“Parties”), by and through their counsel of record, as follows:
WHEREAS, documents and information have been and may be sought, produced or
exhibited by and among the parties to this action relating to trade secrets, confidential research,
development, technology or other proprietary information belonging to the defendants and/or
personal income, credit and other confidential information of Plaintiff.
THEREFORE, an Order of this Court protecting such confidential information shall be
and hereby is made by this Court on the following terms:
1.
This Order shall govern the use, handling and disclosure of all documents,
10
testimony or information produced or given in this action which are designated to be subject to
11
this Order in accordance with the terms hereof.
12
2.
Any party or non-party producing or filing documents or other materials in this
13
action may designate such materials and the information contained therein subject to this Order
14
by typing or stamping on the front of the document, or on the portion(s) of the document for
15
which confidential treatment is designated, “Confidential.”
16
3.
To the extent any motions, briefs, pleadings, deposition transcripts, or other
17
papers to be filed with the Court incorporate documents or information subject to this Order, the
18
party filing such papers shall designate such materials, or portions thereof, as “Confidential,” and
19
shall file them with the clerk under seal; provided, however, that a copy of such filing having the
20
confidential information deleted therefrom may be made part of the public record. Any party
21
filing any document under seal must comply with the requirements of Local Rules.
22

4.
All documents, transcripts, or other materials subject to this Order, and all
information derived therefrom (including, but not limited to, all testimony, deposition, or
otherwise, that refers, reflects or otherwise discusses any information designated Confidential
hereunder), shall not be used, directly or indirectly, by any person, including Plaintiff, Experian,
Ditech and Trans Union, for commercial or competitive purposes or for any purpose whatsoever
other than solely for the preparation and trial of this action in accordance with the provisions of
[Proposed] Stipulated Protective Order - 2

this Order.
5.
All depositions or portions of depositions taken in this action that contain
confidential information may be designated as “Confidential” and thereby obtain the protections
accorded other confidential information. The parties shall have twenty-one (21) days from the
date a deposition is taken, or fourteen (14) days from the date a deposition transcript is received,
whichever date is greater, to serve a notice to all parties designating portions as “Confidential.”
Until such time, all deposition testimony shall be treated as confidential information. To the
extent any designations are made on the record during the deposition, the designating party need
10
not serve a notice re-designating those portions of the transcript as confidential information.
11
Any party may challenge any such designation in accordance with Paragraph 14 of this Order.
12
6.
Except with the prior written consent of the individual or entity designating a
13
document or portions of a document as “Confidential,” or pursuant to prior Order after notice,
14
any document, transcript or pleading given “Confidential” treatment under this Order, and any
15
information contained in, or derived from any such materials (including but not limited to, all
16
deposition testimony that refers, reflects or otherwise discusses any information designated
17
confidential hereunder) may not be disclosed other than in accordance with this Order and may
18
not be disclosed to any person other than: (a) the Court and its officers; (b) parties to this
19
litigation; (c) counsel for the parties, whether retained counsel or in-house counsel and
20
employees of counsel assigned to assist such counsel in the preparation of this litigation; (d) fact
21
witnesses subject to a proffer to the Court or a stipulation of the parties that such witnesses need
22

28
to know such information; (e) present or former employees of the producing party in connection
with their depositions in this action (provided that no former employees shall be shown
documents prepared after the date of his or her departure); and (f) experts specifically retained as
consultants or expert witnesses in connection with this litigation.
7.
Documents produced pursuant to this Order shall not be made available to any
person designated in Subparagraph 6 (f) unless he or she shall have first read this Order, agreed

to be bound by its terms, and signed the attached Declaration of Compliance.
8.
Third parties who are the subject of discovery requests, subpoenas or depositions
in this case may take advantage of the provisions of this Protective Order by providing the
parties with written notice that they intend to comply with and be bound by the terms of this
Protective Order.
9.
All persons receiving any or all documents produced pursuant to this Order shall
be advised of their confidential nature. All persons to whom confidential information and/or
documents are disclosed are hereby enjoined from disclosing same to any person except as
10
provided herein and are further enjoined from using same except in the preparation for and trial
11
of the above-captioned action between the named parties thereto.
12
reviewing such confidential documents, information or transcript shall disseminate or disclose
13
them to any person other than those described above in Paragraph 6 and for the purposes
14
specified, and in no event, shall such person make any other use of such document or transcript.
15
16
17
10.
No person receiving or
Nothing in this Order shall prevent a party from using at trial any information or
materials designated “Confidential.”
11.
This Order has been agreed to by the parties to facilitate discovery and the
18
production of relevant evidence in this action.
19
designation of any information, document, or the like as “Confidential,” nor the failure to make
20
such designation, shall constitute evidence with respect to any issue in this action.

12.
Neither the entry of this Order, nor the
Inadvertent failure to designate any document, transcript, or other materials
“Confidential” will not constitute a waiver of an otherwise valid claim of confidentiality
pursuant to this Order, so long as a claim of confidentiality is promptly asserted after discovery
of the inadvertent failure. If a party designates a document as “Confidential” after it was initially
produced, the receiving party, on notification of the designation, must make a reasonable effort
to assure that the document is treated in accordance with the provisions of this Order, and upon
request from the producing party certify that the designated documents have been maintained as

13.
If any party objects to any designation of any materials as “Confidential,” the
parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve such objection by agreement. If the parties cannot
resolve their objections by agreement, the party objecting to the designation may seek the
assistance of the Court. A party shall have thirty (30) days from the time a “Confidential”
designation is made to challenge the propriety of the designation. Until an objection has been
resolved by agreement of counsel or by order of the Court, the materials shall be treated as
Confidential and subject to this Order.
14.
10
Within sixty (60) days after the final termination of this litigation, all documents,
11
transcripts, or other materials afforded confidential treatment pursuant to this Order, including
12
any extracts, summaries or compilations taken therefrom, but excluding any materials which in
13
the good faith judgment of counsel are work product materials, shall be returned to the Producing
14
Party. In lieu of return, the parties may agree to destroy the documents, to the extent practicable.
15.
15
16
The designating party shall have the burden of proving that any document
designated as CONFIDENTIAL is entitled to such protection.
17
16.
Nothing herein shall affect or restrict the rights of any party with respect to its
18
own documents or to the information obtained or developed independently of documents,
19
transcripts and materials afforded confidential treatment pursuant to this Order.
