10

- Spreadsheets;

11

- Audio files;

12

- Photos (jpg and jpeg); and

13

- Video files.

14

Redacted ESI will be produced as TIFFs and OCR’ed searchable text. Hard-copy documents

15

will be scanned and produced as TIFFs, with applicable metadata as set out in Attachment A, and

16

OCR’ed searchable text.

17

2.

Embedded Objects. OLE embedded objects (embedded MS Office files, etc.) shall be

18

extracted as separate files and treated as an attachment to the parent document. Images embedded in

19

emails shall not be extracted and produced separately.

20

3.

Load Files. Productions will include image load files in Opticon or IPRO format as well

21

as Concordance format data (.dat) files with the metadata fields identified in Attachment A for all

22

5.

Text Files. A single text file shall be provided for each document. The text file name

2

shall be the same as the Bates number of the first page of the document with the document extension

3

“.txt” suffixed. Files names shall not have any special characters or embedded spaces. Electronic text

4

must be extracted directly from the native electronic file unless the document requires redaction, is an

5

image file, or is any other native electronic file that does not contain text to extract (e.g., non-searchable

6

PDFs). In these instances, and in the case of imaged hard-copy documents, a text file shall be created

7

using OCR and shall be produced in lieu of extracted text. Extracted text shall be provided in UTF-

8

16LE or UTF-8 with Byte Order Mark format text.

9

revisions, tracked changes, speaker’s notes and text from documents with comments or tracked

10

Extracted text shall include all comments,

changes, and hidden worksheets, slides, columns and rows.

11

6.

OCR. OCR should be sufficient to allow searching in any standard platform.

12

7.

Text Extracted from Emails.

Text extracted from emails shall include all header

13

information that would be visible if the email was viewed in Outlook including: (1) the individuals to

14

whom the communication was directed (“To”), (2) the author of the email communication (“From”),

15

(3) who was copied and blind copied on such email (“CC” and “BCC”), (4) the subject line of the email

16

(“RE” or “Subject”), (5) the date and time of the email, and (6) the names of any attachments.

17

8.

TIFFs. All TIFFs produced by any party in this matter will be single page Group IV

18

TIFF format, 300 dpi quality or better. Image file names will be identical to the corresponding bates

19

numbered images, with a “.tif” file extension. All images of redacted documents which contain

20

comments, deletions and revision marks (including the identity of the person making the deletion or

21

revision and the date and time thereof), speaker notes, or other user-entered data that the source

22

application can display to the user will be processed such that all that data is visible in the image. The

23

producing party will brand all TIFF images in the lower right-hand corner with its corresponding bates

24

number, using a consistent font type and size. The Bates number must not obscure any part of the

25

underlying image.

26

underlying image, the Bates number should be placed as near to that position as possible while

27

preserving the underlying image.

If the placement in the lower right-hand corner will result in obscuring the

Case No. 16-cv-07244-EMC

1

9.

TIFFs of Redacted ESI. TIFFs of redacted ESI shall convey the same information and

2

image as the original document, including all non-redacted elements and formatting which are visible in

3

any view of the document in its native application. and each redacted area must bear a label containing

4

the reason for the redaction.

5

10.

Explanation of Inability to Produce Metadata.

If the producing party is unable to

6

produce metadata for a particular field or ESI document, it will provide an explanation of that inability

7

with its document production. The Parties shall then meet and confer to attempt to resolve the

8

problems.

9

11.

Native File Image Placeholders.

A Bates-stamped placeholder TIFF, bearing the

10

legend “This document has been produced in native format” shall be provided for ESI produced in

11

native format; these placeholders will be Bates numbered in the same way as any other TIFF, and the

12

Bates number of that single page shall be used as the BegBates and EndBates of the associated

13

document.

14

12.

Audio Visual Files. Audio and video files are to be produced in the native file format in

15

which they were maintained in the ordinary course of business. Audio files in non-standard formats

16

should be produced in MP3 format.

17

13.

Databases, Structured, Aggregated or Application Data. The Parties will meet and

18

confer to address the production and production format of any responsive data contained in a database

19

or other structured or aggregated data source or otherwise maintained by an application. Prior to any

20

such meet and confer, Defendant will provide sufficient information to enable the Plaintiffs to evaluate

21

the best method and format of production, including such information as the database or data store

22

name, business purpose, database or data source owner, database schema, tables, column/field

23

definitions, standard reports, export capabilities, and administrator, programmer and user manuals. If

24

the parties cannot reach agreement, the matter will be decided by the Court or its designee.

25

14.

