20 I. PURPOSE AND LIMITATIONS

21 Discovery in this Action is likely to involve production of confidential or

22 private information for which special protection from public disclosure and from use

23 for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be warranted.

24 Accordingly, the Parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to enter the

25 following Stipulated Protective Order (hereafter “this Order”). The Parties

26 acknowledge that this Order does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or

27 responses to discovery and that the protection it affords from public disclosure and

1 treatment under the applicable legal principles.

2 II. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT

3 This Action is likely to involve confidential information derived from

4 personnel records, investigatory documents, and other materials subject to privacy

5 protections for which special protection from public disclosure and from use for any

6 purpose other than prosecution of this Action is warranted. Limiting disclosure of

7 these documents to the context of this litigation as provided herein will, accordingly,

8 further important law enforcement objectives and interests, including the safety of

9 personnel and the public, as well as individual privacy rights of plaintiff, the

10 individual defendants, and third parties. Such confidential materials and

11 information consist of, among other things, materials entitled to privileges and/or

12 protections under the following: the United States Constitution, First Amendment;

13 the California Constitution, Article I, Section 1; California Penal Code §§ 832.5,

14 832.7, and 832.8; California Evidence Code §§ 1040 and 1043 et seq.; the Privacy

15 Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. § 552a; Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act

16 of 1996 (HIPAA), Public Law 104-191, decisional law relating to such provisions;

17 and information otherwise generally unavailable to the public, or which may be

18 privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure under state or federal statutes,

19 court rules, case decisions, or common law. Defendants also contend that such

20 confidential materials and information consists of materials entitled to the Official

21 Information Privilege.

22 Confidential information with respect to the Defendants may include but is

23 not limited to: personnel files; internal investigative files and documents; email and

24 written correspondence records; and policies and procedures that are kept from the

25 public in the ordinary course of business, as well as other items subject to the

26 Official Information Privilege and other privileges. Confidential information with

27 respect to Plaintiff may include the following: psychological and medical notes,

1 The Parties reserve the right to challenge a designation of confidentiality

2 pursuant to the terms set forth under Paragraph 8 of this Order.

3 Accordingly, to expedite the flow of information, to facilitate the prompt

4 resolution of disputes over confidentiality of discovery materials, to adequately

5 protect information the Parties are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure that the

6 Parties are permitted to reasonably use such material in preparation for and in

7 conduct of trial, to address their handling at the end of the litigation, and serve the

8 ends of justice, a protective order for such information is justified in this matter. It

9 is the intent of the Parties that information will not be designated as confidential for

10 tactical reasons and that nothing be so designated without a good faith belief that it

11 has been maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and there is good cause

12 why it should not be part of the public record of this case.

13 III. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF PROCEDURE FOR FILING UNDER

14 SEAL

15 The Parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 14.3, below, that this

16 Order does not entitle them to file confidential information under seal. Local Civil

17 Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and the standards that will

18 be applied when a Party seeks permission from the Court to file materials under

19 seal.

20 There is a strong presumption that the public has a right of access to judicial

21 proceedings and records in civil cases. In connection with non-dispositive motions,

22 good cause must be shown to support a filing under seal. See Kamakana v. City and

23 County of Honolulu, 447 F.3d 1172, 1176 (9th Cir. 2006), Phillips v. Gen. Motors

24 Corp., 307 F.3d 1206, 1210-11 (9th Cir. 2002), Makar-Welbon v. Sony Electrics,

25 Inc., 187 F.R.D. 576, 577 (E.D. Wis. 1999) (even stipulated protective orders

26 require good cause showing), and a specific showing of good cause or compelling

27 reasons with proper evidentiary support and legal justification, must be made with

1 designation of materials as “CONFIDENTIAL” does not— without the submission

2 of competent evidence by declaration, establishing that the materials sought to be

3 filed under seal qualifies as confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable—

4 constitute good cause. Further, if a Party requests sealing related to a dispositive

5 motion or trial, then compelling reasons, not only good cause, for the sealing must

6 be shown, and the relief sought shall be narrowly tailored to serve the specific

7 interest(s) to be protected. See Pintos v. Pacific Creditors Ass’n, 605 F.3d 665, 677-

8 79 (9th Cir. 2010). For each item or type of information, document, or thing sought

9 to be filed or introduced under seal in connection with a dispositive motion or trial,

10 the Party seeking protection must articulate compelling reasons, supported by

11 specific facts and legal justification, for the requested sealing order. Again,

12 competent evidence supporting the application to file documents under seal must be

13 provided by declaration.

