PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS
Disclosure and discovery activity in this action are likely to involve production of
confidential, proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public
disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be warranted.
Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the court to enter the following Stipulated
Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does not confer blanket protections on
all disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection it affords from public disclosure
and use extends only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment
under the applicable legal principles. The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in
Section 12.3, below, that this Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential
information under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 and General Order 62 set forth the procedures that
must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the
court to file material under seal.

However, the protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order do not cover the following
2
information: (a) any information that is in the public domain at the time of disclosure to a

5
public record through trial or otherwise; and (b) any information known to the Receiving Party
6
prior to the disclosure or obtained by the Receiving Party after the disclosure from a source who

9
4.
DURATION
10
Even after final disposition of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations imposed by
11
this Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in writing or a court

13
claims and defenses in this action, with or without prejudice; and (2) final judgment herein after
14
the completion and exhaustion of all appeals, rehearings, remands, trials, or reviews of this action,
15
including the time limits for filing any motions or applications for extension of time pursuant to
16
applicable law.

5.
DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1
Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. Each Party
20
or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under this Order must take care
21
to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies under the appropriate standards.
22
The Designating Party must designate for protection only those parts of material, documents,
23
items, or oral or written communications that qualify – so that other portions of the material,
24
documents, items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept
25
unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.
26
27
Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations that are
shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper purpose (e.g., to
28
-4-
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CONCERNING THE
EXCHANGE OF CONFIDENTIAL
INFORMATION (CV 11 3396 SBA)
1
unnecessarily encumber or retard the case development process or to impose unnecessary
2
expenses and burdens on other parties) expose the Designating Party to sanctions.
3
If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it designated
4
for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must promptly notify all other
5
Parties that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation.
6
5.2
Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in this Order
7
(see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise stipulated or ordered,
8
Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection under this Order must be clearly so
9
designated before the material is disclosed or produced.
10
Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
11
(a)
for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic documents,
12
but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the Producing
13
Party affix the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” to each page that contains protected material. If only
14
a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also
15
must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the
16
margins).
17
A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents or materials available for inspection
18
need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated which
19
material it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before the designation, all
20
of the material made available for inspection shall be deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the
21
inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party
22
must determine which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order.
23
Then, before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the
24
“CONFIDENTIAL” legend to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion or
25
portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly
26
identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).
27
28
(b)
for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or trial proceedings,
any party, or counsel for such party, may designate deposition testimony or any portion of
-5-
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CONCERNING THE
EXCHANGE OF CONFIDENTIAL
INFORMATION (CV 11 3396 SBA)
1
deposition testimony as “CONFIDENTIAL” by advising the reporter and counsel of such
2
designation during the course of the deposition or within 45 days of receipt of the deposition
3
transcript. Portions of any deposition designated “CONFIDENTIAL” are to be marked as such
4
by the reporter and are also to bear substantially the following designation: “Portions of this
5
deposition were taken subject to the Protective Order of the Court. These portions shall remain
6
confidential and shall be treated according to the requirements of the Court’s Order.” Whenever
7
any writing designated as “CONFIDENTIAL” is identified as an exhibit in connection with
8
testimony given in this litigation, it shall be so marked and it shall be subject to all of the
9
requirements of the Court’s order. Except as expressly provided in this paragraph, this
10
Stipulation and Order shall not supersede, alter, affect or modify in any way whatsoever the
11
provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 2025.010, et seq.
12
(c)
for information produced in responses to written discovery, any party to
13
this litigation, or counsel for such party, may designate as “CONFIDENTIAL” its responses to
14
interrogatories or to requests for admission by labeling each response “CONFIDENTIAL.”
15
(d)
for information produced in some form other than documentary and for any
16
other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the exterior of the
17
container or containers in which the information or item is stored the legend “CONFIDENTIAL.”
18
If only a portion or portions of the information or item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to
19
the extent practicable, shall identify the protected portion(s).
20
5.3
Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent failure to
21
designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the Designating Party’s
