16 The Court has reviewed the parties’ stipulated protective order below (ECF No.

17 || 102), and finds it comports with the relevant authorities and the Court's Local Rule. See

18 || L.R. 141.1. Finding good cause, the Court APPROVES the protective order, subject to the

19 || following clarification.

20 The Court’s Local Rules indicate that once an action is closed, it “will not retain

22 || 141.1(f); see Bylin Heating Sys., Inc. v. Thermal Techs., Inc., 2012 WL 13237584, at *2

23 || (E.D. Cal. Oct. 29, 2012) (noting that courts in the district generally do not retain

24 || jurisdiction for disputes concerning protective orders after closure of the case). Thus, the

14 hearings, or trials solely to assist in the recollection of testimony or for the

15 impeachment of a witness, provided that any Confidential Information

16 contained in such affidavit or transcript is redacted or otherwise not disclosed

17 to persons who are not authorized by this Protective Order to receive it.

18 III. USE AND DISCLOSURE

19 A. All information designated “CONFIDENTIAL” shall be used solely for the

20 purposes of the above-captioned litigation between the Parties. Nothing

21 herein shall restrict the use of Protected Material of the Producing Party by

22 the Producing Party. Protected Material may be disclosed only to the

23 categories of persons and under the conditions described in this Order.

24 Protected Material must be stored and maintained at a location and in a secure

25 manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons authorized under this

26 Order.

3 i. The Parties to this litigation including the current employees, officers,

5 defenses;

6 ii. Former employees, officers, and representatives of the Parties who

7 execute the Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound attached to

8 this Order as Exhibit A;

9 iii. Experts, investigators, contractors, consultants, and professional

10 vendors retained by the Parties or their Counsel to whom disclosure is

11 reasonably necessary for this litigation and who execute the

12 Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound attached to this Order

14 iv. Any of the Receiving Party’s Counsel in this Action;

15 v. Adjusters and claims professionals of an insurer of a Party and counsel

16 for such insurer of a Party as needed to litigate any claims or defenses

17 in this Action so long as a representative with authority to bind the

18 insurer executes the Acknowledgement and Agreement to Be Bound

19 attached to this Order as Exhibit A on behalf of the insurer, its

20 adjusters, and claims professionals;

21 vi. The Court and Court personnel;

22 vii. Court reporters, recorders, and videographers engaged for depositions;

23 viii. Any mediator appointed by the Court or jointly selected by the Parties

24 who executes the Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound

25 attached to this Order as Exhibit A;

26 ix. The author or recipient of a document containing Confidential

27 Information or Protected Material or a custodian or other person who

1 otherwise possessed or knew the information;

2 x. Government agencies and agency personnel who have executed the

3 Acknowledgment & Agreement to Be Bound attached to this Order as

4 Exhibit A, but only to the extent that the disclosure of Confidential

5 Information or Protected Material is necessary to litigate any claims or

6 defenses or to comply with any obligations or requirements;

7 xi. In the course of a deposition, any Non-Party deponent and such Non-

8 Party deponent’s counsel may be shown Confidential Information or

9 Protected Material if the Non-Party deponent and the Non-Party

10 deponent’s counsel first execute the Acknowledgment & Agreement

11 to Be Bound attached to this Order as Exhibit A, provided that any

12 such Non-Party deponent and his or her counsel may not retain any

13 documents containing Confidential Information following the

14 deposition;

15 xii. Such other persons as hereafter may be designated by written

16 agreement in this Action or by order of the Court and who execute the

17 Acknowledgment & Agreement to Be Bound attached as Exhibit A.

18 C. Prior to any disclosure of Discovery Material marked “Confidential” to any

19 person required by this Order to execute the Acknowledgement & Agreement

20 to Be Bound attached as Exhibit A, such person shall be provided a copy of

21 this Protective Order and shall sign the Acknowledgement & Agreement to

22 Be Bound, in the form annexed as Exhibit A hereto stating that that person

23 has read this Order and agrees to be bound by its terms. Counsel shall retain

24 each signed Acknowledgement & Agreement to Be Bound, and produce it to

25 opposing counsel prior to such person being permitted to testify at deposition

26 or trial.

27 D. In the event that an attorney of record for a Party desires that Protected

1 Material be disclosed to anyone beyond that which is allowed in this Order,

2 the Parties shall confer in good faith and attempt to resolve the matter; if no

3 agreement can be reached, the matter shall be referred to the Court for

4 resolution. If an agreement is reached, or the Court decides that the

5 document(s) or information shall be disclosed, the person to whom disclosure

6 is to be made shall execute an Acknowledgement & Agreement to Be Bound.

