AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

1.

2

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

3

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

4

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

5

Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to enter the following

6

Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does not confer blanket

7

protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection it affords from

8

public disclosure and use extends only to the limited information or items that are entitled to

9

confidential treatment under the applicable legal principles. The parties further acknowledge, as

10

set forth in Section 14.4, below, that this Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file

11

confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 and General Order 62 set forth the

12

procedures that must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a party seeks

13

permission from the Court to file material under seal.

20

competitively sensitive information, personal identifying information, or other information, the

21

22

confidential, be detrimental to the conduct of that party’s business or personal affairs.

23

2.3

Designating Party: a Party or Non-Party that designates information or items that

24

it produces in disclosures or in responses to discovery as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY

becoming part of the public record through trial or otherwise; and (b) any information known to

23

the Receiving Party prior to the disclosure or obtained by the Receiving Party after the disclosure

DURATION

2

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

3

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

4

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

5

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

6

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

7

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

8

applicable law. After the final disposition of this action, this Court will retain jurisdiction to

9

enforce the terms of this Order. This Court’s retention of jurisdiction pursuant to this paragraph

10

shall not exceed five (5) years after final disposition.

12

DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1

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

13

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

14

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

15

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

16

those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written communications that qualify—so that

17

other 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

20

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

21

unnecessarily encumber or retard the case development process or to impose unnecessary

22

expenses and burdens 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

24

for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must promptly notify all other

25

Parties that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation.

26

5.2

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

27

or as otherwise stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for

28

protection under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or
-5-

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

1
2
3

produced.
Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
(a)

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

4

but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), to the extent

5

practicable, the Designating Party shall affix the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY

6

CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE

7

CODE” to each page of the paper or electronic document that contains Protected Material.

8
9

(i)

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

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

10

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

11

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

12

CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.” After the inspecting Party has identified the

13

documents it wants copied and produced, the Designating Party must determine which documents

14

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

15

extent practicable, the Designating Party must affix the appropriate legend (“CONFIDENTIAL”

16

or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY

17

CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE”) to each page of a paper or electronic document that

18

contains Protected Material.

19

(ii)

For documents produced electronically in a format that includes separate

20

pagination, to the extent practicable, the Designating Party must affix the legend

21

“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or

22

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” to each electronic page of such documents that

23

contains Protected Material. For documents produced in a format which does not lend itself to

24

separate pagination, confidentiality shall be designated in a reasonable manner.

25
26
27
28

(b)

For testimony given in deposition, hearing or other proceeding, the

Designating Party may either:
(i)

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

proceeding, all “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES
-6-

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

1

ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” testimony by specifying the

2

portions of the testimony that qualify for protection; or

3

(ii)

designate the entirety of the testimony as “CONFIDENTIAL” or

4

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

5

SOURCE CODE” (before the deposition, hearing, or other proceeding is concluded) with the

6

right to have up to 30 days after receipt of the final transcript of the deposition, hearing, or other

7

proceeding to identify the specific portions of the testimony qualifying for protection as

8

“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or

9

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” testimony. Only those portions of the

10

testimony that are appropriately designated for protection within the 30 days of receipt of the final

11

transcript shall be covered by the provisions of this Stipulated Protective Order, unless the

12

Designating Party specifies that the entire transcript shall be treated as “CONFIDENTIAL” or

13

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

14

SOURCE CODE.”

15

Parties shall give the other parties notice if they reasonably expect a deposition, court

16

hearing or conference, or other proceeding to include Protected Material so that the other parties

17

can ensure that only authorized individuals who have signed the “Acknowledgment and

18

Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A) are present at those proceedings. Parties shall act with

19

caution at court hearings and conferences so as not to disclose Protected Material publicly

20

without providing an opportunity for the Designating Party to be heard concerning, as appropriate,

21

sealing the courtroom, sealing the transcript, or other relief. For court hearings and conferences, a

22

Party shall provide at least 48 hours’ notice to the Designating Party before discussing, displaying,

23

submitting as evidence, or otherwise entering into the record any Protected Material produced by

24

the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, this advance-notice requirement shall

25

not apply in circumstances where the Party could not have reasonably anticipated so using

26

Protected Material at the court hearing or conference. The Designating Party may move to seal

27

the Protected Material or for other relief either in writing or orally, either before or during the

28

court hearing or conference. The use of a document as an exhibit at a deposition, hearing, or
-7-

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

1

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

2

CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE

3

CODE.”

