13 || 1. INTRODUCTION

14 1.1 Purposes and Limitations. Discovery in this action is likely to

15 || involve production of confidential, proprietary, or private information for

16 || which special protection from public disclosure and from use for any

17 || purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be warranted.

18 || Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the court to

19 || enter the following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties

20 || acknowledge that this Order does not confer blanket protections on all

21 || disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection it affords

22 || from public disclosure and use extends only to the limited information or

?3 || items that are entitled to confidential treatment under the applicable

24 □

legal principles.

25

———_ crc

97 || | This Stipulated Protective Order is substantially based on the model

protective order provided under Magistrate Judge Diana M. Kwok’s

28 || Procedures as of March 30, 2026.

1 || Good Cause Statement. This action is likely to involve trade secrets,

2 || customer and pricing lists and other valuable commercial, financial,

3 || technical and/or proprietary information for which special protection

4 || from public disclosure and from use for any purpose other than

5 || prosecution of this action is warranted. Such confidential and

6 || proprietary materials and information consist of, among other things,

7 periodic reports showing the number of placements made by Beacon

8 || Hill’s Legal Division personnel, frequency of contacts, profit margins,

|| customer names and volumes and profitability of placements, including

emails that are labeled “Weekly Reports” and year-end summaries of the

business results of Legal Division offices. In addition, there will be

2 confidential personal information about Beacon Hill employees which, if

not protected, would invade their privacy; such as home addresses and

telephone numbers, social security numbers, compensation information,

6 and information about their dependents. Accordingly, to expedite the

flow of information, to facilitate the prompt resolution of disputes over

8 confidentiality of discovery materials, to adequately protect information

19 the parties are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure that the parties

99 || are permitted reasonable necessary uses of such material in preparation

21 || for and in the conduct of trial, to address their handling at the end of the

22 || litigation, and serve the ends of justice, a protective order for such

23 || information is justified in this matter. It is the intent of the parties that

24 || information will not be designated as confidential for tactical reasons

25 || and that nothing be so designated without a good faith belief that it has

26 || been maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and there is good

27 || cause why it should not be part of the public record of this case.

28

1 1.2 Acknowledgment of Procedure for Filing Under Seal. The

2 || parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this

3 || Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential

4 || information under seal; Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that

5 || must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a party

6 || seeks permission from the court to file material under seal.

7 There is a strong presumption that the public has a right of access

8 || to judicial proceedings and records in civil cases. In connection with

non-dispositive motions, good cause must be shown to support a filing

under seal. See Kamakana v. City and Cnty. of Honolulu, 447 F.3d

1172,.1176 (9th Cir,2006), Phillips ex rel. Ests. of Byrd v. Gen. Motors

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

Elecs., Inc., 187 F.R.D. 576, 577 (E.D. Wis. 1999) (even stipulated

protective orders require good cause showing), and a specific showing of

6 good cause or compelling reasons with proper evidentiary support and

legal justification, must be made with respect to Protected Material that

is || 2 party seeks to file under seal. The parties’ mere designation of

19 || Disclosure or Discovery Material as CONFIDENTIAL does not—

29 || without the submission of competent evidence by declaration,

21 || establishing that the material sought to be filed under seal qualifies as

22 || confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable—constitute good cause.

23 Further, if a party requests sealing related to a dispositive motion

24 || or trial, then compelling reasons, not only good cause, for the sealing

25 || must be shown, and the relief sought shall be narrowly tailored to serve

26 || the specific interest to be protected. See Pintos v. Pac. Creditors □□□□□□

27 || 605 F.3d 665, 677—79 (9th Cir. 2010). For each item or type of

28 || information, document, or thing sought to be filed or introduced under

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

2 || protection must articulate compelling reasons, supported by specific

3 || facts and legal justification, for the requested sealing order. Again,

4 || competent evidence supporting the application to file documents under

5 || seal must be provided by declaration.

6 Any document that is not confidential, privileged, or otherwise

7 protectable in its entirety will not be filed under seal if the confidential

8 portions can be redacted. If documents can be redacted, then a redacted

|! version for public viewing, omitting only the confidential, privileged, or

otherwise protectable portions of the document, shall be filed. Any

application that seeks to file documents under seal in their entirety

should include an explanation of why redaction is not feasible.

i7 || copied or extracted from Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts,

ig || summaries, or compilations of Protected Material; and (3) any

19 || testimony, conversations, or presentations by Parties or their Counsel

20 || that might reveal Protected Material.