7 E. Before filing Protected Material or discussing or referencing Protected

8 Material in court filings, the filing party shall confer with the Designating

9 Party to determine whether the Designating Party will remove the

10 confidential designation, whether the document can be redacted, or whether

11 a motion to seal or stipulation and proposed order is warranted. During the

12 meet and confer process, the Designating Party must identify the basis for

13 sealing the specific Protected Material at issue, and the filing party shall

14 include this basis in its motion to seal, along with any objection to sealing the

15 information at issue. Local Civil Rule 141 sets forth the procedures that must

16 be followed and the standards that will be applied when a party seeks

17 permission from the court to file material under seal.

18 IV. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL

19 A. Except as otherwise provided in this Order or as otherwise stipulated or

20 ordered, disclosure or documents and things that qualify for protection under

21 this Order must be clearly designated before or when the material is disclosed

22 or production.

23 B. For information produced in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic

24 documents and deposition exhibits, but excluding transcripts of depositions

25 or other pretrial or trial proceedings), the Designating Party must affix the

26 word “CONFIDENTIAL” to each page that contains Confidential

27 Information. Documents produced in native electronic format (such as

1 Microsoft Excel files) shall have a confidentiality designation affixed to the

2 corresponding placeholder slipsheet image. If only a portion or portions of

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

4 clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate

5 markings in the margins).

6 C. For testimony given in deposition or in a pre-trial hearing, the Parties may

7 agree on the record during the deposition or pre-trial hearing that testimony

8 in that proceeding will or will not be treated as Confidential Information. If a

9 Party requests on the record during a deposition or pre-trial hearing that said

10 testimony be provisionally treated as Confidential Information, then said

11 deposition or hearing testimony shall be treated as Confidential Information

12 until thirty (30) days after the transcript is delivered by the court reporter to

13 each Party’s Outside Counsel of Record. Within the 30-day period following

14 the court reporter’s delivery of the transcript, any Party may serve a Notice

15 of Designation to all other Parties as to specific portions of the testimony that

16 shall be designated as Confidential Information. After the 30-day period, only

17 those portions identified in any Notice of Designation shall be protected by

18 the terms of this Order. The Parties may agree to a reasonable extension of

19 the 30-day period for designation. Parties shall endeavor to give the other

20 Parties notice if they reasonably expect a deposition, hearing, or other

21 proceeding to implicate Confidential Information or Protected Material.

22 D. When producing other tangible items, the Producing Party must affix in a

23 prominent place on the exterior of the container or containers in which the

24 information or item is stored the word “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion

25 or portions of the information or item warrant protection, the Producing

26 Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected portion(s).

27 E. In the event that a Producing Party fails to stamp or otherwise designate a

1 document or other information as confidential at the time of its production,

2 that Producing Party may do so thereafter on notice to all of the Receiving

3 Parties; provided however, that the Receiving Party shall not be liable for any

4 disclosure or use of such information that may have occurred prior to

5 receiving notice of the confidential designation. Upon receiving the Protected

6 Material with the correct confidentiality designation, the Receiving Party

7 shall return or securely destroy, at the Designating Party’s option, all

8 Discovery Material that was not designated properly.

9 F. If a Designating Party learns that information or items that it designated for

10 protection do not qualify for protection, the Designating Party must promptly

11 notify all other parties that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation.

12 V. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS

13 A. A Receiving Party shall not be obligated to challenge the propriety of any

14 “CONFIDENTIAL” designation by the Designating Party of Discovery

15 Material under this Order at the time the designation is made, and a failure to

16 do so shall not preclude a subsequent challenge thereto.

17 B. Any challenge to a confidentiality designation of the Designating Party's

18 Discovery Material under this Order shall be written, shall be served on

19 Counsel for the Designating Party, shall particularly identify the documents

20 or information that the Receiving Party contends should be differently

21 designated, and shall state the grounds for the objection. Thereafter, further

22 protection of such material shall be resolved in accordance with the following

23 procedures:

24 i. The Receiving Party shall have the burden of conferring either in

25 person, in writing, or by telephone with the Designating Party in a good

26 faith effort to resolve the dispute. The Designating Party shall have the

27 burden of justifying the disputed designation.

1 ii. The entry of this Order shall not preclude or prejudice either the

2 Designating Party or the Receiving Party from arguing for or against

3 any designation, establish any presumption that a particular

4 designation is valid, or alter the burden of proof that would otherwise

5 apply in a dispute over discovery or disclosure of information.