Lost, Destroyed or Irretrievable ESI. If a Party learns that responsive ESI that once

26

existed was lost, destroyed, or is no longer retrievable as a result of acts or circumstances not occurring

27

in the ordinary course of business, the Party shall comply with its obligations under the Federal Rules

28

of Civil Procedure to explain where and when the responsive ESI was last retrievable in its original
ESI STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED]
ORDER

8

Case No. 16-cv-07244-EMC

1

format and to disclose the circumstances surrounding the change in status of that responsive ESI,

2

whether that information is available from other sources, and whether any backup or copy of such

3

original responsive ESI exists. Nothing in this paragraph is intended to expand or limit the obligations

4

under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

5

15.

Scanning of Hard-Copy Documents. In scanning paper documents, documents are to be

6

produced as they are kept in the ordinary course of business. For documents found in folders or other

7

containers with labels, tabs, or other identifying information, such labels and tabs shall be scanned

8

where practicable. Pages with Post-It notes shall be scanned both with and without the Post-it, with the

9

image of the page with the Post-it preceding the image of the page without the Post-It. The Parties will

10

use best efforts to unitize documents (i.e., distinct documents should not be merged into a single record,

11

and a single document should not be split into multiple records), and maintain document relationships,

12

i.e., attachment status. Original document orientation (i.e., portrait v. landscape) should be maintained.

13

16.

Proprietary Software. To the extent that relevant ESI cannot be rendered or reviewed

14

without the use of proprietary software, the parties shall meet and confer to minimize any expense or

15

burden associated with the production of such documents in an acceptable format, including issues as

16

may arise with respect to obtaining access to any such software and operating manuals.

17

17.

Redactions. Documents containing redactions (e.g., pursuant to attorney-client privilege)

18

will be produced in TIFF image format. OCR reflecting redactions will be provided in text files. When

19

a document is redacted or withheld for attorney-client privilege or work product, all metadata on a

20

family level is excluded from the metadata file (.DAT). Documents with embedded objects that are

21

redacted or withheld from production will be produced in TIFF image format.

22

18.

De-duplication. A producing party may de-duplicate a production vertically (i.e., within

23

individual custodians) or horizontally (i.e., across different custodians) provided that horizontal de-

24

duplication will necessitate the inclusion of information for all other custodians for which the

25

documents have been de-duplicated in an ”Other Custodians” metadata field produced in the delimited

26

text file containing the other metadata fields as specified herein.

27
28

19.

Color. Paper documents or redacted ESI that contain color necessary to decipher the

meaning, context, or content of the document or ESI shall be produced as single-page, 300 DPI JPG
ESI STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED]
ORDER

9

Case No. 16-cv-07244-EMC

1

images with JPG compression and a high quality setting as to not degrade the original image.

2

20.

Encrypted or Password-Protected ESI. For any ESI that exists in encrypted format or is

3

password-protected, the producing party will provide the receiving party a means to gain access to

4

those native files (for example, by supplying passwords.)

5

21.

Parent-Child Relationships.

Parent-child relationships (the association between an

6

attachment and its parent document or between embedded documents and their parent) shall be

7

preserved.

8

22.

Family Groups. A document and all other documents in its attachment range, emails

9

with attachments, and files with extracted embedded OLE documents all constitute family groups. If

10

any member of a family group is produced, all members of that group must also be produced or else

11

logged as privileged, and no such member shall be withheld from production as a duplicate.

12

23.

Production Media. The producing party will use SFTP when appropriate for its ESI

13

production, and will cooperate in good faith to use the highest-capacity available media to minimize

14

associated overhead. Any replacement Production Media will cross-reference the original Production

15

Media, clearly identify that it is a replacement, and cross-reference the Bates Number range that is

16

being replaced.

17

24.

Write Protection and Preservation.

All computer media that is capable of write

18

protection should be write-protected before production.

19

I.

Privilege Log.

20

Within a reasonable time after each production, but no more than forty-five (45) days after each

21

production, Defendant shall provide Plaintiffs with a log of the documents withheld or redacted for

22

privilege from that production with a log populated exclusively with the following extracted metadata

23

fields: Custodian(s), From, To, CC, BCC, Subject, File Name, File Path, Date Created, Date Last

24

Modified, Basis of Withholding/Redaction. If there is more than one redaction, each redaction shall be

25

addressed in the log with sufficient information to allow Plaintiffs to understand the basis for the

26

redactions. Forwarded emails withheld from disclosure or redacted shall be separately logged. In

27

addition to providing the requested privilege log withint a reasonablle time after Plaintiffs’ request,

28

Defendant shall provide a list of in-house and outside attorneys.
