WAL-MART ASSOCIATES, INC., a

1 Disclosure and discovery activity in this action are likely to involve production of confidential,
2 proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public disclosure and from use for
3 any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be warranted.
4 Plaintiff Lucinda Thompson-Phillips and Defendant Wal-Mart Associates, Inc. (collectively, the
5 “Parties” and individually a “Party”) assert in support of their request that protection of the identified
6 categories of confidential information as listed in Section 2 is necessary because this is an employment
7 law action brought under the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, California Government
8 Code section 12940, et seq. This action is likely to involve medical, psychiatric, personal and/or
9 proprietary information for which special protection from public disclosure and from use for any purpose
10 other than prosecution of this action is warranted. Such confidential and proprietary materials and
11 information consist of, among other things, confidential health information, psychiatric information,
12 personal information, information implicating privacy rights of third parties, and/or information
13 otherwise generally unavailable to the public, or which may be privileged or otherwise protected from
14 disclosure under state or federal statutes, court rules, case decisions, or common law. Accordingly, to
15 expedite the flow of information, to facilitate the prompt resolution of disputes over confidentiality of
16 discovery materials, to adequately protect information the parties are entitled to keep confidential, to
17 ensure that the parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses of such material in preparation for and in
18 the conduct of trial, to address their handling at the end of the litigation, and serve the ends of justice, a
19 protective order for such information is justified in this matter. It is the intent of the parties that
20 information will not be designated as confidential for tactical reasons and that nothing be so designated
21 without a good faith belief that it has been maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and there is
22 good cause why it should not be part of the public record of this case.
23 The parties acknowledge that this Stipulated Protective Order (“Order”) does not confer blanket
24 protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection it affords from public
25 disclosure and use extends only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential
26 treatment under the applicable legal principles. The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Paragraph
27 23, below, that this Order does not entitle them to file confidential information under seal; Civil Local
1 party seeks permission from the Court to file material under seal. Accordingly, the parties have agreed
2 to and have submitted to the Court, and for good cause shown the Court hereby enters, the following
3 Order:
1. This Order shall govern the disclosure of materials designated as Confidential Material
4
5 in this litigation. Confidential Material, as used in this Order, shall refer to any document or item
6 designated as Confidential or Highly Confidential – Attorneys’ Eyes Only, including but not limited to,
7 documents or items produced during discovery, all copies thereof, and the information contained in such
8
material. Nothing in this Order shall require any party to produce any specific documents or category of
9
documents which a party deems inappropriate for production.
10
Definitions of Confidential Material
11
2. Confidential Material, as used in this Order, consists of the following materials and
12
13 categories of materials, to the extent they are designated as such by counsel for the Designating Party:
14
a. Materials relating to any privileged, confidential, or nonpublic
15
information, including, but not limited to, trade secrets, research, design,
16
development, financial, technical, marketing, planning, personal, or
17
commercial information, as such terms are used in the Federal Rules of
18
Civil Procedure (Fed. R. Civ.) and any applicable case law interpreting
19
Fed. R. Civ. 26(c)(1)(G); contracts; non-public compilations of retail
20
prices; proprietary information; vendor agreements; personnel files;
21
claim/litigation information; and nonpublic policies and procedures shall
22
be deemed Confidential.
23
24 b. Materials containing corporate trade secrets, nonpublic research and
25 development data, including, but not limited to, cost data, pricing
26 formulas, inventory management programs, and other sales or business
27 information not known to the public; information obtained from a non-
party pursuant to a non-disclosure agreement; and customer-related
1 Protected Data shall be deemed Highly Confidential – Attorneys’ Eyes
2 Only.
3 c. Protected Data shall refer to any information that a party believes in
4 good faith to be subject to federal, state or foreign data protection laws or
5 other privacy obligations. Examples of such data protection laws include
6 but are not limited to The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, 15 U.S.C. § 6801 et
7 seq. (financial information); and, The Health Insurance Portability and
8 Accountability Act and the regulations thereunder, 45 CFR Part 160 and
9 Subparts A and E of Part 164 (medical information). Certain Protected
10 Data may compel alternative or additional protections beyond those
11 afforded Highly Confidential – Attorneys’ Eyes Only material, in which
12 event the parties shall meet and confer in good faith, and, if unsuccessful,
13 shall move the Court for appropriate relief.
