STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. 4:17-CV-00002-BMM
437223 v1

1

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

2

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

3

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

4

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

5

following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does not

6

confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and that the

7

protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends only to the limited information

8

or items that are entitled to confidential treatment under the applicable legal principles.

9

The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this Stipulated

10

Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information under seal; Civil

11

Local Rule 5.1 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and the standards that will

12

be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to file material under seal.

SCOPE

27
28

3
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. 4:17-CV-00002-BMM

1

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

2

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

3

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

4

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

5

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

6

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

7

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

8

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

9

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

10

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

11

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

12

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

13

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

14

agreement or order.

15

4.

DURATION

16

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

17

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

18

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

19

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

20

judgment herein after the completion and exhaustion of all appeals, rehearings, remands,

21

trials, or reviews of this action, including the time limits for filing any motions or

22

applications for extension of time pursuant to applicable law.

23

5.

24

DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
5.1

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

25

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

26

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

27
28

4
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. 4:17-CV-00002-BMM

1

appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for protection only those

2

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

3

that other portions of the material, documents, items, or communications for which

4

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

5

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

6

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

7

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

8

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

9

sanctions.

10

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

11

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

12

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

13

5.2

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

14

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

15

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

16

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

17

Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

18

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

19

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

20

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

21

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

22

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

23

appropriate markings in the margins).

24

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

25

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

26

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

27
28

5
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. 4:17-CV-00002-BMM

1

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

2

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

3

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

4

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

5

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

6

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

7

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

8

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

9

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

10

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

11

other proceeding, all protected testimony.

12

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

13

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

14

the container or containers in which the information or item is stored the legend

15

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

16

protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected

17

portion(s).

18

5.3

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

19

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

20

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

21

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

22

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

23

6.

24

CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
6.1

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

25

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

26

confidentiality designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable, substantial unfairness,

27
28

6
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. 4:17-CV-00002-BMM

1

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

2

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

3

mount a challenge promptly after the original designation is disclosed.

4

6.2

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

5

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

6

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

7

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

8

with this specific paragraph of the Protective Order. The parties shall attempt to resolve

9

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

10

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

11

date of service of notice. In conferring, the Challenging Party must explain the basis for its

12

belief that the confidentiality designation was not proper and must give the Designating

13

Party an opportunity to review the designated material, to reconsider the circumstances,

14

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

15

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

16

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

17

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

18

6.3

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

19

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

20

under Civil Local Rule 7 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 5.1, if applicable)

21

within 21 days of the initial notice of challenge or within 14 days of the parties agreeing

22

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

23

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

24

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

25

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

26

within 21 days (or 14 days, if applicable) shall automatically waive the confidentiality

27
28

7
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. 4:17-CV-00002-BMM

1

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

2

motion challenging a confidentiality designation at any time if there is good cause for

3

doing so, including a challenge to the designation of a deposition transcript or any portions

4

thereof. Any motion brought pursuant to this provision must be accompanied by a

5

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

6

requirements imposed by the preceding paragraph.

7

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

8

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

9

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

10

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

11

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

12

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

13

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

14

challenge.

15

7.

16

ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
7.1

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

17

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

18

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

19

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

20

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

21

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

22

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

23

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

24

this Order.

25
26

7.2

Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless otherwise

27
28

8
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. 4:17-CV-00002-BMM

1

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

2

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

3

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

4

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

5

disclose the information for this litigation and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and

6

Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A;

7

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

8

Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who

9

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

10

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

11

is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and

12

Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);

13

(d) the court and its personnel;

14

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

15

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

16

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

17

(Exhibit A);

18

(f)

during their depositions, witnesses in the action to whom disclosure is

19

reasonably necessary and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be

20

Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise agreed by the Designating Party or ordered by the

21

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

22

Protected Material must be separately bound by the court reporter and may not be

23

disclosed to anyone except as permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order.

24
25

(g)

the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a

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

PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN

2

OTHER LITIGATION

3

If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation that

4

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

5

“CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:

6
7

(a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall
include a copy of the subpoena or court order;

8

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

9

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

10

order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of this

11

Stipulated Protective Order; and

12
13

(c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued by
the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected.

14

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

15

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

16

“CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the subpoena or order

17

issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s permission. The Designating

18

Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in that court of its

19

confidential material – and nothing in these provisions should be construed as authorizing

20

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

21

court.

22

9.

23

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

24

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

25

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

26

Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the remedies and relief

27
28

10
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. 4:17-CV-00002-BMM

1

provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be construed as prohibiting a

2

Non-Party from seeking additional protections.

3

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

4

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

5

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

6

then the Party shall:

7

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

8

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

9

Non-Party;

10

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

11

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

12

description of the information requested; and

13
14

(3) make the information requested available for inspection by the NonParty.

15

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

16

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

17

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

18

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

19

information in its possession or control that is subject to the confidentiality agreement with

20

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

21

the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in this court of its

22

Protected Material.

23

10.

UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

24

If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed

25

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

26

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

27
28

11
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. 4:17-CV-00002-BMM

1

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

2

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

3

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

4

person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” that is

5

attached hereto as Exhibit A.

6

11.

INADVERTENT

PRODUCTION

OF

PRIVILEGED

OR

OTHERWISE

7

PROTECTED

8

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

9

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

10

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

11

This provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure may be established in an e-

12

discovery order that provides for production without prior privilege review. Pursuant to

13

Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and (e), insofar as the parties reach an agreement on the

14

effect of disclosure of a communication or information covered by the attorney-client

15

privilege or work product protection, the parties may incorporate their agreement in the

16

stipulated protective order submitted to the court.

17

12.

18
19
20

MATERIAL

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

21

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

22

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

23

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

24

evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order.

25

12.3 Filing Protected Material. Without written permission from the Designating

26

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

27
28

12
STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
CASE NO. 4:17-CV-00002-BMM

1

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

2

under seal any Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 5.1. Protected

3

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

4

the specific Protected Material at issue. Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 5.1, a sealing order

5

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

6

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

7

13.

FINAL DISPOSITION

8

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

9

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

10

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

11

abstracts, compilations, summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of

12

the Protected Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the

13

Receiving Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the

14

same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that (1) identifies

15

(by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or destroyed

16

and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies, abstracts,

17

compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or capturing any of the

18

Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel are entitled to retain an

19

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

20

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

21

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

22

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

23

remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION).
