PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS
Disclosure and discovery activity in this action are likely to involve production of

17

confidential, proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public disclosure

18

and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be warranted. Accordingly,

19

the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the court to enter the following Stipulated Protective

20

Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does not confer blanket protections on all

21

disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection it affords from public disclosure and

22

use extends only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment under

23

the applicable legal principles. The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 14.4, below,

24

that this Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information under

25

seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 and General Order 62 set forth the procedures that must be followed

26

and the standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to file material

27

under seal.

28
-3STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case No. C 13-00232 CW

1

information lawfully and under no obligation of confidentiality to the Designating Party. Any use

2

of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by a separate agreement or order.

3

4.

DURATION
Even after final disposition of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations imposed by this

4
5

Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in writing or a court order

6

otherwise directs. Final disposition shall be deemed to be the later of (1) dismissal of all claims and

7

defenses in this action, with or without prejudice; and (2) final judgment herein after the

8

completion and exhaustion of all appeals, rehearings, remands, trials, or reviews of this action,

9

including the time limits for filing any motions or applications for extension of time pursuant to

10

applicable law.

11

5.

12

DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1

Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. Each Party or

13

Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under this Order must take care to

14

limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies under the appropriate standards. To the

15

extent it is practical to do so, the Designating Party must designate for protection only those parts

16

of material, documents, items, or oral or written communications that qualify – so that other

17

portions of the material, documents, items, or communications for which protection is not

18

warranted are not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.

19

Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations that are shown

20

to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily

21

encumber or retard the case development process or to impose unnecessary expenses and burdens

22

on other parties) expose the Designating Party to sanctions.

23

If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it designated for

24

protection do not qualify for protection at all or do not qualify for the level of protection initially

25

asserted, that Designating Party must promptly notify all other parties that it is withdrawing the

26

mistaken designation.

5.2

Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in this Order

2

(see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise stipulated or ordered,

3

Disclosure or Discovery

4
5

Material that qualifies for protection under this Order must be clearly so designated before
the material is disclosed or produced.

6

Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

7

(a)

for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic documents, but

8

excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the Producing Party

9

affix the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES

10

ONLY” to each page that contains protected material. If only a portion or portions of the material

11

on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected

12

portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins) and must specify, for each

13

portion, the level of protection being asserted.

14

A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents or materials available for inspection

15

need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated which material

16

it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before the designation, all of the

17

material made available for inspection shall be deemed “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

18

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants

19

copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents, or portions thereof,

20

qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing the specified documents, the

21

Producing Party must affix the appropriate legend (“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY

22

CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” to each page that contains Protected Material.

23

If only a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party

24

also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the

25

margins) and must specify, for each portion, the level of protection being asserted.

26

(b)

for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or trial proceedings, that the

27

Designating Party identify on the record, before the close of the deposition, hearing, or other

28

proceeding, all protected testimony and specify the level of protection being asserted. When it is
-5STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case No. C 13-00232 CW

1

impractical to identify separately each portion of testimony that is entitled to protection and it

2

appears that substantial portions of the testimony may qualify for protection, the Designating Party

3

may invoke on the record (before the deposition, hearing, or other proceeding is concluded) a right

4

to have up to 21 days to identify the specific portions of the testimony as to which protection is

5

sought and to specify the level of protection being asserted. Only those portions of the testimony

6

that are appropriately designated for protection within the 21 days shall be covered by the

7

provisions of this Stipulated Protective Order. Alternatively, a Designating Party may specify, at

8

the deposition or up to 21 days afterwards if that period is properly invoked, that the entire

9

transcript shall be treated as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

10
11

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.”
Parties shall give the other parties notice if they reasonably expect a deposition, hearing or

12

other proceeding to include Protected Material so that the other parties can ensure that only

13

authorized individuals who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound”

14

(Exhibit A) are present at those proceedings. The use of a document as an exhibit at a deposition

15

shall not in any way affect its designation as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL

16

– ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.”

17

Transcripts containing Protected Material shall have an obvious legend on the title page that

18

the transcript contains Protected Material, and the title page shall be followed by a list of all pages

19

(including line numbers as appropriate) that have been designated as Protected Material and the

20

level of protection being asserted by the Designating Party. The Designating Party shall inform the

21

court reporter of these requirements. Any transcript that is prepared before the expiration of a 21-

22

day period for designation shall be treated during that period as if it had been designated “HIGHLY

23

CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” in its entirety unless otherwise agreed. After

24

the expiration of that period, the transcript shall be treated only as actually designated.

25

(c)

for information produced in some form other than documentary and for any other

26

tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the exterior of the container

27

or containers in which the information or item is stored the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or

28

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.” If only a portion or portions of the
-6STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case No. C 13-00232 CW

1

information or item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify

2

the protected portion(s) and specify the level of protection being asserted.
5.3

3

Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent failure to

4

designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the Designating Party’s

5

right to secure protection under this Order for such material. Upon timely correction of a

6

designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts to assure that the material is treated

7

in accordance with the provisions of this Order.

8

6.