14 The parties shall not designate as confidential information that is already public knowledge and agree that
15
all designations shall be made in good faith, and as narrowly as practicable, consistent with FRCP 26(c).
16
3. The parties agree that, upon designation by counsel for any Designating Party and subject
17
to any Receiving Party’s challenge as set forth in Paragraph 20, such Confidential Material as described
18
19 in paragraph 2 should be given the protection of an order of this Court to prevent injury through
20 disclosure to persons other than those persons involved in the prosecution or defense of this litigation.
21 Procedure for Designating Information as Confidential
22
4. To designate information as confidential, the producing party shall mark Confidential
23
Material with the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES
24
ONLY.” Parties shall submit confidential discovery responses, such as answers to interrogatories or
25
answers to requests for admissions, in a separate document stamped with the appropriate legend
26
27 designating those responses as Confidential Material. The Receiving Party may make copies of
1 Confidential Material and such copies shall become subject to the same protections as the Confidential
2
Material from which those copies were made.
3
a. Information on a disk or other electronic format (e.g., a native format
4
production) may be designated confidential by marking the storage
5
medium itself (or the native file’s title) with the legend
6
“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’
7
EYES ONLY.” The Receiving Party shall mark any hard-copy printouts
8
and the storage medium of any permissible copies of such electronic
9
material with the corresponding legend contained on the original and such
10
copies shall become subject to the same protections, as the Confidential
11
Material from which those copies were made.
12
13
b. Information disclosed at any deposition of a party taken in this action
14
may be designated by the party as confidential by indicating on the record
15
at the deposition that the information is confidential and subject to the
16
provisions of this Order. Alternatively, the party may designate
17
information disclosed at the deposition as confidential by notifying the
18
court reporter and other parties in writing, within fifteen (15) business
19
days of receipt of the transcript, of the specific pages and lines of the
20
transcript which are designated as confidential. The parties may agree to
21
a reasonable extension of the 15-business-day period for designation.
22
Designations of transcripts will apply to audio, video, or other recordings
23
of the testimony.
24
5. A producing party may change the confidentiality designation of materials it has
25
produced, as follows: (1) The producing party must give the receiving parties notice of the change by
26
identifying the documents or information at issue. Once notice is given, the receiving party must make
27
good-faith efforts to ensure that the documents or information are accorded treatment under the new
1 designation. (2) Within a reasonable period after giving notice, the producing party must reproduce the
2
documents or information in a format that contains the new designation. (3) If such information has
3
been disclosed to persons not qualified pursuant to paragraphs 12-13 below, the party who disclosed
4
such information shall (a) take reasonable efforts to retrieve previously disclosed Confidential Material;
5
(b) advise such persons that the material is Confidential; and (c) give the producing party written
6
7 assurance that steps (a) and (b) have been completed.
8 Data Security
9 6. The Parties agree to provide adequate security to protect data produced by the other
10
parties or by non-parties. This includes secure data storage systems, established security policies, and
11
security training for employees, contractors and experts. Adequate security also includes such measures
12
as data encryption in transit, data encryption at rest, data access controls, and physical security, whether
13
hosted/outsourced to a vendor or on premises. At a minimum, any receiving party subject to the terms
14
15 of this Protective Order, will provide reasonable measures to protect non-client data consistent with the
16 American Bar Association Standing Committee on Ethics and Professional Responsibility, Formal
17 Opinion 477R.
18
Clawback Provisions
19
7. The production of privileged or work-product protected documents, electronically stored
20
information (ESI) or information, whether inadvertent or otherwise, is not a waiver of the privilege or
21
22 protection from discovery in this case or in any other federal or state proceeding.
23 8. This Order shall be interpreted to provide the maximum protection allowed by Federal
24 Rule of Evidence (FRE) 502(d) and shall be enforceable and granted full faith and credit in all other state
25
and federal proceedings by 28 U.S. Code § 1738. In the event of any subsequent conflict of law, the law
26
that is most protective of privilege and work product shall apply.
27
9. Nothing contained herein is intended to or shall serve to limit a party’s right to conduct a
1 review of documents, ESI or information (including metadata) for relevance, responsiveness and/or
2
segregation of privileged and/or protected information before production.
