1 1. A. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS!

2 Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential

3 || proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public □□□□□□□□□

4 ||and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be warranted

5 || Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to enter the followin;

6 Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does not confe

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

8 ||it affords from public disclosure and use extends only to the limited information o

9 ||items that are entitled to confidential treatment under the applicable legal principles

10 || The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this Stipulatec

11 || Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information under seal; Civi

12 || Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and the standards tha

13 || will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to file material unde

14 || seal.

15 B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT

16 This action arises from the September 6, 2021 arrest of Plaintiff by officers of th

17 || Sierra Madre Police Department. Plaintiff alleges causes of action for negligence and

18 || intentional infliction of emotional distress. He further alleges causes of action for false

19 || arrest and imprisonment, false evidence, and supervisory liability pursuant to 42 U.S.C.

20 || § 1983.

21 As explained below, this action is likely to involve confidential materials

22 || protected by California Evidence Code section 1040, the official information privilege,

23 || or other state or federal statutes, court rules, case decisions, or common law prohibiting

24 || or limiting dissemination and disclosure. Additionally, this action may involve other

25 || proprietary information concerning police practices and security protocols for which

26 || Special protection from public disclosure and from use for any purpose other than

27

28 || | This stipulated protective order is substantially based on the model protective order published and used throughout th

Central District.

|| °°"

1 || prosecution of this action is warranted.

2 In terms of discovery, Defendants anticipate that a protective order will be

3 ||necessary in connection with the following items of evidence: 1) personnel and

4 ||administrative records of peace officers; 2) law enforcement investigative records

5 || which reveal the identify of third-party witnesses; and 3) such other evidence for which

6 || dissemination should be limited for use in this action only.

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

8 resolution of disputes over confidentiality of discovery materials, to adequately protect

9 || information the parties are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure that the parties are

10 || permitted reasonable necessary uses of such material in preparation for and in the

11 || conduct of trial, to address their handling at the end of the litigation, and serve the ends

12 || of justice, a protective order for such information 1s justified in this matter. It is the

13 || intent of the parties that information will not be designated as confidential for tactical

14 || reasons and that nothing be so designated without a good faith belief that it has been

15 || maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and there is good cause why it should

16 || not be part of the public record of this case.

1 |/3. SCOPE

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

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

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

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

6 Counsel that might reveal Protected Material.

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

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

9 DURATION

10 Once a case proceeds to trial, all of the information that was designated as

11 || confidential or maintained pursuant to this protective order becomes public and will be

12 || presumptively available to all members of the public, including the press, unless

13 || compelling reasons supported by specific factual findings to proceed otherwise are

14 || made to the trial judge in advance of the trial. See Kamakana v. City and County of

15 || Honolulu, 447 F.3d 1172, 1180-81 (9th Cir. 2006) (distinguishing “good cause”

16 || Showing for sealing documents produced in discovery from “compelling reasons”

17 || standard when merits-related documents are part of court record). Accordingly, the

18 || terms of this protective order do not extend beyond the commencement of the trial.

19 |}5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL

20 5.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection.

21 || Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under this

22 || Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies

23 || under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for protection

24 || only those parts of material, documents, items or oral or written communications that

25 || qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, items or communications for

26 || which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of this

27 || Order.

28 || ///

|| °°"

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

2 shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper purpose

3 |/(e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to impose

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

5 to sanctions.

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

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

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

9 5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in this

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

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

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

13 Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

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

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

16 || Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter

17 || “CONFIDENTIAL legend’), to each page that contains protected material. If only a

18 || portion of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must

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

20 || margins).

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

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

23 || which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before

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

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

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

27 || portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing the

28 || specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL legend” to

|| °°" ‘

1 || each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion of the material on a page

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

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

4 (b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party identifies the

5 || Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the deposition all

6 || protected testimony.

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

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

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

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

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

12 || portion(s).

13 5.3 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent failure

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

15 || Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material. Upon

16 || timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts to

17 || assure that the material 1s treated in accordance with the provisions of this Order.

18 || 6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS

19 6.1 Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a

20 || designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s Scheduling

21 || Order.

22 6.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute

23 || resolution process under Local Rule 37.1 et seq.

24 6.3. The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the

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

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

27 || Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived or withdrawn

28 || the confidentiality designation, all parties shall continue to afford the material in

|| °°"

1 || question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing Party’s

2 designation until the Court rules on the challenge.

3 ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

4 7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is

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

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

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

8 || conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a Receiving

9 || Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL DISPOSITION).

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

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

12 || authorized under this Order.

13 7.2 Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless otherwise

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

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

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

17 || well as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably

18 || necessary to disclose the information for this Action;

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

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

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

22 || disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the

23 ||““Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);

(d) the court and its personnel;

25 (ec) court reporters and their staff;

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

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

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

|| °°"

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

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

3 (h) during their depositions, witnesses, and attorneys for witnesses, in the

4 || Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided: (1) the deposing party

5 requests that the witness sign the form attached as Exhibit A hereto; and (2) they will

6 not be permitted to keep any confidential information unless they sign the

7 ||“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise agreed

8 by the Designating Party or ordered by the court. Pages of transcribed deposition

9 || testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected Material may be separately

10 || bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted

11 || under this Stipulated Protective Order;

12 (1) any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting personnel,

13 || mutually agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement discussions; and

14 (j) the parties.

15 |/8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN

16 |} OTHER LIGITATION

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

18 || compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as

19 || “CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:

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

21 include a copy of the subpoena or court order;

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

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

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

25 || Stipulated Protective Order; and

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

27 || the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected.

28 || ///

|| °°"

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

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

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

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

5 || Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in that court

6 || of its confidential material and nothing in these provisions should be construed as

7 authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action to disobey a lawful

8 || directive from another court.

9 1/9. A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE PRODUCED

10 || IN THIS LITIGATION

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

12 || Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information produced

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

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

15 ||a Non-Party from seeking additional protections.

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

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

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

19 || then the Party shall:

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

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

22 || Non-Party;

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

24 || Protective Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably

25 || specific description of the information requested; and

26 (3) make the information requested available for inspection by the Non-

27 || Party, if requested.

2g |] ///

|| °°" 10

1 (c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within 14 day:

2 |lof receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may

3 || produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery request. I

4 ||the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall not produce

5 any information in its possession or control that is subject to the confidentiality

6 agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court. Absent a court ordet

7 ||to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection

8 ||in this court of its Protected Material.

9 |}10. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

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

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

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

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

14 || all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or persons to

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

16 || request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be

17 || Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

18 |}11. 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, th

22 || 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 procedure

24 || may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production without prior

25 || privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and (e), insofar as the

26 || parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a communication or

27 || information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work product protection, the

28 || parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order submitted to

|| °°" iH

1 || the court.

2 {}12. MISCELLANEOUS

3 12.1 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 12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this

6 || Protective Order, no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to

7 || disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this

8 || Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any

9 || ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order,

10 12.3 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 may

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

13 || Protected Material at issue. If a Party’s request to file Protected Material under seal is

14 || denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the public

15 || record unless otherwise instructed by the court.

16 FINAL DISPOSITION

17 After the final disposition of this Action, as defined in paragraph 4, within 60

18 || days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must return all

19 || Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As used in this

20 || subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations,

21 ||summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected

22 || Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving Party

23 || must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same person

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

25 || category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or destroyed

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

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

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

|| °°"

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

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

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

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

5 || Material remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION)

6 ||14. VIOLATION

7 || Any violation of this Order may be punished by appropriate measures including,

8 || without limitation, contempt proceedings and/or monetary sanctions.
