UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
8 FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WASHINGTON
AT SEATTLE
9

10 SILVER FERN CHEMICAL, INC., a
Washington corporation,
11
Plaintiff, NO. 2:23-cv-00775-TL
12
v. STIPULATED PROTECTIVE
13 ORDER
SCOTT LYONS, an individual, TROY KINTO,
14 an individual, KING HOLMES, an individual,
ROWLAND MORGAN, an individual, and
15 AMBYTH CHEMICAL COMPANY, a
Washington corporation,
16
Defendants.

17
The Parties have stipulated to the following provisions (Dkt. No. 65):
18
19 1. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS
20 Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential, proprietary, or
21 private information for which special protection may be warranted. Accordingly, Plaintiff and
22 Defendants (collectively the “Parties” and singularly each a “Party”), hereby stipulate to and
23 petition the Court to enter the following Stipulated Protective Order.
1 The Parties acknowledge that this agreement is consistent with LCR 26(c). It does not
2 confer blanket protection on all disclosures or responses to discovery, the protection it affords
3 from public disclosure and use extends only to the limited information or items that are entitled
4 to confidential treatment under the applicable legal principles, and it does not presumptively

5 entitle Parties to file confidential material under seal.
6 2. CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL
7 Confidential Material may be designated as CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY
8 CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY, pursuant to this Stipulated Protective
9 Order. Unless indicated otherwise, Confidential Material shall include both information
10 designated as CONFIDENTIAL and information designated as HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –
11 ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.
12 Materials designated as CONFIDENTIAL shall include the following documents,
13 testimony, and tangible things produced, provided, or otherwise exchanged, and all information
14 contained or disclosed therein, that a designating Party believes in good faith is entitled to

15 confidential treatment under applicable law, including but not limited to: (1) information in the
16 nature of confidential business information, including research, investigation, development,
17 commercial, or operational information that is of a confidential or proprietary nature; (2)
18 current or prospective financial, marketing, planning, strategic, investigative, or other internal
19 information, data, analyses, or specifications of a proprietary, confidential, or competitive
20 nature; (3) confidential or proprietary financial information concerning any individuals; (4)
21 information deemed confidential or non-public by any regulatory body; (5) information
22 otherwise protected by law from disclosure; and/or all material, data, and information obtained,
23 derived, or generated from the foregoing HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES
1 ONLY material, to the extent the same are not publicly available or otherwise subject to the
2 exclusions herein.
3 Materials designated as HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY
4 shall mean the following materials, including documents and testimony, that are not public or

5 do not reflect publicly available information, the disclosure of which would create a substantial
6 risk of serious harm that could not be avoided by less restrictive means and that have not
7 already been shared with the receiving Party: (a) business and other strategic plans; (b) current
8 or prospective corporate financial documents including sales and profit information after April
9 17, 2023, (c) pricing information dated after April 17, 2023, (d) customer lists, (e) customer
10 quotations and customer orders dated after April 17, 2023, (f) information related to the
11 purchase of product after April 17, 2023; (g) marketing plans and forecasts.
12 A party may re-produce or otherwise indicate that any items produced in this action
13 before entry of this protective order are either CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY
14 CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY. The Receiving Party of those documents

15 agrees to immediately treat any such designated document as if it had been designated since its
16 production. The term “documents” as used herein shall have the same meaning and scope as set
17 forth in Fed. R. Civ. P. 34(a). After entry of this Protective Order, any documents, testimony, or
18 information to be designated as CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –
19 ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY must be clearly so designated before the document, testimony, or
20 information is disclosed or produced, as provided herein.
21 3. SCOPE
22 The protections conferred by this agreement cover not only Confidential Material (as
23 defined above), but also (1) any information copied or extracted from Confidential Material; (2)
1 all copies, excerpts, summaries, or compilations of Confidential Material; and (3) any
2 testimony, conversations, or presentations by Parties or their counsel that might reveal
3 Confidential Material.
4 However, the protections conferred by this agreement do not cover information that is

5 in the public domain or becomes part of the public domain through trial or otherwise, unless
6 such information enters the public domain as a result of a breach of this protective order.
7 4. ACCESS TO AND USE OF CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL
8 4.1 Basic Principles. A receiving Party may use Confidential Material that is
9 disclosed or produced by another Party or by a non-party in connection with this case only for
10 prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this litigation. Confidential Material may be
11 disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the conditions described in this
12 agreement. Confidential Material must be stored and maintained by a receiving Party at a
13 location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons authorized
14 under this agreement.

