The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only Protected Material
SCOPE
3
(as defined above), but also any information copied or extracted therefrom, as well as all copies,
4
excerpts, summaries, or compilations thereof, plus testimony, conversations, or presentations by
5
parties or counsel to or in court or in other settings that might reveal Protected Material. See p. 4.1.

DURATION
7
Even after the termination of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations imposed by this
8
Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in writing or a court order
9
otherwise directs. For a period of 6 months after the termination of this litigation, this Court will
10
11
retain jurisdiction to enforce the terms of this order.
5.
DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1
Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection.
12
Each Party or non-Party that designates information or items for protection under this Order must
13
take care to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies under the appropriate
14
standards. A Designating Party must take care to designate for protection only those parts of
15
material, documents, items, or oral or written communications that qualify - so that other portions
16
of the material, documents, items or communications for which protection is not warranted are
17
not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.
18
Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations that
19
are shown to be clearly unjustified, or that have been made for an improper purpose (e.g., to
20
unnecessarily encumber or retard the case development process, or to impose unnecessary
21
expenses and burdens on other parties), expose the Designating Party to sanctions.
22
If it comes to a Party's or a non-Party's attention that information or items that it
23
designated for protection do not qualify for protection at all, or do not qualify for the level of
24
protection initially asserted, that Party or non-Party must promptly notify all other parties that it is
25
withdrawing the mistaken designation.
26
5.2
Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in this
27
Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a), below), or as otherwise stipulated or ordered,
28
material that qualifies for protection under this Order must be clearly so designated before the
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER- CV 12-2807 LHK
4
1
3.
2
However, the protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order do not cover the following information:
3
(a) any information that is in the public domain at the time of disclosure to a Receiving Party or becomes
4
part of the public domain after its disclosure to a Receiving Party as a result of publication not involving
5
a violation of this Order, including becoming part of the public record through trial or otherwise; and (b)
6
any information known to the Receiving Party prior to the disclosure or obtained by the Receiving Party
7
after the disclosure from a source who obtained the information lawfully and under no obligation of
8
confidentiality to the Designating Party. Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by a
9
separate agreement or order.

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER- CVI2-2807 LHK
4.1
1
2
material is disclosed or produced.
Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
3
(a)
for information in documentary form (apart from transcripts of
4
depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the Producing Party affix the legend
5
"CONFIDENTIAL" or "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL- ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY" at the top
6
of each page that contains protected material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a
7
page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected
8
portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins) and must specify, for each
9
portion, the level of protection being asserted (either "CONFIDENTIAL" or "HIGHLY
10
CONFIDENTIAL- ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY").
11
A Party or non-Party that makes original documents or materials available
12
for inspection need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated
13
which material it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before the
14
designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be deemed "HIGHLY
15
CONFIDENTIAL- ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY." After the inspecting Party has identified the
16
documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents,
17
or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order, then, before producing the specified
18
documents, the Producing Party must affix the appropriate legend ("CONFIDENTIAL" or
19
"HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL- ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY") at the top of each page that
20
contains Protected Material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for
21
protection, the Producing Party must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making
22
appropriate markings in the margins) and must specify, for each portion, the level of protection
23
being asserted (either "CONFIDENTIAL" or "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL- ATTORNEYS'
24
EYES ONLY").
25
(b)
for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or trial
26
proceedings, that the Party or non-Party offering or sponsoring the testimony identify on the
27
record, before the close of the deposition, hearing, or other proceeding, all protected testimony,
28
and further specify any portions of the testimony that qualify as "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL-
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER- CVI2-2807 LHK
5
ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY." When it is impractical to identify separately each portion of
2
testimony that is entitled to protection, and when it appears that substantial portions of the
3
testimony may qualify for protection, the Party or non-Party that sponsors, offers, or gives the
4
testimony may invoke on the record (before the deposition or proceeding is concluded) a right to
5
have up to twenty (20) days to identify the specific portions of the testimony as to which
6
protection is sought and to specify the level of protection being asserted ("CONFIDENTIAL" or
7
"HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL- ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY"). Only those portions of the
8
testimony that are appropriately designated for protection within the 20 days shall be covered by
9
the provisions of this Stipulated Protective Order.
10
Transcript pages containing Protected Material must be separately bound
11
by the court reporter, who must affix to the top of each such page the legend "CONFIDENTIAL"
12
or "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL- ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY," as instructed by the Party or
13
non-Party offering or sponsoring the witness or.presenting the testimony.
14
(c)
for information produced in some form other than documentary,
15
and for any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the
16
exterior of the container or containers in which the information or item is stored the legend
17
"CONFIDENTIAL" or "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL- ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY." If only
18
portions of the information or item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent
19
practicable, shall identify the protected portions, specifying whether they qualify as
20
"CONFIDENTIAL" or "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL- ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY."
21
5.3
Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent
22
failure to designate qualified information or items as "CONFIDENTIAL" or "HIGHLY
23
CONFIDENTIAL- ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY" does not, standing alone, waive the
24
Designating Party's right to secure protection under this Order for such material. If material is
25
appropriately designated as "CONFIDENTIAL" or "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL-
26
ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY" after the material was initially produced, the Receiving Party, on
27
timely notification of the designation, must make reasonable efforts to assure that the material is
28
treated in accordance with this Order.
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER- CVI2-2807 LHK

CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1
Timing of Challenges. Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating Party's
3
confidentiality designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable substantial unfairness, unnecessary
4
economic burdens, or a later significant disruption or delay of the litigation, a Party does not
5
waive its right to challenge a confidentiality designation by electing not to mount a challenge
6
promptly after the original designation is disclosed.
7
6.2
Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute
8
resolution process by providing written notice of each designation it is challenging and describing
9
the basis for each challenge. To avoid ambiguity as to whether a challenge has been made, the
10
written notice must recite that the challenge to confidentiality is being made in accordance with
11
this specific paragraph of the Protective Order. The parties shall attempt to resolve each
12
challenge in good faith and must begin the process by conferring directly (in voice-to-voice
13
dialogue; other forms of communication are not sufficient) within 14 days of the date of service
14
of notice. In conferring, the Challenging Party must explain the basis for its belief that the
15
confidentiality designation was not proper and must give the Designating Party an opportunity to
16
review the designated material, to reconsider the circumstances, and, if no change in designation
17
is offered, to explain the basis for the chosen designation. Further meet-and-confer discussions
18
shall be held in accordance with the "Standing Order Re: Civil Discovery Disputes" of Judge
19
Howard Lloyd for so long as this litigation is assigned to Judge Lloyd for diswvery purposes.
20
6.3
Judicial Intervention. Ifthe parties cannot resolve a challenge without
21
court intervention, they shall seek judicial resolution in accordance with the "Standing Order Re:
22
Civil Discovery Disputes" of Judge Howard Lloyd for so long as this litigation is assigned to
23
Judge Lloyd for discovery purposes. Failure by the Designating Party to seek resolution within
24
the time required by the "Standing Order Re: Civil Discovery Disputes" shall automatically waive
25
the confidentiality designation for each challenged designation.
26
The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the
27
Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose (e.g., to harass
28
or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other Parties) may expose the Challenging Party
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER- CVI2-2807 LHK
7
to sanctions. Until the Court rules on a challenge, all parties shall continue to afford the material
2
3
in question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing Party's designation.,
unless the Designating Party has waived the designation by failing to seek relief, as described above.
7.
ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1
4
Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is
5
disclosed or produced by another Party or by a non-Party in connection with this case only for
6
prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this litigation. Such Protected Material may be
7
disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the conditions described in this Order.
8
When the litigation has been terminated, a Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of
9
section 12, below (FINAL DISPOSITION).
10
Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a
11
location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons authorized under
12
this Order.
13
7.2

PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN
OTHER LITIGATION
If a Receiving Party is served with a subpoena or an order issued in other litigation that
11
would compel disclosure of any information or items designated in this litigation as
12
"CONFIDENTIAL" or "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL- ATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY," the
13
Receiving Party must so notify the Designating Party, in writing (by fax, if possible) immediately
14
and in no event more than three court days after receiving the subpoena or order. Such
15
notification must include a copy of the subpoena or court order.
16
The Receiving Party also must immediately inform in writing the party who caused the
17
subpoena or order to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the
18
subpoena or order is the subject of this Protective Order. In addition, the Receiving Party must
19
deliver a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order promptly to the party in the other litigation that
20
caused the subpoena or order to issue.
21
The purpose of imposing these duties is to alert the interested parties to the existence of
22
this Protective Order and to afford the Designating Party in this case an opportunity to try to
23
protect its confidentiality interests in the court from which the subpoena or order issued. The
24
Designating Party shall bear the burdens and the expenses of seeking protection in that court of its
25
confidential material - and nothing in these provisions should be construed as authorizing or
26
encouraging a Receiving Party in this litigation to disobey a lawful directive from another court.
27
9.
28
If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed Protected
UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER- CY12-2807 LHK
10
1
Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this Stipulated Protective
2
Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in writing the Designating Party of the
3
unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the
4
Protected Material, (c) inform the person or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were
5
made of all the terms of this Order, and (d) request such person or persons to execute the

FILING PROTECTED MATERIAL
appropriate notice to all interested persons, a Party may not file in the public record in this
10
litigation any Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any Protected Material
11
must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5 and General Order 62.
12
13
11.
INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE
PROTECTED MATERIAL
14
When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain inadvertently
15
produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection, the obligations of the
16
Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This
17
provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure may be established in an e-discovery
18
19
order that provides for production without prior privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of
(e)
Evidence 502(d) and (c), insofar as the parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a
20
communication or information covered by attorney-client privilege or work-product protection,
21
the parties may incorporate their agreement in the Stipulated Protective Order submitted to the
22
Court.
23
12.
FINAL DISPOSITION
24
Unless otherwise ordered or agreed in writing by the Producing Party, each Receiving
25
Party must return all Protected Material to the Producing Party within sixty (60) days after the
26
final termination of this litigation, defined as the later of ( 1) dismissal of all claims and defenses
27
in this litigation, with or without prejudice or (2) final judgment after the completion and
28
exhaustion of all appeals, rehearings, remands, trials, or reviews of this action, including the time
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER- CVI2-2807 LHK
11
1
limits for filing any motions or applications for extension of time pursuant to applicable law. As
2
used in this subdivision, "all Protected Material" includes all copies, abstracts, compilations,
3
summaries or any other form of reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material. With
4
permission in writing from the Designating Party, the Receiving Party may destroy some or all of
5
the Protected Material instead of returning it. Whether the Protected Material is returned or
6
destroyed, the Receiving Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if
7
not the same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the sixty-day deadline that identifies
8
(by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or destroyed and that
9
affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries
10
or other forms of reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this
11
provision, Counsel of Record are entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion
12
papers, transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence or attorney work product, even if such
13
materials contain Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or constitute
14
Protected Material remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION),
15
above.

13.
MISCELLANEOUS
13.1
Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any
person to seek its modification by the Court in the future.
13.2
Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this
20
Protective Order no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to disclosing or
21
producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this Stipulated Protective
22
Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any ground to use in evidence of any of
23
the material covered by this Protective Order.

(b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to produce a NonParty’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is subject to an agreement with the
Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential information, then the Party shall:
(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;
(2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated Protective Order
14

15
information requested; and
16
(3) make the information requested available for inspection by the Non-Party.

18
of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may produce the Non-
