23 Plaintiff,

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE

24 v. ORDER

25 DLC, AN ADDISON GROUP

COMPANY; ADDISON

26 PROFESSIONAL FINANCIAL aka

APFS STAFFING, INC.; AND DOES

27 1 to 10, Inclusive

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 disclosure

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

6 following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does

7 not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and that

8 the protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends only to the limited

9 information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment under the applicable

10 legal principles.

11 B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT

12 This action is likely to involve trade secrets, customer and pricing lists and

13 other valuable research, development, commercial, financial, technical and/or

14 proprietary information for which special protection from public disclosure and from

15 use for any purpose other than prosecution of this action is warranted. Such

16 confidential and proprietary materials and information consist of, among other things,

17 confidential business or financial information, information regarding confidential

18 business practices, or other confidential research, development, or commercial

19 information (including information implicating privacy rights of third parties),

20 information otherwise generally unavailable to the public, or which may be privileged

21 or otherwise protected from disclosure under state or federal statutes, court rules, case

22 decisions, or common law. Accordingly, to expedite the flow of information, to

23 facilitate the prompt resolution of disputes over confidentiality of discovery materials,

24 to adequately protect information the parties are entitled to keep confidential, to

25 ensure that the parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses of such material in

26 preparation for and in the conduct of trial, to address their handling at the end of the

27 litigation, and serve the ends of justice, a protective order for such information is

1 designated as confidential for tactical reasons and that nothing be so designated

2 without a good faith belief that it has been maintained in a confidential, non-public

3 manner, and there is good cause why it should not be part of the public record of this

4 case.

5 C. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF PROCEDURE FOR FILING UNDER SEAL

6 The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this

7 Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information

8 under seal; Local Civil Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and

9 the standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to file

10 material under seal.

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

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

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

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

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

16 187 F.R.D. 576, 577 (E.D. Wis. 1999) (even stipulated protective orders require good

17 cause showing), and a specific showing of good cause or compelling reasons with

18 proper evidentiary support and legal justification, must be made with respect to

19 Protected Material that a party seeks to file under seal. The parties’ mere designation

20 of Disclosure or Discovery Material as CONFIDENTIAL does not—without the

21 submission of competent evidence by declaration, establishing that the material

22 sought to be filed under seal qualifies as confidential, privileged, or otherwise

23 protectable—constitute good cause.

24 Further, if a party requests sealing related to a dispositive motion or trial, then

25 compelling reasons, not only good cause, for the sealing must be shown, and the relief

26 sought shall be narrowly tailored to serve the specific interest to be protected. See

27 Pintos v. Pacific Creditors Ass’n, 605 F.3d 665, 677-79 (9th Cir. 2010). For each

1 seal in connection with a dispositive motion or trial, the party seeking protection must

2 articulate compelling reasons, supported by specific facts and legal justification, for

3 the requested sealing order. Again, competent evidence supporting the application to

4 file documents under seal must be provided by declaration.

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

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

7 documents can be redacted, then a redacted version for public viewing, omitting only

8 the confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable portions of the document shall

9 be filed. Any application that seeks to file documents under seal in their entirety

10 should include an explanation of why redaction is not feasible.

12 2.1 Action: This pending federal lawsuit, bearing Case No. 2:24-cv-04407-

13 RAO.

14 2.2 Challenging Party: a Party or Non-Party that challenges the designation

15 of information or items under this Order.

16 2.3 “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items: information (regardless of

23 items that it produces in disclosures or in responses to discovery as

24 “CONFIDENTIAL.”

25 2.6 Disclosure or Discovery Material: all items or information, regardless

26 of the medium or manner in which it is generated, stored, or maintained (including,

27 among other things, testimony, transcripts, and tangible things) that are produced or

26 3. SCOPE

27 The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only

1 from Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or compilations of

2 Protected Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or presentations by Parties

3 or their Counsel that might reveal Protected Material.

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

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

6 4. DURATION

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

8 CONFIDENTIAL or maintained pursuant to this protective order used or introduced

9 as an exhibit at trial becomes public and will be presumptively available to all

10 members of the public, including the press, unless compelling reasons supported by

11 specific factual findings to proceed otherwise are made to the trial judge in advance

12 of the trial. See Kamakana, 447 F.3d at 1180-81 (distinguishing “good cause”

13 showing for sealing documents produced in discovery from “compelling reasons”

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

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

16 5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL

17 5.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection.

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

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

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

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

22 qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, items or communications

23 for which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of

24 this Order.

25 Mass, indiscriminate or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations

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

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

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

2 to sanctions.

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

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

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

6 5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in

7 this Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise

8 stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection

9 under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or

10 produced.

11 Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

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

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

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

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

16 contains protected material. If only a portion of the material on a page qualifies for

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

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

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

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

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

22 before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be

23 deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents

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

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

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

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

1 protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins).

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

3 the Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, or within ten (10) days after the

4 Designating Party receives a rough copy of the deposition transcript, all protected

5 testimony.

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

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

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

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

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

11 portion(s).

12 5.3 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent

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

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

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

16 efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this

17 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

21 Scheduling 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

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

26 (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may

27 expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived

1 material in question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing

2 Party’s designation until the Court rules on the challenge.

3 7. 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

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

15 Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated

16 “CONFIDENTIAL” only to:

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

18 as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably necessary

19 to disclose the information for this Action;

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

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

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

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

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

25 (d) the court and its personnel;

26 (e) court reporters and their staff;

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

8 “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise

9 agreed by the Designating Party or ordered by the court. Pages of transcribed

10 deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected Material may be

11 separately bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except as

12 permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order; and

13 (i) any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting personnel,

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

15 8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN

16 OTHER LITIGATION

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

18 that 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

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

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

25 this Stipulated Protective Order; and

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

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

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

2 as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the subpoena

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

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

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

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

7 directive from another court.

8 9. A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE

9 PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

18 confidential information, then the Party shall:

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

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

21 with a Non-Party;

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

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

24 specific description of the information requested; and

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

26 Party, if requested.

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

1 may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery

2 request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall

3 not produce any information in its possession or control that is subject to the

4 confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court.

5 Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense

6 of seeking protection in this court of its Protected Material.

7 10. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

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

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

10 Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in

11 writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts

12 to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or

13 persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Order,

14 and (d) request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and

15 Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

16 11. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE

17 PROTECTED MATERIAL

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

26 parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order submitted

27 to the court.

1 12. MISCELLANEOUS

2 12.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any

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

4 12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this

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

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

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

8 ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order.

9 12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any

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

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

12 Protected Material at issue. If a Party’s request to file Protected Material under seal

13 is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the public

14 record unless otherwise instructed by the court.

15 13. FINAL DISPOSITION

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

17 days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must return

18 all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As used in this

19 subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations,

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

21 Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving

22 Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same

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

24 (by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or

25 destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies,

26 abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or capturing any

27 of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel are entitled to

1 transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial exhibits, expert

2 reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert work product, even if such

3 materials contain Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or

4 constitute Protected Material remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in

5 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.