15 Nothing in this Stipulated Protective Order will bar outside counsel from rendering
16 advice to their clients with respect to this litigation, including by relying upon any information
17 designated as CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES
18 ONLY, provided that the contents of the information are not disclosed except as permitted by
19 this Stipulated Protective Order. Further, the restrictions or obligations of this Stipulated
20 Protective Order will not be deemed to prohibit discussion of any Confidential Material with
21 anyone if that person already has or obtains legitimate possession of that information.
22
23
1 4.2 Disclosure of Information or Items designated as CONFIDENTIAL. Unless
2 otherwise ordered by the Court or permitted in writing by the designating Party, a receiving
3 Party may disclose any material designated CONFIDENTIAL only to:
4 (a) the receiving Party’s outside counsel of record in this action, as well as

5 employees of counsel to whom it is reasonably necessary to disclose the information for this
6 litigation, including but not limited to other attorneys, technical advisors, analysts, paralegals,
7 secretaries and other support staff regularly employed by their law firms, provided that such
8 employees are instructed to and do abide by the restrictions of this Stipulated Protective Order;
9 (b) the officers, directors, and employees (including in house counsel) of
10 the receiving party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation, unless a
11 particular document or material produced is designated as HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –
12 ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY;
13 (c) independent consultants or experts provided that disclosure is only to the
14 extent necessary to perform such work, under the conditions set forth in this paragraph. Such

15 expert or consultant must sign the Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound (Exhibit A)
16 and must access the materials in the United States only. The Parties agree that Confidential
17 Material may be disclosed to a consultant or expert only if the consultant or expert (1) is not a
18 current employee or consultant of a designating Party, (2) is not a current officer, director, or
19 employee of any competitor of a Party, and (3) at the time of retention, is not anticipated to
20 become an officer, director, or employee of any competitor of a designating Party. For the
21 avoidance of doubt, any expert or consultant retained by a Party cannot be involved in
22 competitive decision making as defined by U.S. Steel v. United States, 730 F.2d 1465, 1468 n.3
23 (Fed. Cir. 1984) (“a counsel’s activities, association, and relationship with a client that are such
1 as to involve counsel’s advice and participation in any or all of the client’s decisions (pricing,
2 product design, etc.) made in light of similar or corresponding information about a
3 competitor”), for any competitor of a Party.
4 (d) the Court, court personnel, and court reporters and their staff;

5 (e) persons or firms retained for the purpose of litigation support (e.g.
6 professional vendors for copy or imaging services retained by counsel to assist in the
7 duplication of Confidential Material; audio and video recording; interpreting or translating;
8 preparing exhibits or demonstratives; organizing, storing, or retrieving data in any form or
9 medium; jury consulting; mock trial coordination; litigation presentation (“hot seat”)
10 technicians, etc.), provided that counsel for the Party retaining the such persons or firms
11 instructs them not to disclose any Confidential Material to third parties and to immediately
12 return all originals and copies of any Confidential Material at the conclusion of their services or
13 this litigation;
14 (f) during their depositions, witnesses in the action to whom disclosure is

15 reasonably necessary and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be
16 Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise agreed by the designating Party or ordered by the Court.
17 Pages of transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Confidential
18 Material may not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted under this Stipulated Protective
19 Order or otherwise agreed upon by the Parties;
20 (g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a
21 custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information; and
22 (h) any other person or entity to whom the designating Party agrees in
23 writing.
1 Nothing in this Stipulated Protective Order shall limit disclosure or use by a
2 producing Party of its own Confidential Material.
3 4.3 Disclosure of Information or Items designated as HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –
4 ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY. Access to, and disclosure of, any material designated HIGHLY

