DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL 5.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. 26 Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under this 27 Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies under the 28 appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for protection only those parts of 02260-00001 148564.01 -4STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER Case4:11-cv-00527-CW Document98 Filed01/11/12 Page5 of 14 1 material, documents, items, or oral or written communications that qualify – so that other portions 2 of the material, documents, items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are 3 not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order. 4 Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations that are 5 shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper purpose (e.g., to 6 unnecessarily encumber or retard the case development process or to impose unnecessary 7 expenses and burdens on other parties) expose the Designating Party to sanctions. 8 Parties that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation. 11 5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. 12 LAW OFFICES 10 LLP for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must promptly notify all other K IRTLAND & P ACKARD 9 If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it designated Except as otherwise provided in this Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) 13 below), or as otherwise stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for 14 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 Party 19 affix the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” to each page that contains protected material. If only a 20 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 material 25 it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before the designation, all of the 26 material made available for inspection shall be deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting 27 Party has identified the documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must 28 determine which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, 02260-00001 148564.01 -5STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER Case4:11-cv-00527-CW Document98 Filed01/11/12 Page6 of 14 1 before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL” 2 legend to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion or portions of the material 3 on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected 4 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. tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the exterior of the container 10 or containers in which the information or item is stored the legend “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a 11 portion or portions of the information or item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the 12 extent practicable, shall identify the protected portion(s).

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 treated 17 in accordance with the provisions of this Order. 18 19 6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS 6.1 Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a 20 designation of confidentiality at any time. Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating Party’s 21 confidentiality designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable, substantial unfairness, unnecessary 22 economic burdens, or a significant disruption or delay of the litigation, a Party does not waive its 23 right to challenge a confidentiality designation by electing not to mount a challenge promptly after 24 the original designation is disclosed. 25 6.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute 26 resolution process by providing written notice of each designation it is challenging and describing 27 the basis for each challenge. To avoid ambiguity as to whether a challenge has been made, the 28 written notice must recite that the challenge to confidentiality is being made in accordance with 02260-00001 148564.01 -6STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER Case4:11-cv-00527-CW Document98 Filed01/11/12 Page7 of 14 1 this specific paragraph of the Protective Order. The parties shall attempt to resolve each challenge 2 in 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, to 7 explain the basis for the chosen designation. A Challenging Party may proceed to the next stage of 8 the challenge process only if it has engaged in this meet and confer process first 9 or establishes that the Designating Party is unwilling to participate in the meet and confer process 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 7 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5, if applicable) within 21 days of 14 the initial notice of challenge or within 14 days of the parties agreeing that the meet and confer 15 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 any 21 time if there is good cause for doing so, including a challenge to the designation of a deposition 22 transcript or any portions thereof. Any motion brought pursuant to this provision must be 23 accompanied by a competent declaration affirming that the movant has complied with the meet 24 and confer requirements imposed by the preceding paragraph. LAW OFFICES LLP in a timely manner. K IRTLAND & P ACKARD 10 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 harass 27 or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Challenging Party 28 to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived the confidentiality designation by failing to 02260-00001 148564.01 -7STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER Case4:11-cv-00527-CW Document98 Filed01/11/12 Page8 of 14 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. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 5 7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is 6 disclosed 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 11 12 location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons authorized under 13 this Order.

A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE 4 PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION 5 (a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a Non-Party 6 in this action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information produced by Non-Parties 7 in connection with this litigation is protected by the remedies and relief provided by this Order. 8 Nothing in these provisions should be construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking 9 additional protections. 11 Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is subject to an agreement 12 with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential information, then the Party shall: LAW OFFICES LLP (b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to produce a K IRTLAND & P ACKARD 10 13 1. promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party that 14 some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement with a 15 Non-Party; 16 2. promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated Protective 17 Order in this litigation, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably specific description of 18 the information requested; and 19 20 3. make the information requested available for inspection by the Non-Party. 21 (c) If the Non-Party fails to object or seek a protective order from this court within 22 14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may produce 23 the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery request.