4

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

5

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

6

pages (including line numbers as appropriate) that have been designated as Protected Material. In

7

circumstances where portions of the testimony are designated for protection, the transcript pages

8

containing “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”

9

or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” information may be separately bound by the

10

court reporter, who must affix to the top of each page the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or

11

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

12

SOURCE CODE,” as instructed by the Designating Party. The Designating Party shall inform

13

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

14

30-day period for designation shall be treated during that period as if it had been designated

15

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” in its entirety unless otherwise

16

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

17

designated.

18

(c)

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

19

other tangible items, including, without limitation, DVDs or other recordable media, the

20

Designating Party shall affix in a prominent place on the exterior of the container or containers in

21

which the information or item is stored the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY

22

CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE

23

CODE.” If only a portion or portions of the information or item warrant protection, the

24

Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected portion(s) and specify the

25

level of protection being asserted.

26

5.3

Inadvertent Failures to Designate. In the event that any Disclosure or Discovery

27

Material or other information that is subject to a “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY

28

CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE
-8-

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

1

CODE” designation is inadvertently produced without such designation, the Party that

2

inadvertently produced the Disclosure or Discovery Material shall give written notice of such

3

inadvertent production promptly after the Party discovers the inadvertent failure to designate (but

4

no later than fourteen (14) calendar days after the Party discovers the inadvertent failure to

5

designate), together with a further copy of the subject Disclosure or Discovery Material or other

6

information designated as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’

7

EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” (the “Inadvertent

8

Production Notice”). Upon receipt of such Inadvertent Production Notice, the Party that received

9

the inadvertently produced Disclosure or Discovery Material or other information shall promptly

10

destroy the inadvertently produced Disclosure or Discovery Material or other information and all

11

copies thereof, or, at the expense of the Producing Party, return such together with all copies of

12

such Disclosure or Discovery Material or other information to counsel for the Producing Party

13

and shall retain only the “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’

14

EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” designated Disclosure or

15

Discovery Material. This provision is not intended to apply to any inadvertent production of any

16

information or materials protected by attorney-client or work product privileges, which

17

inadvertent production is governed by Section 13 below.

18

5.4

Personally Identifiable Information of Named Plaintiffs. Defendant shall make

19

reasonable efforts to designate as “CONFIDENTIAL” all Discovery Material within its

20

possession, custody, or control that it produces that relates specifically to and/or identifies any

21

named plaintiff in this action.

22

6.

23

CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1

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

24

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

25

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

26

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

27

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

28

original designation is disclosed.
-9-

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

1

6.2

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

2

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

3

for each challenge. To avoid ambiguity as to whether a challenge has been made, the written

4

notice must recite that the challenge to confidentiality is being made in accordance with this

5

specific paragraph of the Stipulated Protective Order. The Parties shall attempt to resolve each

6

challenge in good faith and must begin the process by conferring directly (in voice to voice

7

dialogue; other forms of communication are not sufficient) within 14 days of the date of service

8

of notice. In conferring, the Challenging Party must explain the basis for its belief that the

9

confidentiality designation was not proper and must give the Designating Party an opportunity to

10

review the designated material, to reconsider the circumstances, and, if no change in designation

11

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

12

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

13

or establishes that the Designating Party is unwilling to participate in the meet and confer process

14

in a timely manner.

15

6.3

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

16

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

17

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

18

applicable) within 20 business days of the initial notice of challenge or within 10 business days of

19

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

20

earlier. Each such motion must be accompanied by a competent declaration affirming that the

21

movant has complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed in the preceding paragraph.