5 CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY shall be limited to individuals listed in
6 Sections 4.2(a) and (c)–(h).
7 4.4 Filing Confidential Material. Before filing Confidential Material or discussing or
8 referencing such material in court filings, the filing Party shall confer with the designating
9 Party, in accordance with Local Civil Rule 5(g)(3)(A), to determine whether the designating
10 Party will remove the confidentiality designation, whether the document can be redacted, or
11 whether a motion to seal or stipulation and proposed order is warranted. During the meet and
12 confer process, the designating Party must identify the basis for sealing the specific
13 Confidential Material at issue, and the filing party shall include this basis in its motion to seal,
14 along with any objection to sealing the information at issue. Local Civil Rule 5(g) sets forth the

15 procedures that must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a Party seeks
16 permission from the Court to file material under seal. A Party who seeks to maintain the
17 confidentiality of its information must satisfy the requirements of Local Civil Rule 5(g)(3)(B),
18 even if it is not the Party filing the motion to seal. Failure to satisfy this requirement will result
19 in the motion to seal being denied, in accordance with the strong presumption of public access
20 to the Court’s files.
21 5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
22 5.1 All documents and information that may be produced by a non-Party witness in
23 discovery pursuant to subpoena or otherwise may be designated by such non-Party as
1 CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY under the
2 terms of this Stipulated Protective Order, and any such designation by a non-Party shall have
3 the same force and effect, and create the same duties and obligations, as if made by one of the
4 undersigned Parties hereto. Any such designation shall also function as consent by such

5 producing non-Party to the authority of the Court in these proceedings to resolve and
6 conclusively determine any motion or other application made by any person or Party with
7 respect to such designation, or any other matter otherwise arising under this Stipulated
8 Protective Order.
9 5.2 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. Each
10 Party or non-party that designates information or items for protection under this agreement
11 must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies under the
12 appropriate standards. The designating Party must designate for protection only those parts of
13 material, documents, items, or oral or written communications that qualify, so that other
14 portions of the material, documents, items, or communications for which protection is not

15 warranted are not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of this agreement.
16 Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. A party may use
17 computer technology to assist in designating documents or other materials. Designations that
18 are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper purpose (e.g., to
19 unnecessarily encumber or delay the case development process or to impose unnecessary
20 expenses and burdens on other Parties) expose the designating Party to sanctions.
21 If it comes to a designating Party’s attention that information or items that it designated
22 for protection do not qualify for protection, the designating Party must promptly notify all other
23 Parties that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation.
1 5.3 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in this
2 agreement, or as otherwise stipulated or ordered, disclosure or discovery material that qualifies
3 for protection under this agreement must be clearly so designated before or when the material is
4 disclosed or produced.

5 (a) Information in documentary form: the designating Party must affix the
6 words CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY to
7 each page that contains Confidential Material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a
8 page qualifies for protection, the producing Party also must clearly identify the protected
9 portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).
10 (b) Testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial proceedings: the
11 Parties and any participating non-Parties must identify on the record, during the deposition or
12 other pretrial proceeding, all protected testimony, without prejudice to their right to so
13 designate other testimony after reviewing the transcript. A designating Party may designate the
14 entirety of the testimony as CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

15 ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY at any time before the deposition or other pretrial proceeding is
16 concluded, with the right to identify more specific portions of the testimony as to which
17 protection is sought within thirty (30) days. Any Party or non-party may, within thirty (30) days
18 after receiving the transcript of the deposition or other pretrial proceeding, designate portions of
19 the transcript, or exhibits thereto, as CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –
20 ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY. In circumstances where portions of the deposition Testimony
21 are designated for protection, the transcript pages containing CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY
22 CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY Information may be separately bound by the
23 court reporter, who must affix to the top of each page the legend CONFIDENTIAL or
1 HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY as instructed by the designating
2 Party.
3 (c) Other tangible items: the producing Party must affix in a prominent place
4 on the exterior of the container or containers in which the Confidential Material or item is