22
right to secure protection under this Order for such material. Upon timely correction of a
23
designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts to assure that the material is
24
treated in accordance with the provisions of this Order.
25
6.
CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
26
6.1
Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a designation of
27
confidentiality at any time. Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating Party’s confidentiality
28
-6-
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CONCERNING THE
EXCHANGE OF CONFIDENTIAL
INFORMATION (CV 11 3396 SBA)
1
designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable, substantial unfairness, unnecessary economic
2
burdens, or a significant disruption or delay of the litigation, a Party does not waive its right to
3
challenge a confidentiality designation by electing not to mount a challenge promptly after the
4
original designation is disclosed.
5
6.2
Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute resolution
6
process by providing written notice of each designation it is challenging and describing the basis
7
for each challenge. To avoid ambiguity as to whether a challenge has been made, the written
8
notice must recite that the challenge to confidentiality is being made in accordance with this
9
specific paragraph of the Protective Order. The parties shall attempt to resolve each challenge in
10
good faith and must begin the process by conferring directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other
11
forms of communication are not sufficient) within 14 days of the date of service of notice. In
12
conferring, the Challenging Party must explain the basis for its belief that the confidentiality
13
designation was not proper and must give the Designating Party an opportunity to review the
14
designated material, to reconsider the circumstances, and, if no change in designation is offered,
15
to explain the basis for the chosen designation. A Challenging Party may proceed to the next
16
stage of the challenge process only if it has engaged in this meet and confer process first or
17
establishes that the Designating Party is unwilling to participate in the meet and confer process in
18
a timely manner.
19
6.3
Judicial Intervention. If the Parties cannot resolve a challenge without court
20
intervention, the Designating Party shall file and serve a motion to retain confidentiality under
21
Civil Local Rule 7 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5 and General Order 62, if
22
applicable) within 21 days of the initial notice of challenge or within 14 days of the parties
23
agreeing that the meet and confer process will not resolve their dispute, whichever is earlier.
24
Each such motion must be accompanied by a competent declaration affirming that the movant has
25
complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed in the preceding paragraph. Failure by
26
the Designating Party to make such a motion including the required declaration within 21 days (or
27
14 days, if applicable) shall automatically waive the confidentiality designation for each
28
challenged designation. In addition, the Challenging Party may file a motion challenging a
-7-
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CONCERNING THE
EXCHANGE OF CONFIDENTIAL
INFORMATION (CV 11 3396 SBA)
1
confidentiality designation at any time if there is good cause for doing so, including a challenge to
2
the designation of a deposition transcript or any portions thereof. Any motion brought pursuant
3
to this provision must be accompanied by a competent declaration affirming that the movant has
4
complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed by the preceding paragraph.
5
The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the Designating
6
Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose (e.g., to harass or impose
7
unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Challenging Party to
8
sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived the confidentiality designation by failing to
9
file a motion to retain confidentiality as described above, all parties shall continue to afford the
10
material in question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing Party’s
11
designation until the court rules on the challenge.
12
7.
ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
13
7.1
Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is disclosed
14
or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this case only for prosecuting,
15
defending, or attempting to settle this litigation. Such Protected Material may be disclosed only
16
to the categories of persons and under the conditions described in this Order. When the litigation
17
has been terminated, a Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below
18
(FINAL DISPOSITION).
19
Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a location and
20
in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons authorized under this Order.
21
7.2
Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless otherwise
22
ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a Receiving Party may
23
disclose any information or item designated “CONFIDENTIAL” only to:
24
(a)
the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this action, as well as
25
employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably necessary to disclose the
26
information for this litigation;
27

(b)
the officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of the
2
Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have
3
signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);
4
(c)
Experts and consultants of the Receiving Party (including independent
5
experts and consultants and employees or clerical assistants of said experts) who are employed,
6
retained or otherwise consulted by counsel or a party for the purpose of analyzing data,
7
conducting studies or providing opinions to assist in such litigation, to whom disclosure is
8
reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and
9
Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);
10
(d)
the Parties to the litigation;
11
(e)
the court and its personnel;
12
(f)
court reporters and their staff, professional jury or trial consultants, mock
13
jurors, and Professional Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation
14
and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);
15
(g)
during their depositions, witnesses in the action to whom disclosure is
16
reasonably necessary and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound”
17
(Exhibit A), unless otherwise agreed by the Designating Party or ordered by the court. Pages of
18
transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected Material must be
19
separately bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted
20
under this Stipulated Protective Order.
21
(h)
the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a
22
custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information.