22

Failure by the Designating Party to make such a motion including the required declaration within

23

20 business days (or 10 business days, if applicable) shall automatically waive the confidentiality

24

designation for each challenged designation. In addition, the Challenging Party may file a motion

25

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

26

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

27

brought pursuant to this provision must be accompanied by a competent declaration affirming that

28

the movant has complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed by the preceding
- 10 -

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

1

paragraph.

2

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

3

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

4

unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) and/or without a good faith basis may expose

5

the Challenging Party to sanctions. All parties shall continue to afford the material in question

6

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

7

Court rules on the challenge.

9

ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1

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

10

13

When the litigation has been terminated, a Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of

14

Section 15 below (FINAL DISPOSITION).

15

16

in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons authorized under this

13

Court. Pages of transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected

except as permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order; and

16
17
18

(h)

custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information.
7.3

22

CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” shall be disclosed only to:

been designated “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES

20

ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” pursuant to Paragraphs 7.2(d) and

21

7.3(c) first must make a written request to the Designating Party that (1) indicates that the

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

1

a litigation, at any time during the preceding five years and the party to the litigation for whom

2

such work was done, 1 (6) identifies (by name and number of the case, filing date, and location of

3

court) any litigation in connection with which the Expert has offered expert testimony, including

4

through a declaration, report, or testimony at a deposition or trial, during the preceding five years,

5

and (7) identifies any patents or patent applications in which the Expert is identified as an

6

inventor or applicant, is involved in prosecuting or maintaining, or has any pecuniary interest.

7

(b)

A Party that makes a request and provides the information specified in the

8

preceding respective paragraph may disclose the subject Protected Material to the identified

9

Expert 15 days after making its disclosure pursuant to Paragraph 7.4(a) unless, within 14 days of

10

delivering the request, the Party receives a written objection from the Designating Party. Any

11

such objection must set forth in detail the grounds on which it is based.

12

(c)

A Party that receives a timely written objection must meet and confer with

13

the Designating Party (through direct voice to voice dialogue) to try to resolve the matter by

14

agreement within 7 days of the written objection. If no agreement is reached, the Party seeking to

16

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

17

seeking permission from the Court to do so. Any such motion must describe the circumstances

necessary, assess the risk of harm that the disclosure would entail, and suggest any additional

20

means that could be used to reduce that risk. In addition, any such motion must be accompanied

21

by a competent declaration describing the parties’ efforts to resolve the matter by agreement (i.e.,

22

the extent and the content of the meet and confer discussions) and setting forth the reasons

23

24

the disclosure may file a formal opposition with the Court within 14 days of the motion.

25
26
27
28

1

If the Expert believes any of this information is subject to a confidentiality obligation to a
third party, then the Expert should provide whatever information the Expert believes can be
disclosed without violating any confidentiality agreements, and the Party seeking to disclose to
the Expert shall be available to meet and confer with the Designating Party regarding any such
engagement.
- 14 -

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

1

In any such proceeding, the Party opposing disclosure to the Expert shall bear the burden

2

of proving that the risk of harm that the disclosure would entail (under the safeguards proposed)

3

outweighs the Receiving Party’s need to disclose the Protected Material to its Expert.

4

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, Disclosure or Discovery Material may be

5

provided to an Expert only to the extent necessary for such Expert to prepare a written opinion, to

6

prepare to testify, or to assist counsel or the Parties, provided that such Expert is using said

7

Disclosure or Discovery Material solely in connection with this litigation, and further provided

8

that such Expert has previously executed an undertaking in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A,

9

agreeing in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Stipulated Protective Order,

10

consenting to the jurisdiction of this Court for purposes of enforcement of the terms of this

11

Stipulated Protective Order, and agreeing not to disclose or use any Disclosure or Discovery

12

Material for purposes other than those permitted hereunder.

13

8.

14

SOURCE CODE
(a)

To the extent production of source code becomes necessary in this case, a

15

Producing Party may designate source code as “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - SOURCE CODE”

16

if it comprises or includes confidential, proprietary or trade secret source code.

17

(b)

Protected Material designated as “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE

18

CODE” shall be subject to all of the protections afforded to “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

19

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” information including the Prosecution Bar set forth in Paragraph

20

9, and may be disclosed only to the individuals to whom “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

21

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” information may be disclosed, as set forth in Paragraphs 7.3 and

22

7.4.