3
10. If the receiving party has reason to believe that a produced document or other information
4
may reasonably be subject to a claim of privilege, then the receiving party shall immediately sequester
5
the document or information, cease using the document or information and cease using any work product
6
7 containing the information, and shall inform the producing party of the beginning BATES number of the
8 document or, if no BATES number is available, shall otherwise inform the producing party of the
9 information.
10
11. A producing party must give written notice to any receiving party asserting a claim of
11
attorney-client privilege, work-product protection, or other ground for reclaiming documents or
12
information (a “clawback request”). After a clawback request is received, the receiving party shall
13
immediately sequester the document (if not already sequestered) and shall not review or use that
14
15 document, or any work product containing information taken from that document, for any purpose. The
16 parties shall meet and confer regarding any clawback request.
17 Who May Receive Confidential and Highly Confidential Information
18
12. Confidential Material. Any Confidential Material and the information contained therein
19
shall be disclosed only to the Court, its staff, in-house counsel and outside counsel of record for each
20
party, and also shall be disclosed on a need-to-know basis only to the parties, counsel’s staff personnel,
21
employees of a party to whom disclosure is necessary in connection with the preparation for and trial of
22
this action, court reporters in this proceeding, and any deposition, trial or hearing witnesses in the case
23
(including consulting and testifying experts).,
24
13. Highly Confidential—Attorneys’ Eyes Only Material. Material and information
25
designated as “Highly Confidential—Attorneys’ Eyes Only” shall only be disclosed to the Court, its
26
staff, in-house and outside counsel of record for each party, the secretarial, clerical, and paralegal staff
27
of each, and consulting and testifying experts retained by a party in this action.
1 14. Restriction on Disclosure to Direct Competitors. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
2 Confidential Material shall not be disclosed to any current or former employees of, or current or former
3 consultants, advisors, or agents of, a direct competitor of any party named in the litigation. If a Receiving
4 Party is in doubt about whether a particular entity is a direct competitor of a party named in this lawsuit,
5 then before disclosing any Confidential Material to a current or former employee, consultant, advisor,
6 or agent of that entity, the Receiving Party’s counsel must confer with counsel for the Producing Party.
7 15. Persons Receiving Confidential Information Must Sign Exhibit A. Counsel for each party
8 shall advise all persons to whom Confidential Material is disclosed pursuant to this Order of the existence
9 of this Order and shall provide all such persons (other than the Court and its staff) with a copy of this
10 Order. Counsel shall also require such persons to execute the Affidavit attached as Exhibit A, prior to
11 the disclosure of Confidential Material.
12 16. Duties in the Event of Unauthorized Disclosures. It shall be the obligation of counsel,
13 upon learning of any unauthorized disclosure or threatened unauthorized disclosure of Confidential
14 Information, or any other breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this Order, to promptly notify
15 counsel for the Producing Party. The notification shall be supplemented with reasonable details of the
16 circumstances of the disclosure in order to permit the producing party to understand and take appropriate
17 steps. Each party and its counsel agree to take reasonable and good-faith efforts to contain or limit any
18 breach promptly upon receiving notice of it, and to make reasonable and good-faith attempts to retrieve
19 any unauthorized disclosure of documents or information. This provision does not limit the producing
20 party’s entitlement to damages resulting from any breach of this Order.
21 Authorized Uses of Confidential Material
22 17. Confidential Material shall only be used for the purpose of litigating the above-captioned
23 lawsuit and may not be used in other lawsuits.
24 18. Persons having knowledge of Confidential Material and information due to their
25 participation in the conduct of this litigation shall use such knowledge and information only as permitted
26 herein, and shall not disclose such Confidential Material, their contents or any portion or summary
27 thereof to any person(s) not involved in the conduct of this litigation.
1 19. If any person having access to the Confidential Material herein shall violate this Order,
2
he/she may be subject to sanctions by the Court and may be liable to pay for the damages caused by
3
his/her violation.