24
PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN OTHER
LITIGATION
25
If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation that compels
26
disclosure of any information or items designated in this action as “CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party
27
must:
28
-9-
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CONCERNING THE
EXCHANGE OF CONFIDENTIAL
INFORMATION (CV 11 3396 SBA)
1
2
(a)
promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall
include a copy of the subpoena or court order;
3
(b)
promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order to
4
issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena or order is
5
subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of this Stipulated
6
Protective Order; and
7
8
(c)
cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued by
the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected.
9
If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with the
10
subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this action as
11
“CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the subpoena or order
12
issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s permission. The Designating Party
13
shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in that court of its confidential material –
14
and nothing in these provisions should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving
15
Party in this action to disobey a lawful directive from another court.
16
9.
17
A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE PRODUCED IN THIS
LITIGATION
18
(a)
The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a Non-
19
Party in this action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information produced by Non-
20
Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the remedies and relief provided by this
21
Order. Nothing in these provisions should be construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking
22
additional protections.
23
(b)
In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to
24
produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is subject to an
25
agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential information, then the
26
Party shall:
27
28
- 10 -
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CONCERNING THE
EXCHANGE OF CONFIDENTIAL
INFORMATION (CV 11 3396 SBA)
1
(1)
promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party
2
that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement with a Non-
3
Party;
4
(2)
promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated
5
Protective Order in this litigation, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably specific
6
description of the information requested; and
7
8
(3)
make the information requested available for inspection by the
Non-Party.
9
(c)
If the Non-Party fails to object or seek a protective order from this court
10
within 14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may
11
produce the NonParty’s confidential information responsive to the discovery request. If the Non-
12
Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall not produce any information in its
13
possession or control that is subject to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a
14
determination by the court.1 Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the
15
burden and expense of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material.
16
10.
UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
17
If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed Protected
18
Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this Stipulated Protective
19
Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in writing the Designating Party of the
20
unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the
21
Protected Material, (c) inform the person or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were
22
made of all the terms of this Order, and (d) request such person or persons to execute the
23
“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
24
25
11.
INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE PROTECTED
MATERIAL
26
27
1
28
The purpose of this provision is to alert the interested parties to the existence of confidentiality rights of a NonParty and to afford the Non-Party an opportunity to protect its confidentiality interests in this court.
- 11 -
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CONCERNING THE
EXCHANGE OF CONFIDENTIAL
INFORMATION (CV 11 3396 SBA)
1
When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain inadvertently
2
produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection, the obligations of the
3
Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This
4
provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure may be established in an e-discovery
5
order that provides for production without prior privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of
6
Evidence 502(d) and (e), insofar as the parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a
7
communication or information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work product
8
protection, the parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order
9
submitted to the court.
10
12.
MISCELLANOUS
11
12.1
Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any person to
12
seek its modification by the court in the future.
13
12.2
Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this Protective
14
Order no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to disclosing or producing any
15
information or item on any ground not addressed in this Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly,
16
no Party waives any right to object on any ground to use in evidence of any of the material
17
covered by this Protective Order.
18
12.3
Filing Protected Material. Without written permission from the Designating Party
19
or a court order secured after appropriate notice to all interested persons, a Party may not file in
20
the public record in this action any Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any
21
Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5 and General Order 62. Protected
22
Material may only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the
23
specific Protected Material at issue. Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5 and General Order 62, a
24
sealing order will issue only upon a request establishing that the Protected Material at issue is
25
privileged, protectable as a trade secret, or otherwise entitled to protection under the law. If a
26
Receiving Party’s request to file Protected Material under seal pursuant to Civil Local Rule 7927
5(d) and General Order 62 is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the
28
- 12 -
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CONCERNING THE
EXCHANGE OF CONFIDENTIAL
INFORMATION (CV 11 3396 SBA)
1
information in the public record pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(e) unless otherwise instructed

by the court.

13.
FINAL DISPOSITION
4
Within 60 days after the final disposition of this action, as defined in paragraph 4, each
5
Receiving Party must return all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such
6