6 iii. Notwithstanding any challenge to a designation, the Protected Material

7 in question shall continue to be treated as designated under this Order

8 until one of the following occurs: (a) the Designating Party withdraws

9 such designation in writing; or (b) the Court rules that the Discovery

10 Material in question is not entitled to the designation. In the event that

11 a Designating Party withdraws a confidentiality designation or the

12 Court rules that the Discovery Material in question is not entitled to

13 the designation, the Designating Party shall promptly reproduce the

14 information in question with the appropriate confidentiality

15 designation, if any, as applicable.

16 VI. REDACTION AND USE OF PLAINITFF’S IDENTITY

17 A. The Parties may designate as “Confidential - True Identity” any documents,

18 testimony, written responses, or other materials produced in this case if the

19 producing Party has a good faith basis for asserting that they contain

20 information, data, or tangible items that reflect Plaintiff’s Identity. All

21 procedures laid out in this Order regarding the use and filing of Protected

22 Material govern Plaintiff’s Identity.

23 B. During the pre-trial proceedings in this litigation and in any public filing, the

24 Parties will either redact Plaintiff’s Identity or use the pseudonym “T.R.S.”

25 in place of Plaintiff’s Identity.

26 C. Within five days of the entry the filing of this Order by the Court, Plaintiff

27 shall provide Defendants, through their Counsel, with (1) Plaintiff’s full

1 name, maiden name, and all aliases or nicknames; (2) Plaintiff’s date of birth;

2 (3) Plaintiff’s social security number, (4) Plaintiff’s current address and any

3 prior addresses, and (5) Plaintiff’s alleged trafficker(s)’s full name(s) and all

4 aliases or nicknames.

5 D. Nothing in this Order shall prevent a Party from requesting from Plaintiff

6 during the course of discovery any other information that is linked or linkable

7 to Plaintiff’s Identity or her trafficker(s) or her/their associates, such as, but

8 not limited to, any medical, educational, financial, employment, or other

9 information. Nothing in this Order relieves Plaintiff of the obligation to

10 produce any discoverable documents, information that Plaintiff would

11 otherwise be required to produce in the normal course of discovery, or

12 information Plaintiff intends to rely on at trial. The protections conferred by

13 this Order do not cover information that is in the public domain or becomes

14 part of the public domain through trial or otherwise.

15 E. Access to “PLAINTIFF’S IDENTITY” information shall be limited to those

16 identified and described in Paragraph III.B above, as well as the following:

17 i. Any potential, anticipated, or actual fact witness, and their counsel,

18 who execute the Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound

19 attached to this Protective Order as Exhibit B, but only to the extent

20 Plaintiff’s Identity will assist the witness in recalling, relating or

21 explaining facts, except that Plaintiff’s Identity must not be disclosed

22 to Plaintiff’s known trafficker(s) or Plaintiff’s traffickers’ known

23 affiliate(s), unless the Parties follow the procedures in paragraph

24 VI.E(ii) below;

25 ii. Plaintiff’s known trafficker(s) and/or Plaintiff’s trafficker(s)’s known

26 affiliate(s) and their counsel, but only after providing 14-day notice to

27 the Plaintiff of the intention to contact the trafficker to permit Plaintiff

1 to seek further protection from the Court should it be necessary. The

2 Plaintiff’s Identity will be revealed to the trafficker and/or associates

3 only to the extent necessary to assist in their recollection of Plaintiff

4 and her trafficking history. Plaintiff’s and Plaintiff’s family’s physical

5 location will never be disclosed to Plaintiff’s trafficker and/or the

6 trafficker’s associates.

7 F. Plaintiff represents that, consistent with her privacy concerns, it is her intent

8 not to disclose her identity or image in relation to the status of this matter or

9 the underlying allegations on social media or with any media outlet while the

10 case is pending. The identity and image protections provided to Plaintiff in

11 this Order may become inapplicable if Plaintiff does disclose her identity or

12 image in relation to the underlying allegations on social media or with any

13 media outlet while the case is pending. If Defendants become aware of any

14 public disclosure of Plaintiff’s Identity in conjunction with this Action by

15 Plaintiff or her counsel, Defendants may apply to the Court for relief from

16 the restrictions imposed in this Protective Order related to non-disclosure of

17 Plaintiff’s Identity.

18 VII. SUBPOENAS OR COURT RECORDS

19 If a Receiving Party receives a subpoena or other compulsory process (e.g., court

20 order) from any court or other arbitral, administrative, or legislative body commanding

21 the production of Protected Material, the Party to whom the subpoena or other request

22

is directed shall:

23

A. Give prompt written notice thereof, including a copy of the subpoena or other

24

compulsory process, to the Designating Party and its Counsel within seven

25

(7) days to allow the Designating Party an opportunity to move for a

26

protective order regarding the production of Protected Materials implicated

27

by the subpoena or other compulsory process.