14 Any document that is not confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable in

15 its entirety will not be filed under seal if the confidential portions can be redacted.

16 If documents can be redacted, then a redacted version for public viewing, omitting

17 only the confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable portions of the document,

18 shall be filed. Any application that seeks to file documents under seal in their

19 entirety should include an explanation of why redaction is not feasible.

11 Protected Material (as defined above), but also (1) any information copied or

12 extracted from Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or

13 compilations of Protected Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or

14 presentations by Parties or their Counsel (as defined by Sections 4.8 and 4.10) that

15 might reveal Protected Material.

16 Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by the orders of the

17 trial judge. This Order does not govern the use of Protected Material at trial.

18 VI. DURATION

19 Once a case proceeds to trial, information that was designated as

20 “CONFIDENTIAL” or maintained pursuant to this Protective Order used or

21 introduced as an exhibit at trial becomes public and will be presumptively available

22 to all members of the public, including the press, unless compelling reasons

23 supported by specific factual findings to proceed otherwise are made to the trial

24 judge in advance of the trial. See Kamakana, 447 F.3d at 1180-81 (distinguishing

25 “good cause” showing for sealing documents produced in discovery from

26 “compelling reasons” standard when merit-related documents are part of court

27 record). Accordingly, the terms of this Protective Order do not extend beyond the

1 VII. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL

2 7.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection.

3 Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection

4 under this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific materials

5 that qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate

6 for protection only those parts of materials, documents, items or oral or written

7 communications that qualify so that other portions of the materials, documents,

8 items or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept

9 unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.

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

11 that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper

12 purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to impose

13 unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Designating

14 Party to sanctions.

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

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

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

18 7.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in

19 this Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 7.2(a) below), or as otherwise

20 stipulated or ordered, disclosure or discovery materials that qualifies for protection

21 under this Order must be clearly so designated before the materials are disclosed or

22 produced.

23 Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

24 (a) For information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic

25 documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial

26 proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend

27 “CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter “CONFIDENTIAL legend”), to each page that

1 protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s)

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

3 A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection

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

5 which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and

6 before the designation, all materials made available for inspection shall be deemed

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

8 wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents,

9 or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing

10 the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL

11 legend” to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion of the

12 material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly

13 identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the

14 margins).

15 (b) For testimony given in depositions, that the Designating Party identify

16 the disclosure or discovery materials on the record, before the close of the

17 deposition, all protected testimony.

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

19 any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the

20 exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the legend

21 “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information warrants

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

23 portion(s).

24 7.3 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent

25 failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive

26 the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material.

27 Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable

1 Order.

2 VIII. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS

3 8.1 Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a

4 designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s

5 Scheduling Order.

6 8.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the meet and

7 confer process outlined in Local Rule 37.1, et seq.

8 8.3 Joint Stipulation. Any challenge submitted to the Court shall be via a

9 joint stipulation pursuant to Local Rule 37-2.

10 8.4 The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on

11 the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper

12 purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other

13 parties) may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating

14 Party has waived or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all Parties shall

15 continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to which it is

16 entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the Court rules on the

17 challenge.

18 IX. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

19 9.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is

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

21 Action only for prosecuting, defending or attempting to settle this Action. Such

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

23 conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a

24 Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of Section XV, infra.

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

26 location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons

27 authorized under this Order.

1 otherwise ordered by the Court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a

2 Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated

5 as employees of said General Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably necessary

6 to disclose the information for this Action;

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

8 Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action;

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

13 (d) the court and its personnel;

14 (e) court reporters and their staff;

15 (f) professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and Professional

16 Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have

17 signed Exhibit A.

18 (g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a

19 custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information;

20 (h) deposition witnesses and their attorneys, in the Action to whom

21 disclosure is reasonably necessary, provided the following: (1) the deposing party

22 requests that the witness sign Exhibit A; and (2) the deposing party makes clear that

23 the witness will not be permitted to keep any confidential information unless they

24 sign Exhibit A, unless otherwise agreed by the Designating Party or ordered by the

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

26 reveal Protected Material may be separately bound by the court reporter and may

27 not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted under this Order; and

1 mutually agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement discussions.

