material that is Confidential as defined in Section I., D. above.

17

The initial failure to designate information or documents as CONFIDENTIAL in accordance

18

with this Stipulated Protective Order shall not preclude the Producing Party from, at a later date,

designating any information or documents as CONFIDENTIAL. The Producing Party may, by

20

written notice to counsel of record for the receiving Party, designate previously produced

21

information or documents as CONFIDENTIAL, which it had inadvertently failed to designate.

22

Upon receipt of such notice, the receiving Party shall promptly mark its copies of the information or

23

documents so designated, and shall, thereafter, treat the information and documents as if it had been

24

designated CONFIDENTIAL and shall restrict the disclosure or use of the information or

25

documents in accordance with this Stipulated Protective Order. If the information or documents

26

have previously been disclosed to non-parties, the Parties shall take reasonable steps to obtain all

27

such previously disclosed information or documents and advise the non-parties to treat the

seeking to remove the designation as CONFIDENTIAL, and the Court shall make an independent

22

determination as to whether or not any given document or information is Confidential and/or

23

properly redacted based upon facts then existing, and in so doing, the Court shall not be bound by

24

any Party’s designation; provided, however, that such documents or discovery material shall be

25

DESIGNATED INFORMATION AND DOCUMENTS IN THE RECORD OF THE
ACTION

17

Confidential information or documents may be offered in evidence at any hearing or the trial

18

in the Action, provided that the Parties have met, conferred and agreed in advance of the hearing

19

and/or trial as to how the information or documents will be used, including, by way of example,

20

requesting that the Court designate that portion of the transcript containing the Parties’ discussion of

21

the Confidential information or documents as Confidential and maintain it under seal, only to be

22

produced to the Parties’ at their request. If the Parties cannot agree about how the information or

23
24
25
26

documents will be used during a hearing, before or at the time of the hearing, the Party designating
such Confidential status may move the Court for an order that the evidence be received in camera
or under other conditions to prevent unnecessary disclosure. If such a motion is made regarding
evidence to be introduced at the time of trial, then the Party designating such Confidential status

27
shall notify opposing counsel and the Court of its intent to make the motion sufficiently in advance
28

31986446v1

of and outside the presence of the jury so that counsel has the opportunity to object to the evidence

2

and/or an opportunity to seek appropriate protection from the Court outside the presence of the jury

3

and before the information or documents are offered into evidence in open court. The Court will

4

then determine whether the proffered evidence should continue to be treated as Confidential and, if

5

so, what protection, if any, may be afforded to such information at the hearing.

NO WAIVER
Neither the provisions of this Stipulated Protective Order nor any disclosure by any Party

pursuant hereto shall constitute a waiver of any attorney-client, work product or joint
defense/common interest privilege, including the protections afforded by any applicable Rules of
Federal Civil Procedure, the Rules of Professional Conduct, or by common law.

The terms and

provisions of this Stipulated Protective Order shall not be deemed or interpreted to require the

10
disclosure or production by any party hereto of any documents or information otherwise subject to a

valid claim of attorney-client, work product, or other privilege or protection against disclosure in
discovery.
No Confidential information or documents shall lose such status under this Stipulated
Protective Order as the result of the use of such information or documents in any hearing, trial, or
other court proceeding in this Action, provided that such use is consistent with the terms of this

17

Stipulated Protective Order. Counsel to the Parties in the Action shall confer at least five (5) days

18

before any such hearing, trial, or other court proceeding in order to work out any objections to the

19

use of any Confidential information or documents in such court proceeding and to make such

20

amendments to this Stipulated Protective Order which the Parties agree are necessary to assure the

21

continued confidentiality of such information.

22

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all objections as to admissibility

23

in evidence of the discovery material subject to this Stipulated Protective Order are reserved and are

24

not waived by any terms of this Stipulated Protective Order. The use of Confidential information

25

and documents as evidence at trial shall be subject to this Stipulated Protective Order unless

26

otherwise agreed to by the Parties or modified by the Court.

2

The inadvertent disclosure of Confidential information and documents shall not, under any
circumstances, be deemed a waiver, in whole or in part, of any Party’s claims of confidentiality.

3

The inadvertent production of any document or other information during discovery in the

4

Action shall be without prejudice to any claim that such material is privileged, prohibited or

5

protected from disclosure as privileged or work product, and no Party shall be held to have waived

6
7
8
9

any rights by reason of such inadvertent production.
XIII. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED MATERIALS
A.

Inadvertent production of privileged material shall be dealt with in accordance with

Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b)(5). The inadvertent production of information that is subject to a claim of any

10
privilege or other protection as trial-preparation material shall not constitute a waiver of any

privilege or protection, provided that – consistent with the provisions of Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b)(5) –
the Producing Party notifies the receiving Party in writing of the inadvertent production as soon as
practicable following the Producing Party’s discovery of the inadvertent production.
B.

Following the Producing Party’s written notice of the inadvertent production, the

receiving Party shall promptly return, destroy, or delete from its databases all copies of the specified

17

information, not rely upon or make use of the inadvertently produced materials and shall make

18

reasonable efforts to retrieve the information if the receiving Party previously provided the

19

information to third parties.

20

C.

The receiving Party shall not assert a claim or argument in this or any other court or

21

legal proceeding that the Producing Party’s act of inadvertently producing the information

22

constituted a waiver of the Producing Party’s privilege or other protection over the information.

23

D.

If there is a disagreement as to whether the specified information is privileged or

24

subject to protection, the Producing Party may present the information under seal to the Court for a

25

determination. Until the Court makes a determination of the privileged or protected status of the

26

information, the receiving Party shall not use in any way (including, but not limited to, using the

27

information in depositions or at trial) nor disclose the information to other Parties.

NON-TERMINATION
A.

The termination of proceedings in the Action shall not relieve the Parties from the

3

obligation of maintaining the confidentiality of all information and documents produced and

4

designated pursuant to this Stipulated Protective Order, unless the Parties otherwise agree or the

5

Court orders or permits otherwise. Upon the final disposition of the Action, all information and

6
7

documents, including any summaries or abstracts of materials, however maintained, shall be kept
completely confidential. Outside Counsel for either Party may use the Confidential information and
documents only for the purpose of defending ethical charges or professional malpractice charges,
and may not use Confidential information or documents in any subsequent lawsuit.