4
Challenges to the Designation of Confidential Material
5
20. In the event that counsel for a Party receiving Documents, Testimony or Information in
6
7 discovery designated as “Confidential” objects to such designation with respect to any or all of such
8 items, said counsel shall advise counsel for the Designating Party, in writing, of such objections, the
9 specific Documents, Testimony or Information to which each objection pertains, and the specific reasons
10
and support for such objections (the “Designation Objections”). Counsel for the Designating Party shall
11
have thirty (30) days from receipt of the written Designation Objections to either (a) agree in writing to
12
de-designate Documents, Testimony or Information pursuant to any or all of the Designation Objections
13
and/or (b) file a motion with the Court seeking to uphold any or all designations on Documents,
14
15 Testimony or Information addressed by the Designation Objections (the “Designation Motion”). Pending
16 a resolution of the Designation Motion by the Court, any and all existing designations on the Documents,
17 Testimony or Information at issue in such Motion shall remain in place. The Designating Party shall
18
have the burden on any Designation Motion of establishing the applicability of its “Confidential”
19
designation. In the event that the Designation Objections are neither timely agreed to nor timely
20
addressed in the Designation Motion, then such Documents, Testimony or Information shall be de-
21
22 designated in accordance with the Designation Objection applicable to such material.
23 Withholding of Information
24 22. Redactions. The parties may redact (1) information that they in good faith believe is
25
privileged or protected from discovery as work product or by reason of any other applicable privilege or
26
immunity; (2) information subject to non-disclosure obligations imposed by governmental authorities,
27
law or regulation (e.g., protected personal information); and (3) private, non-relevant information,
1 including but not limited to personally identifiable information, trade secrets, or information regarding
2
products, data, or people. Redactions of emails will not redact the names of recipients or the subject line
3
of the emails, unless the subject line is itself privileged or contains the sensitive information described
4
above, in which case only so much of the subject line will be redacted as may be needed. The parties
5
will produce redacted documents in TIFF format (or searchable PDF if production format dictates; or in
6
7 native format for file types that do not convert well to TIFF/PDF, such as Excel files) with corresponding
8 searchable OCR text and the associated metadata for the document, ensuring the redacted content is fully
9 protected from disclosure.
10
Confidential Material In Filings, Hearings, and Trial
11
23. Confidential Material in Filings. Without written permission from the Producing Party
12
or court order secured after appropriate notice to all interested persons, a party may not file Confidential
13
Material in the public record in this action (or in any other action, such as an appeal). A party that seeks
14
15 to file under seal any Confidential Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 141. Confidential
16 Material may only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the specific
17 Confidential Material at issue.
18
24. Manner of Sealing. In the event Confidential Materials or portions of transcripts are
19
sealed as confidential by the Court or as described in paragraph 23 above, they shall be filed in an
20
envelope bearing the following designation when deposited:
21
22 CONFIDENTIAL
23 IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROTECTIVE ORDER OF THE
24 COURT, THE CONTENTS OF THIS ENVELOPE SHALL BE
25 TREATED AS CONFIDENTIAL AND MUST NOT BE SHOWN TO A
26 PERSON OTHER THAN THE COURT, ATTORNEYS IN THIS CASE,
27 OR TO PERSONS ASSISTING THOSE ATTORNEYS.
1 25. Confidential Material in Hearings and Trial. The provisions of this Order shall not affect,
2
and this Order does not limit, the admissibility of Confidential Material (or references to that material)
3
as evidence at trial, or during a hearing or similar proceeding in this action. Prior to using Confidential
4
Material or the information contained therein at any hearing that is open to the public, the party seeking
5
to use the Confidential Material must give at least seven (7) days advance notice to the producing party
6
7 of the intent to use the Confidential Material so that the producing party may seek an appropriate Court
8 Order to protect the Confidential Material.
9 Continuing Effect of this Order and Duty to Destroy
10
26. This Order shall continue to be binding throughout and after the conclusion of this
11
litigation, including all appeals. Within sixty (60) days of settlement or final adjudication, including the
12
expiration or exhaustion of all rights to appeal or petitions for extraordinary writs, each party or non-
13
party to whom any materials subject to this Order were produced shall, without further request or
14
15 direction from the Producing Party, promptly destroy all documents, items or data received including,
16 but not limited to, copies or summaries thereof, in the possession or control of any expert or employee.
17 The Receiving Party shall submit a written certification to the Producing Party by the 60-day deadline
18
that (1) confirms the destruction/deletion of all Confidential Material, including any copies of
19
Confidential Materials provided to persons required to execute Exhibit A (Affidavit), and (2) affirms the
20
Receiving Party has not retained any copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other format
21
22 reproducing or capturing any of the Confidential Material. Notwithstanding this provision, outside
23 counsel is entitled to retain an archival copy of filings, depositions, and deposition exhibits.
