warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the court to enter the

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

10

material under seal.

SCOPE
The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only Protected

10
11

Material (as defined above), but also (1) any information copied or extracted from

12

Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or compilations of Protected

13

Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or presentations by Parties or their

14

Counsel that might reveal Protected Material. However, the protections conferred by

15

this Stipulation and Order do not cover the following information: (a) any information that

16

is in the public domain at the time of disclosure to a Receiving Party or becomes part of

17

the public domain after its disclosure to a Receiving Party as a result of publication not

18

involving a violation of this Order, including becoming part of the public record through

19

trial or otherwise; and (b) any information known to the Receiving Party prior to the

20

disclosure or obtained by the Receiving Party after the disclosure from a source who

21

obtained the information lawfully and under no obligation of confidentiality to the

22

Designating Party. Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by a

23

separate agreement or order.

24

4.

25

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

26

by this Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in writing

27

or a court order otherwise directs. Final disposition shall be deemed to be the later of (1)

28

dismissal of all claims and defenses in this action, with or without prejudice; and (2) final

DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1

5

Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection.

6

Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under this

7

Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies

8

under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for protection

9

only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written communications that

10

qualify – so that other portions of the material, documents, items, or communications for

11

which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of this

12

Order.

13

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

14

are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper purpose

15

(e.g., to unnecessarily encumber or retard the case development process or to impose

16

unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) expose the Designating Party to

17

sanctions.

18

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

19

designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must

20

promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation.

21

5.2

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

22

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

23

or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection under this

24

Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or produced.

25

Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

26

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

27

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

28

Producing Party affix the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” to each page that contains protected

1

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

2

the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making

3

appropriate markings in the margins).

4

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

5

inspection need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has

6

indicated which material it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and

7

before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be deemed

8

“CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants

9

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

10

portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing the

11

specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL” legend to

12

each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion or portions of the material

13

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

14

protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).

15

(b) for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or trial proceedings, that

16

the Designating Party identify on the record, before the close of the deposition,

17

hearing, or other proceeding, all protected testimony.

18

(c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for any

19

other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the

20

exterior of the container or containers in which the information or item is stored

21

the legend “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information or

22

item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall

23

identify the protected portion(s).

5.3

1

Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent

2

failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the

3

Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material. Upon

4

timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts to

5

assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this Order.

6

6.

7

CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1

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

8

designation of confidentiality at any time. Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating

9

Party’s confidentiality designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable, substantial

10

unfairness, unnecessary economic burdens, or a significant disruption or delay of the

11

litigation, a Party does not waive its right to challenge a confidentiality designation by

12

electing not to mount a challenge promptly after the original designation is disclosed.

13

6.2

Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute

14

resolution process by providing written notice of each designation it is challenging and

15

describing the basis for each challenge. To avoid ambiguity as to whether a challenge

16

has been made, the written notice must recite that the challenge to confidentiality is

17

being made in accordance with this specific paragraph of the Protective Order. The

18

parties shall attempt to resolve each challenge in good faith and must begin the process

19

by conferring directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other forms of communication are not

20

sufficient) within 14 days of the date of service of notice. In conferring, the Challenging

21

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

22

proper and must give the Designating Party an opportunity to review the designated

23

material, to reconsider the circumstances, and, if no change in designation is offered, to

24

explain the basis for the chosen designation. A Challenging Party may proceed to the

25

next stage of the challenge process only if it has engaged in this meet and confer

26

process first or establishes that the Designating Party is unwilling to participate in the

27

meet and confer process in a timely manner.