5 stored the words CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES
6 ONLY. If only a portion or portions of the information or item warrant protection, the
7 producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected portion(s).
8 5.4 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. An inadvertent failure to designate qualified
9 information or items does not, standing alone, waive the designating party’s right to secure
10 protection under this agreement for such material. If a document, testimony, or information is
11 produced that is subject to a CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –
12 ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY designation is inadvertently produced without such designation,
13 the Party that inadvertently produced the document shall give timely written notice of such
14 inadvertent production, together with a further copy of the subject document, testimony, or

15 information designated as CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’
16 EYES ONLY (the “Inadvertent Production Notice”). Upon receipt of such Inadvertent
17 Production Notice, the Party that received the inadvertently produced document, testimony, or
18 information shall notify the producing Party in writing of such destruction within ten (10) days
19 of receipt of the Inadvertent Production Notice. This provision is not intended to apply to any
20 inadvertent production of any document, testimony, or information protected by attorney-client
21 or work product privileges. If the receiving Party has disclosed the materials before receiving
22 the Inadvertent Production Notice, the receiving Party shall notify the designating Party in
23 writing of the identity of any persons to whom such materials were disclosed who would not be
1 entitled to receive such materials under this Stipulated Protective Order. The designating Party
2 shall advise such persons of the terms of this Stipulated Protective Order and request that such
3 persons sign the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A) and/or to destroy
4 the disclosed materials.

5 5.5 Trial. The Parties shall meet and confer regarding the procedures for use of any
6 Confidential Materials at trial and shall move the Court for entry of an appropriate order.
7 6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
8 6.1 Timing of Challenges. Any Party or non-party may challenge a designation of
9 confidentiality at any time. The designating Party bears the burden of establishing
10 confidentiality if a designation is challenged. Unless a prompt challenge to a designating
11 Party’s confidentiality designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable, substantial unfairness,
12 unnecessary economic burdens, or a significant disruption or delay of the litigation, a Party
13 does not waive its right to challenge a confidentiality designation by electing not to mount a
14 challenge promptly after the original designation is disclosed.

15 In the event that counsel for a Party receiving Confidential Materials objects to such
16 designation with respect to any or all of such items, said counsel shall advise counsel for the
17 designating Party, in writing, of such objections, the specific documents, testimony or
18 information to which each objection pertains, and the specific reasons and support for such
19 objections (the “Designation Objections”). Counsel for the designating Party shall have thirty
20 (30) days from receipt of the written Designation Objections to either (a) agree in writing to de-
21 designate documents, testimony, or information pursuant to any or all of the Designation
22 Objections and/or (b) file a motion with the Court seeking to uphold any or all designations on
23
1 documents, testimony or information addressed by the Designation Objections as provided
2 herein.
3 6.2 Meet and Confer. The Parties must make every attempt to resolve any dispute
4 regarding confidentiality designations without court involvement. Any motion regarding

5 confidentiality designations or for a protective order must include a certification, in the motion
6 or in a declaration or affidavit, that the movant has engaged in a good faith meet and confer
7 conference with other affected Parties in an effort to resolve the dispute without court action.
8 The certification must list the date, manner, and participants to the conference. A good faith
9 effort to confer requires a face-to-face meeting or a telephone conference.
10 6.3 Judicial Intervention. If the Parties cannot resolve a challenge without court
11 intervention, the designating Party may file and serve a motion to retain confidentiality under
12 Local Civil Rule 7 (and in compliance with Local Civil Rule 5(g), if applicable). The burden of
13 persuasion in any such motion shall be on the designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and
14 those made for an improper purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and

15 burdens on other Parties) may expose the challenging Party to sanctions. All Parties shall
16 continue to maintain the material in question as CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY
17 CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY until the Court rules on the challenge.
18 7. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN OTHER
19 LITIGATION
20 If a Party is served with a subpoena, discovery request, or a court order issued in other
21 litigation that requests or compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this
22 action as CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY,
23 that Party must:
1 (a) promptly notify the designating Party in writing and include a copy of
2 the subpoena, discovery request, or court order. The recipient of the request, subpoena, or order
3 shall not disclose any Confidential Material pursuant to the request, subpoena, or order prior to
4 the date specified for production on the request, subpoena, or order without the written consent