23

(c)

Any source code produced in discovery shall be made available for inspection, in a

24

format allowing it to be reasonably reviewed and searched, during normal business hours or at

25

other mutually agreeable times, at an office of the Producing Party’s counsel or another location

26

in the Northern District of California designated by the Producing Party’s counsel. The computer

27

containing source code will be made available upon reasonable notice to the Producing Party,

28

which shall not be less than 2 business days in advance of the requested inspection. The source
- 15 -

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

1

code shall be made available for inspection on a secured computer in a secured room without

2

Internet access or network access to other computers, and the Receiving Party shall not copy,

3

remove, or otherwise transfer any portion of the source code onto any recordable media or

4

recordable device. The Producing Party may visually monitor the activities of the Receiving

5

Party’s representatives during any source code review, but only to ensure that there is no

6

unauthorized recording, copying, or transmission of the source code. All persons viewing Source

7

Code shall sign on each day they view Source Code a log that will include the names of persons

8

who enter the secured room to view the Source Code and when they enter and depart.

9

(d)

The Receiving Party may request paper copies of limited portions of source code

10

that are reasonably necessary to prepare court filings, pleadings, expert reports, or other papers, or

11

for use as an exhibit at deposition or trial, but shall not request paper copies for the purposes of

12

reviewing the source code other than electronically as set forth in paragraph (c) in the first

13

instance. The Producing Party shall provide all such source code on non-copyable paper

14

including bates numbers and the label “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - SOURCE CODE.” The

15

Producing Party may challenge the amount of source code requested in hard copy form pursuant

16

to the dispute resolution procedure and timeframes set forth in Paragraph 6 whereby the

17

Producing Party is the “Challenging Party” and the Receiving Party is the “Designating Party” for

18

purposes of dispute resolution. In no case may the Receiving Party request more than 15

19

consecutive pages, or an aggregate of more than 100 pages, of Source Code during the duration of

20

the case without prior written approval of the Producing Party.

21

(e)

The Receiving Party shall maintain a log of all paper copies of the Source Code.

22

The log shall include the names of the reviewers and/or recipients of paper copies and locations

23

where the paper copies are stored. Upon one (1) day’s advance notice to the Receiving Party by

24

the Producing Party, the Receiving Party shall provide a copy of this log to the Producing Party.

25

The Receiving Party shall maintain all paper copies of any printed portions of the source code in a

26

secured, locked area. The Receiving Party shall not create any electronic or other images of the

27

paper copies and shall not convert any of the information contained in the paper copies into any

28

electronic format. The Receiving Party shall only request additional paper copies if such
- 16 -

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

1

additional copies are (1) necessary to prepare court filings, pleadings, or other papers (including a

2

testifying expert’s expert report), (2) necessary for deposition, or (3) otherwise necessary for the

3

preparation of its case. The Receiving Party shall not request paper copies for the purposes of

4

reviewing the source code other than electronically as set forth in paragraph (c) in the first

5

instance.

6

9.

7

PROSECUTION BAR
Absent written consent from the Producing Party, any individual who receives access to

8

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

9

SOURCE CODE” information of the opposing party shall not be involved in the prosecution of

10

patents or patent applications relating to the subject matter of the “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

11

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” information

12

he or she received before any foreign or domestic agency, including the United States Patent and

13

Trademark Office (“the Patent Office”). For purposes of this paragraph, “prosecution” includes

14

directly or indirectly drafting, amending, advising, or otherwise affecting the scope or

15

maintenance of patent claims. Prosecution includes, for example, original prosecution, reissue,

16

and reexamination and other post-grant proceedings. To avoid any doubt, “prosecution” as used

17

in this paragraph does not include representing a party challenging a patent before a domestic or

18

foreign agency (including, but not limited to, a reissue protest, ex parte reexamination or inter

19

partes reexamination). This Prosecution Bar shall begin when access to “HIGHLY

20

CONFIDENTIAL– ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE

21

CODE” information is first received by the affected individual and shall end two (2) years after

22

final termination of this action.