9

CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1

Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a designation of

10

confidentiality at any time. Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating Party’s confidentiality

11

designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable, substantial unfairness, unnecessary economic

12

burdens, or a significant disruption or delay of the litigation, a Party does not waive its right to

13

challenge a confidentiality designation by electing not to mount a challenge promptly after the

14

original designation is disclosed.

15

6.2

Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute resolution process

16

by providing written notice of each designation it is challenging and describing the basis for each

17

challenge. To avoid ambiguity as to whether a challenge has been made, the written notice must

18

recite that the challenge to confidentiality is being made in accordance with this specific paragraph

19

of the Protective Order. The parties shall attempt to resolve each challenge in good faith and must

20

begin the process by conferring directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other forms of communication

21

are not sufficient) within 14 days of the date of service of notice. In conferring, the Challenging

22

Party must explain the basis for its belief that the confidentiality designation was not proper and

23

must give the Designating Party an opportunity to review the designated material, to reconsider the

24

circumstances, and, if no change in designation is offered, to explain the basis for the chosen

25

designation. A Challenging Party may proceed to the next stage of the challenge process only if it

26

has engaged in this meet and confer process first or establishes that the Designating Party is

27

unwilling to participate in the meet and confer process in a timely manner.

28
-7STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case No. C 13-00232 CW

6.3

1

Judicial Intervention. If the Parties cannot resolve a challenge without court

2

intervention, the Designating Party shall file and serve a motion to retain confidentiality under

3

Civil Local Rule 7 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5 and General Order 62, if

4

applicable) within 21 days of the initial notice of challenge or within 14 days of the parties

5

agreeing that the meet and confer process will not resolve their dispute, whichever is earlier. Each

6

such motion must be accompanied by a competent declaration affirming that the movant has

7

complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed in the preceding paragraph. Failure by

8

the Designating Party to make such a motion including the required declaration within 21 days (or

9

14 days, if applicable) shall automatically waive the confidentiality designation for each challenged

10

designation. In addition, the Challenging Party may file a motion challenging a confidentiality

11

designation at any time if there is good cause for doing so, including a challenge to the designation

12

of a deposition transcript or any portions thereof. Any motion brought pursuant to this provision

13

must be accompanied by a competent declaration affirming that the movant has complied with the

14

meet and confer requirements imposed by the preceding paragraph.

15

The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the Designating

16

Party. Frivolous challenges and those made for an improper purpose (e.g., to harass or impose

17

unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions.

18

Unless the Designating Party has waived the confidentiality designation by failing to file a motion

19

to retain confidentiality as described above, all parties shall continue to afford the material in

20

question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until

21

the court rules on the challenge.

7.

23

ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1

Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is disclosed or

24

produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this case only for prosecuting,

25

defending, or attempting to settle this litigation. Such Protected Material may be disclosed only to

26

the categories of persons and under the conditions described in this Order. When the litigation has

27

been terminated, a Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL

28

DISPOSITION).

or court order shall not produce any information designated in this action as “CONFIDENTIAL” or

10

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” before a determination by the court

11

from which the subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s

12

permission. The Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in that

court of its confidential material – and nothing in these provisions should be construed as

14

authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this action to disobey a lawful directive from

15

another court.

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-Party in

19

this action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

20

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”. Such information produced by Non-Parties in connection with this

21

litigation is protected by the remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these

22

provisions should be construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.

23

(b)

In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to produce a Non-

24

Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is subject to an agreement with the

25

Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential information, then the Party shall:

26
27

1.

promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party that some

or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement with a Non-Party;

28
-11STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated Protective

Order in this litigation, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably specific description of

3

the information requested; and

(c)

5

make the information requested available for inspection by the Non-Party.

If the Non-Party fails to object or seek a protective order from this court within 14

6

days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may produce the

7

Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery request. If the Non-Party timely

8

seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall not produce any information in its possession or

9

control that is subject to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination

10

by the court. Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense

11

of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material.

12

10.

UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed Protected

13
14

Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this Stipulated Protective

15

Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in writing the Designating Party of the

16

unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected

17

Material, (c) inform the person or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the

18

terms of this Order, and (d) request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and

INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE PROTECTED
MATERIAL

22

When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain inadvertently

23

produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection, the obligations of the

24

Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision

25

is not intended to modify whatever procedure may be established in an e-discovery order that

26

provides for production without prior privilege review. If information subject to a claim of

27

attorney-client privilege or work product protection is inadvertently produced, such production

28
-12STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case No. C 13-00232 CW

1

shall in no way prejudice or otherwise constitute a waiver of, or estoppel as to, any claim of

2

privilege or work-product protection for such information. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence

3

502(d) and (e), insofar as the parties reach a further agreement on the effect of disclosure of a

4

communication or information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work product protection,

5

the parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order submitted to the

6

court.

10

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

11

no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to disclosing or producing any

12

information or item on any ground not addressed in this Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no

13

Party waives any right to object on any ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by

14

this Protective Order.

15

12.3

Filing Protected Material. Without written permission from the Designating Party or

16

a court order secured after appropriate notice to all interested persons, a Party may not file in the

17

public record in this action any Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any

18

Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5 and General Order 62. Protected

19

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

20

specific Protected Material at issue. Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5 and General Order 62, a

21