5 of the designating party;
6 (b) promptly notify in writing the Party who caused the subpoena, request,
7 or order to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena,
8 request, or order is subject to this agreement. Such notification shall include a copy of this
9 agreement; and
10 (c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued
11 by the designating Party whose Confidential Material may be affected.
12 The designating Party may, in its sole discretion and at its own cost, move to
13 quash or limit the request, subpoena, or order, otherwise oppose the disclosure of the
14 Confidential Material, or seek to obtain confidential treatment of such material, to the fullest

15 extent available under law, by the person or entity issuing the request, subpoena, or order. The
16 Party who received the request, subpoena, or order shall not oppose the designating Party’s
17 effort to quash or limit the request, subpoena, or order.
18 8. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL
19 If a receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed
20 Confidential Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this
21 agreement, the receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in writing the designating Party of
22 the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve or destroy all unauthorized
23 copies of the Confidential Materials, (c) inform the person or persons to whom unauthorized
1 disclosures were made of all the terms of this agreement, and (d) request that such person or
2 persons execute the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as
3 Exhibit A.
4 9. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE PROTECTED

5 MATERIAL
6 This stipulated protective order does not affect or constitute a waiver of any Party’s
7 right to withhold or redact information protected from disclosure by the attorney-client
8 privilege, work product doctrine, or any other applicable privilege. When a producing Party
9 gives notice to receiving Parties that certain inadvertently produced material is subject to a
10 claim of privilege or other protection, the obligations of the receiving Parties are those set forth
11 in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). The production or disclosure of privileged
12 information shall not constitute or be deemed a waiver or forfeiture in whole or in part—in this
13 or any other action—of any claim of attorney-client privilege or work product immunity that
14 the disclosing Party would otherwise be entitled to assert with respect to the disclosed

15 privileged information and its subject matter regardless of the circumstances of the production
16 or disclosure. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and (e), the production of a
17 privileged or work product protected document is not a waiver of privilege or protection from
18 discovery in this case or in any other federal proceeding.
19 10. NON-TERMINATION AND RETURN OF DOCUMENTS
20 Within 60 days after the termination of this action, including all appeals, each receiving
21 Party must, upon the request of the producing Party, return, or certify destruction of, all
22 Confidential Material to the producing Party, including all copies, extracts and summaries
23 thereof. Alternatively, the Parties may agree upon appropriate methods of destruction.
1 Notwithstanding this provision, outside counsel are entitled to retain one archival copy
2 of all documents filed with the Court; trial, deposition, and hearing transcripts; correspondence,
3 deposition and trial exhibits; expert reports, attorney work product; and consultant and expert
4 work product, even if such materials contain or summarize Confidential Material.

5 After the termination of this action by entry of a final judgment or order of dismissal
6 (including without limitation any appeals and after the time for filing all appellate proceedings
7 has passed), the provisions of this Stipulated Protective Order shall continue to be binding. This
8 Stipulated Protective Order is, and shall be deemed to be, an enforceable agreement between
9 the Parties. The Parties agree that the terms of this Stipulated Protective Order shall be
10 interpreted and enforced by this Court. The confidentiality obligations imposed by this
11 agreement shall remain in effect until a designating Party agrees otherwise in writing or a court
12 orders otherwise.
13 11. THIRD PARTY PRODUCTION
14 11.1 To the extent that discovery or testimony is taken of third parties, the third

15 parties may designate as CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’
16 EYES ONLY any documents, information or other material, in whole or in part, produced or
17 given by such third parties pursuant to this Stipulated Protective Order.
18 To the extent that discovery or testimony is taken of a third party and the third party
19 does not designate a non-public document, information or other material, in whole or in part, as
20 CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY pursuant to
21 this Stipulated Protective Order, such non-public material shall be treated as CONFIDENTIAL
22 pursuant to this Stipulated Protective Order for thirty (30) days, at which point this designation
23 shall end. If, however, during the thirty (30) day period, the third party designates the material
1 as CONFIDENTIAL or HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY pursuant
2 to this Stipulated Protective Order, the material will be treated as the third party designated it.
3 11.2 A Party that receives documents from a third party pursuant to a subpoena will
4 reproduce those documents to the other Parties within ten (10) business days of receipt.

5 It is so ORDERED.