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” or

27

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY ” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL

28

– SOURCE CODE,” that Receiving Party must:
- 17 -

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

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 Stipulated Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of this

6

Stipulated Protective Order; and

7

(c)

8

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” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or

12

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE” before a determination by the court from

13

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

14

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

15

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

16

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

17

another court.

18

10.2

The provisions set forth herein are not intended to, and do not, restrict in any way

19

the procedures set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 45(d)(3) or (f).

20

11.

21
22

A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE PRODUCED IN
THIS LITIGATION
(a)

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

23

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

24

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – SOURCE CODE.” Such

25

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

26

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

27

prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.

28

(b)

In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to
- 18 -

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

1

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

2

agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential information, then the

3

Party shall:

4

1.

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

5

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

6

Party;

7

2.

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

8

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

9

the information requested; and

10

3.

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

11

(c)

If the Non-Party fails to object or seek a protective order from this Court

12

within 28 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may

13

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

14

Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall not produce any information

15

in its possession or control that is subject to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party

16

before a determination by the Court. Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall

17

bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in this Court of its Protected Material.

18

12.

19

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

20

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

21

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

22

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

23

Protected Material, (c) inform the person or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were

24

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

25

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

26

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this paragraph shall be construed as to limit a

27

Designating Party’s rights or remedies relating to the unauthorized disclosure of its Protected

28

Material, or any injury resulting therefrom.

INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE

2

PROTECTED MATERIAL

3

(a)

Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d), in the event that Inadvertent

4

Production Material is produced or disclosed, such inadvertent production or disclosure shall in

5

no way prejudice or otherwise constitute a waiver of, or estoppel as to, any claim of attorney-

6

client privilege, attorney work product protection, or other applicable protection in this case or

7

any other federal or state proceeding, provided that the Producing Party shall notify the Receiving

8

Party in writing of such protection or privilege promptly after the Producing Party discovers such

9

materials have been inadvertently produced.

10

(b)

If a claim of inadvertent production is made, pursuant to this Stipulated Protective

11

Order, with respect to Discovery Material then in the custody of another Party, that Party shall:

12

(i) refrain from any further examination or disclosure of the claimed Inadvertent Production

13

Material; (ii) promptly make a good-faith effort to return the claimed Inadvertent Production

14

Material and all copies thereof (including summaries and excerpts) to counsel for the Producing

15

Party, or destroy all such claimed Inadvertent Production Material (including summaries and

16

excerpts) and certify in writing to that fact; and (iii) not disclose or use the claimed Inadvertent

17

Production Material for any purpose until further order of the Court expressly authorizing such

18

use.

19

(c)

A Party may move the Court for an order compelling production of the Inadvertent

20

Production Material on the ground that it is not, in fact, privileged or protected. The motion shall

21

be filed under seal and shall not assert as a ground for entering such an order the fact or

22

circumstance of the inadvertent production. Any effort to file under seal pursuant to this

23

paragraph must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5 and General Order 62. The Producing Party

24

retains the burden of establishing the privileged or protected nature of any inadvertently disclosed

25

or produced information. While such a motion is pending, the Inadvertent Production Material at

26

issue shall be treated in accordance with Paragraph 13(b) above.

27
28

(d)

If a Party, in reviewing Disclosure or Discovery Material it has received from any

other Party or any non-Party, finds anything the reviewing Party believes in good faith may be
- 20 -

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

1

Inadvertent Production Material, the reviewing Party shall: (i) refrain from any further

2

examination or disclosure of the potentially Inadvertent Production Material; (ii) promptly

3

identify the material in question to the Producing Party (by document number or other equally

4

precise description); and (iii) give the Producing Party seven (7) days to respond as to whether the

5

Producing Party will make a claim of inadvertent production. If the Producing Party makes such

6

a claim, the provisions of Paragraphs 13(a)-(b) above shall apply.

10

MISCELLANEOUS
14.1

Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any person to

seek its modification by the Court in the future.
14.2

Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this Protective

11

Order 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,

13

no Party waives any right to object on any ground to use in evidence of any of the material

14

covered by this Protective Order.