1 B. Promptly notify in writing the Party who caused the subpoena or other

2 compulsory process to issue that some or all of the covered material is subject

3 to this Order. Such notification shall include a copy of this Order.

4 C. Redact Plaintiff’s Identity prior to any production in response to the subpoena

5 or other compulsory process.

6 IX. INADVERTENT DISCLOSURE NOT AUTHORIZED BY ORDER

7 A. If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed

8 Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under

9 this Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (1) notify in writing the

10 Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures; (2) use its best efforts to

11 retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material; (3) inform the

12 person or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the

13 terms of this Order; and (4) request that such person or persons execute

14 Exhibit A or Exhibit B.

15 B. Unauthorized or inadvertent disclosure does not change the status of

16 Protected Material or waive the right to hold the disclosed document or

17 information as Confidential Information.

18 X. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF SUBSEQUENTLY CLAIMED

19 PRIVILEGED INFORMATION

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

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

22 protection, the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in

23 Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended

24 to modify whatever procedure may be established in an e-discovery order or

25 agreement that provides for production without prior privilege review. The

26 Parties agree to the entry of a non-waiver order under Fed. R. Evid. 502(d) as

27 set forth herein.

1 B. Upon discovery that a document has been inadvertently produced that the

2 Producing Party believes is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection,

3 the Producing Party must notify the Receiving Party within thirty (30) days

4 of that discovery, in writing, asserting the attorney-client privilege, work

5 product protection, or other applicable privilege or protection with respect to

6 disclosed materials.

7 C. The Receiving Party must—unless it contests the claim of privilege or

8 protection in accordance with this Order—within fourteen (14) days of

9 receipt of that writing and: (i) return, delete, or destroy all copies of the

10 inadvertently disclosed material; and (ii) provide a certification that all

11 materials were returned or destroyed.

12 XI. MISCELLANEOUS

13 A. Modification. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any Party to seek its

14 modification by the Court in the future. By stipulating to or complying with

15 this Order, the Designating Party does not waive the right to argue that certain

16 Protected Material may require additional or different confidentiality

17 protections than those set forth herein. Furthermore, this Order is subject to

18 modification sua sponte by Court order.

19 B. Termination of Matter and Retention of Jurisdiction. The Parties agree that

20 the terms of this Protective Order shall survive and remain in effect after the

21 Final Disposition of the above-captioned matter. The Court shall retain

22 jurisdiction after Final Disposition of this matter to hear and resolve any

23 disputes arising out of this Order.

24 C. Return of Documents. Within sixty (60) days after the Final Disposition of

25 this case, all documents designated as Protected Material under this Order,

26 including copies thereof, shall be returned to the Producing Party unless: (1)

27 the document has been offered into evidence or filed without restriction as to

1 disclosure; (2) the parties agree to destruction in lieu of return; or (3) as to

2 documents bearing the notations, summations, or other mental impressions

3 of the Receiving Party, that party elects to destroy the documents and certifies

4 to the Producing Party that it has done so.

5 D. All Parties that have received any such Protected Material shall, upon request

6 by the Designating Party, certify in writing that all Protected Material has

7 been returned to the Designating Party’s Counsel or destroyed.

8 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Counsel for each Party may retain the

9 following documents: (1) all documents filed with the court, including but

10 not limited to, pleadings, briefs, memoranda, motions; (2) all trial, hearing,

11 and deposition transcripts, including exhibits; and (3) correspondence,

12 attorney work product, expert reports, and consultant and expert work

13 product, even if such materials contain confidential material.

14 E. Successors. This Order shall be binding upon the Parties, their Outside

15 Counsel, and their successors, executors, personal representatives,

16 administrators, heirs, legal representatives, assigns, subsidiaries, divisions,

17 employees, agents, retained consultants and experts, and any persons or

18 organizations over which they have direct control.

19 F. Right to Assert Other Objections. Designating Party does not waive any right

20 it otherwise would have in this action to claim that any Discovery Material,

21 or any portion thereof, is privileged or otherwise non-discoverable, or is not

22 admissible in evidence in this action or any other proceeding. Similarly,

23 neither Party waives any right to object on any grounds to the use in evidence

24 of any Protected Material covered by this Order.

25 G. Burdens of Proof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing

26 in this Protective Order shall be construed to change the burdens of proof or

27 legal standards applicable in disputes regarding whether particular Discovery

1 Material is confidential, whether disclosure should be restricted, and if so,

2 what restrictions should apply.