2 9.3. Additional Provisions Applicable to Pro Se Inmate Sulieto G.

3 Domingo, Jr. (“Plaintiff”)

4 Plaintiff shall review, but not retain possession of, all documents designated

5 as confidential, and produced by Defendants Deputy Christopher, Deputy

6 Sepulveda, Deputy Meng, Nurse Gulseth, and Nurse Oquendo (“Defendants”), in

7 this Action. (See Manley v. Zimmer, 2013 5592328 (D.Nev. Oct. 9, 2013)

8 [permitting pro se inmate to review, but not retain, redacted documents in his cell;

9 and with the Department of Corrections warden pursuant to the NDOC procedures]).

10 Domingo shall review all documents designated as confidential and produced

11 by Defendants in this Action in accordance with the 2020 California Department of

12 Corrections and Rehabilitation, Department Operations Manual (“DOM”)

13 procedures (esp. Chapter 1, Article 15—Information Practices and Article 18—

14 Legal Matters).

15 Following Plaintiff’s review of documents designated as confidential, he shall

16 relinquish said documents to the appropriate California Department of Corrections

17 and Rehabilitation and/or custody personnel for safekeeping.

18 X. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED

19 PRODUCED IN OTHER LITIGATION

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

21 that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as

22 “CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:

23 (a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification

24 shall include a copy of the subpoena or court order;

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

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

27 subpoena or order is subject to this Order. Such notification shall include a copy of

1 (c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued

2 by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected.

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

4 the subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this

5 action as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the

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

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

8 protection in that court of its confidential material and nothing in these provisions

9 should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action

10 to disobey a lawful directive from another court.

11 XI. A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE

12 PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION

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

14 Non-Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information

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

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

17 construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.

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

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

20 subject to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s

21 confidential information, then the Party shall:

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

23 that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality

24 agreement with a Non-Party;

25 (2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of this Order in this

26 Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably specific description of

27 the information requested; and

1 Party, if requested.

2 (c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this Court within

3 fourteen (14) days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the

4 Receiving Party may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive

5 to the discovery request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the

6 Receiving Party shall not produce any information in its possession or control that is

7 subject to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination

8 by the court. Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the

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

10 XII. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

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

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

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

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

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

16 whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Order, and (d)

17 request such person or persons to execute Exhibit A.

18 XIII. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE

19 PROTECTED MATERIAL

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

21 inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection,

22 the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil

23 Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify whatever

24 procedure may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production

25 without prior privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and

26 (e), insofar as the Parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a

27 communication or information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work

1 stipulation to the court.

2 XIV. MISCELLANEOUS

3 14.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any

4 person to seek its modification by the Court in the future.

5 14.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this

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

7 producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this Order.

8 Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any ground to use in evidence any

9 of the material covered by this Order.

10 14.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any

11 Protected Material must comply with Local Civil Rule 79-5. Protected Material

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

13 specific Protected Material at issue. If a Party’s request to file Protected Material

14 under seal is denied by the Court, then the Receiving Party may file the information

15 in the public record unless otherwise instructed by the Court.

16 XV. FINAL DISPOSITION

17 After the final disposition of this Action, as defined in Section VI, supra,

18 within 60 days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party

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

20 (See Buchanan v. Santos, 2011 WL 2112475 at *5 (E.D.Cal. May 26, 2011) [case

21 involving a protective order requiring a pro se inmate litigant to return the records

22 and information disclosed by the defendant custody officer at the conclusion of the

23 Action].) As used in this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies,

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

25 any of the Protected Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or

26 destroyed, the Receiving Party must submit a written certification to the Producing

27 Party (and, if not the same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day

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

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

3 reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this

4 provision, Counsel are entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion

5 papers, trial, deposition, and hearing transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence,

6 deposition and trial exhibits, expert reports, attorney work-product, and consultant

7 and expert work product, even if such materials contain Protected Material. Any

8 such archival copies that contain or constitute Protected Material remain subject to

9 this Order as set forth in Section VI, supra.

10 XVI. VIOLATION

11 Any violation of this Order may be punished by appropriate measures

12 including, without limitation, contempt proceedings and/or monetary sanctions.