15

14.3

Export Control. The Protected Material disclosed by the Producing Party may

16

contain technical data subject to export control laws and therefore the release of such technical

17

data to foreign persons or nationals in the United States or elsewhere may be restricted.

18

The Receiving Party shall take measures necessary to ensure compliance with applicable export

19

control laws, including confirming that no unauthorized foreign person has access to such

20

technical data. No Protected Material may leave the territorial boundaries of the United States of

21

America. Without limitation, this prohibition extends to Protected Material (including copies) in

22

physical and electronic form. The viewing of Protected Material through electronic means

23

outside the territorial limits of the United States of America is similarly prohibited.

24

14.4

Filing Protected Material. Without written permission from the Designating Party

25

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

26

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

27

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

28

Material may only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the
- 21 -

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)

1

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

2

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

3

privileged, protectable as a trade secret, or otherwise entitled to protection under the law. If a

4

Receiving Party’s request to file Protected Material under seal pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-

5

5(d) and General Order 62 is denied by the Court, then the Receiving Party may file the Protected

6

Material in the public record pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(e) unless otherwise instructed by

7

the Court. If a Receiving Party believes that only a portion of Designated Material is Protected

8

Material, the Receiving Party and Producing Party shall meet and confer in good faith concerning

9

the redaction of only the Protected Material prior to filing with the Court.

10

14.5

Right to Seek Further Protection. Nothing in this Stipulated Protective Order shall

11

be construed to preclude any Party from asserting in good faith that certain Protected Materials

12

require additional protections. The Parties shall meet and confer to agree upon the terms of such

13

additional protection.

14

14.6

Additional Signatories. Any Party or Non-Party to this Proceeding who has not

15

executed this Stipulated Protective Order as of the time it is presented to the Court for signature

16

may thereafter become a Party to this Stipulated Protective Order by its counsel’s signing and

17

dating a copy thereof and filing the same with the Court, and serving copies of such signed and

18

dated copy upon the other Parties to this Stipulated Protective Order.

19

14.7

Agreement Regarding Privilege Log. The parties need not identify, on any

20

privilege or work product log in response to document requests, privileged or protected

21

documents postdating the filing of this action, December 30, 2013. Privilege logs shall identify

22

the documents or information withheld with sufficient specificity to identify the material withheld

23

and the basis for the claimed privilege or protection. If appropriate, the parties may agree that

24

certain categories of documents or information may be logged by category rather than

25

individually. For email strings, the parties are permitted to use only one entry on their respective

26

privilege logs to identify withheld emails that contain a string of emails provided, however, that

27

the entry notes the presence of a string, beginning and ending dates, all of the authors and

28

recipients, and a description of all the subject matters discussed.

2

COMMUNICATIONS WITH TESTIFYING EXPERTS
Testifying experts shall not be subject to discovery of any draft of their reports in this case

3

and such draft reports, notes, outlines, or any other writings leading up to an issued report(s) in

4

this litigation are exempt from discovery. In addition, all communications between counsel for a

5

party and that party’s testifying expert, and all materials generated by a testifying expert with

6

respect to that person’s work, are exempt from discovery unless they identify facts, data or

7

assumptions relied upon by the expert in forming any opinions in this litigation and such

8

information is not already disclosed in the expert’s report. The Parties agree that this section in

9

no way limits protections against discovery of testifying expert draft reports and communications

10

with counsel provided by Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(4). The Parties further agree that,

11

in the event a current of former employee of a Party is designated as a testifying expert, this

12

section in no way limits the discoverability of material that would have otherwise been

13

discoverable had the current or former employer not been designated as a testifying expert.

14

16.

15

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

16

Receiving Party must return all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material.

17

As used in this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations,

18

summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material.

19

Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving Party must submit a

20

written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same person or entity, to the

21

Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that (1) identifies (by category, where appropriate) all

22

the Protected Material that was returned or destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has

23

not retained any copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or

24

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

25

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

26

legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial exhibits, expert reports, attorney work

27

product, and consultant and expert work product, even if such materials contain Protected

28
- 23 -

AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. C 13-05996-PJH (MEJ)