24 Procedure if Confidential Material Is Required to be Produced
25
27. If any person receiving documents covered by this Order is served with a subpoena, order,
26
interrogatory, or document or civil investigative demand (collectively, a “Demand”) issued in any other
27
action, investigation, or proceeding, and such Demand seeks material that was produced or designated
1 as Confidential Material by someone other than the Receiving Party, the Receiving Party shall give
2
prompt written notice by hand or electronic transmission within five (5) business days of receipt of such
3
Demand to the party or non-party who produced or designated the material as Confidential Material, and
4
shall object to the production of such materials on the grounds of the existence of this Order. At the
5
request of the party or non-party who produced or designated the material as Confidential Material, the
6
7 Receiving Party shall refuse to comply with the Demand unless (a) ordered to do so by a court with
8 jurisdiction over the Receiving Party; or (b) released in writing by the party or non-party who designated
9 the material as Confidential Material. The burden of opposing the enforcement of the Demand shall fall
10
upon the party or non-party who produced or designated the material as Confidential Material.
11
Compliance by the Receiving Party with any order of a court of competent jurisdiction, directing
12
production of any Confidential Material, shall not constitute a violation of this Order.
13
Application of this Order to Productions by Third Parties
14
15 28. This Order may be used by third parties producing documents in connection with this
16 action. Third parties may designate information as Confidential or Highly Confidential – Attorneys’
17 Eyes Only.
18
29. If a third party produces (or intends to produce) documents and does not designate (or
19
does not intend to designate) those documents as Confidential Material, then any party to this action may
20
seek to designate that third party’s documents or categories of documents as Confidential Material. In
21
22 that case, it will be the burden of the party seeking protected status to move for a court order designating
23 the materials as Confidential Material after the parties confer.
24 30. In the event additional parties join or intervene in this litigation, the newly joined
25
party(ies) shall not have access to Confidential Material until its/their counsel has executed and, at the
26
request of any party, filed with the Court the agreement of such party(ies) and such counsel to be fully
27
bound by this Order.
1 31. The parties agree that nothing in this Order shall be deemed to limit the extent to which
2
counsel for the parties may advise or represent their respective clients, conduct discovery, prepare for
3
trial, present proof at trial, including any document designated Confidential Material as set forth herein,
4
or oppose the production or admissibility of any information or documents which have been requested.
5
32. This Order shall remain in full force and effect until such time as it is modified, amended,
6
7 or rescinded by the Court.
8 IT IS SO STIPULATED, THROUGH COUNSEL OF RECORD.

2 The court has reviewed the parties’ stipulated protective order. (See ECF No. 94.) The
3 || stipulation comports with the relevant authorities and the court’s applicable local rule. See L.R. 141.1.
4 || The court APPROVES the protective order, subject to the following clarification. Once an action is
5 closed, “the court will not retain jurisdiction over enforcement of the terms of any protective order filed
6 in that action.” L.R. 141.1(f); see also, e.g., MD Helicopters, Inc. v. Aerometals, Inc., 2017 WL 495778
(E.D. Cal., Feb. 03, 2017) (noting that courts in the district generally do not retain jurisdiction for
’ disputes concerning protective orders after closure of the case). Thus, the court will not retain
8 jurisdiction over this protective order once the case is closed.

[by MAIL] - I am readily familiar with the firm's practice of collection and processing

correspondence for mailing. Under that practice it would be deposited with the U.S.
Postal Service on that same day with postage thereon fully prepaid at San Francisco,
15
California in the ordinary course of business. I am aware that on motion of the party
served, service is presumed invalid if postage cancellation date or postage meter date is
16
more than one day after date of deposit for mailing this affidavit.

via the United States District Court’s Electronic Filing Program on the designated

website. The Court’s CM/ECF system will generate a Notice of Electronic Filing (NEF)
19
to the filing party, the assigned judge, and any registered users in the case. The NEF will
constitute service of the document(s). Registration as a CM/ECF user constitutes consent
20
to electronic service through the court’s transmission facilities.

listed document(s) via electronic mail to the listed recipient(s) email address(es) and such