6.3

1

Judicial Intervention. If the Parties cannot resolve a challenge without
the parties shall file a joint discovery letter pursuant to

2

court intervention, the Designating Partyof Judge and serve a motion to retain
the standing order shall file Ryu

3

confidentiality under Civil Local Rule 7 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5, if

4

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

5

parties agreeing that the meet and confer process will not resolve their dispute,

6

whichever is earlier. Each such motion must be accompanied by a competent

7

declaration affirming that the movant has complied with the meet and confer

8

requirements imposed in the preceding paragraph. Failure by the Designating Party to

9

make such a motion including the required declaration within 21 days (or 14 days, if

10

applicable) shall automatically waive the confidentiality designation for each challenged

11

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

12

confidentiality designation at any time if there is good cause for doing so, including a

13

challenge to the designation of a deposition transcript or any portions thereof. Any

14

motion brought pursuant to this provision must be accompanied by a competent

15

declaration affirming that the movant has complied with the meet and confer

16

requirements imposed by the preceding paragraph.
The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the

17
18

Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose (e.g.,

19

to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose

20

the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived the

21

confidentiality designation by failing to file a motion to retain confidentiality as described

22

above, all parties shall continue to afford the material in question the level of protection

23

to which it is entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the court rules on the

24

challenge.

25

7.

26

ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1

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

27

disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this case

28

only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this litigation. Such Protected

1

Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the conditions

2

described in this Order. When the litigation has been terminated, a Receiving Party

3

must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL DISPOSITION).

4

Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a

5

location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons

6

authorized under this Order.

7

7.2

Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless otherwise

8

ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a Receiving Party

9

may disclose any information or item designated “CONFIDENTIAL” only to:

10

(a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this action, as well as

11

employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably

12

necessary to disclose the information for this litigation and who have signed the

13

“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit

14

A;

15

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

16

Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation

(Exhibit A);

19

(c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom disclosure

is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed the

“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);

22

(d) the court and its personnel;

23

(e) court reporters and their staff, professional jury or trial consultants, mock

24

jurors, and Professional Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for

25

this litigation and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be

26

Bound” (Exhibit A);

PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN
OTHER LITIGATION
If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation that

11

compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this action as

12

“CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:

13

(a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall

14

include a copy of the subpoena or court order;

15

(b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order to

16

issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the

17

subpoena or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall

18

include a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and

19

(c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued by

20

the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected.

21

If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with the

22

subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this

23

action as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the

24

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

25

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

26

protection in that court of its confidential material – and nothing in these

27

provisions should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party

28

in this action to disobey a lawful directive from another court.

A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE PRODUCED IN

2

THIS LITIGATION

3

(a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a Non-

4

Party in this action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information

5

produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the

6

remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be

7

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

8

(b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to produce

9

a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is subject

10

to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential

11

information, then the Party shall:

12

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

13

or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement with a

14

Non-Party;

15

(2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated Protective Order

16

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

17

description of the information requested; and

18

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

19

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

20

14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving

21

Party may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the

22

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

23

Party shall not produce any information in its possession or control that is subject

24

to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the

25

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

26

and expense of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material.

Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this

2

Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in writing

3

the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve

4

all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or persons to

5

whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Order, and (d)

request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be

11.

INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE
PROTECTED MATERIAL

9

When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain

10
11

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

12

obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil

13

Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure may

14

be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production without prior

15

16

parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a communication or

17

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

18

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

19

the court.

24

Protective Order no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to

25

disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this

26

Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any ground

27

to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order.

1

Party or a court order secured after appropriate notice to all interested persons, a Party

2

may not file in the public record in this action any Protected Material. A Party that seeks

3

to file under seal any Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5.

4

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

5

sealing of the specific Protected Material at issue. Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5, a

6

sealing order will issue only upon a request establishing that the Protected Material at

7

issue is privileged, protectable as a trade secret, or otherwise entitled to protection

8

under the law. If a Receiving Party's request to file Protected Material under seal

9

pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(d) is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party

10

may file the information in the public record pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(e) unless

11

otherwise instructed by the court.

13

FINAL DISPOSITION
Within 60 days after the final disposition of this action, as defined in paragraph 4,

14

each Receiving Party must return all Protected Material to the Producing Party or

15

destroy such material. As used in this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all

16

copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries, and any other format reproducing or

17

capturing any of the Protected Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or

18

destroyed, the Receiving Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party

19

(and, if not the same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline

20

that (1) identifies (by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was

21

returned or destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any

22

copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or capturing

23

any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel are entitled to

24

retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, trial, deposition, and hearing

25

transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial exhibits, expert

26

reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert work product, even if such

27

materials contain Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or constitute

28

Protected Material remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in Section 4