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

22 || orders of the trial judge. This Stipulated Protective Order does not

23 || govern the use of Protected Material at trial.

24

23 || 4. TRIAL AND DURATION

The terms of this Stipulated Protective Order apply through Final

Disposition of the Action.

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

2 || CONFIDENTIAL or maintained pursuant to this Stipulated Protective

3 || Order and used or introduced as an exhibit at trial becomes public and

4 || will be presumptively available to all members of the public, including

5 || the press, unless compelling reasons supported by specific factual

6 || findings to proceed otherwise are made to the trial judge in advance of

7 || the trial. See Kamakana, 447 F.3d at 1180—81 (distinguishing “good

|! cause” showing for sealing documents produced in discovery from

“compelling reasons” standard when merits-related documents are part

10 of court record). Accordingly, for such materials, the terms of this

Stipulated Protective Order do not extend beyond the commencement of

the trial.

Even after Final Disposition of this litigation, the confidentiality

obligations imposed by this Stipulated Protective Order shall remain in

6 effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in writing or a court

order otherwise directs.

18

io || 5: DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL

20 5.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for

21 || Protection. Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or

22 || items for protection under this Order must take care to limit any such

23 || designation to specific material that qualifies under the appropriate

24 || standards. The Designating Party must designate for protection only

29 || those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written

26 | communications that qualify so that other portions of the material,

27 documents, items, or communications for which protection is not

28

1 || warranted are not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.

2 Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited.

3 || Designations that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been

4 || made for an improper purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case

5 || development process or to impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on

6 || other parties) may expose the Designating Party to sanctions.

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

8 || items that it designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that

Designating Party must promptly notify all other Parties that it is

withdrawing the inapplicable designation.

5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise

3 provided in this Stipulated Protective Order (see, e.g., second paragraph

14 of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise stipulated or ordered, Disclosure

|| OF Discovery Material that qualifies for protection under this Stipulated

16 || Protective Order must be clearly so designated before the material is

17 || disclosed or produced.

18 Designation in conformity with this Stipulated Protective Order

19 || requires:

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

21 || documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or

22 || trial proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the

23 || legend “CONFIDENTIAL? to each page that contains protected

24 || material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page

25 qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify

6 Il the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the

27 margins).

28

1 A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for

2 || inspection need not designate them for protection until after the

3 || inspecting Party has indicated which documents it would like copied

4 || and produced. During the inspection and before the designation, all of

5 || the material made available for inspection shall be deemed

6 || CONFIDENTIAL. After the inspecting Party has identified the

7 || documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must

8 || determine which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection

| under this Stipulated Protective Order. Then, before producing the

specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the

“CONFIDENTIAL” legend to each page that contains Protected

2 Material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page

qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify

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

6 margins).

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

8 identify the Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the

19 ||close of the deposition all protected testimony.

20 (c) for information produced in some form other than

31 ||documentary and for any other tangible items, that the Producing Party

22 ||affix in a prominent place on the exterior of the container or containers

23 ||in which the information is stored the “CONFIDENTIAL” legend. If only

24 ||a portion or portions of the information warrants protection, the

25 ||Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected

26 portion(s).

27 5.3 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an

28

1 || inadvertent failure to designate qualified information or items does not,

2 || standing alone, waive the Designating Party’s right to secure protection

3 || under this Order for such material. Upon timely correction of a

4 || designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts to assure

5 || that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this

6 || Stipulated Protective Order. Confidential documents produced before

7 filing this Stipulation by be designated “Confidential,” as provided

8 herein, and produced a second time, in which case those material will be

|| handled as though they had been originally produced with the

designation of “Confidential.” The documents produced initially without

the designation will be destroyed by the receiving party.

13

4 6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS

15 6.1 ‘Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may

16 || challenge a designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent

17 || with the court’s Scheduling Order,

18 G2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the

19 || dispute resolution process under Local Rule 37.1 et seq.

20 6.3 The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding

21 || shall be on the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those

22 || made for an improper purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary

23 || expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Challenging

24 || Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived or

25 || withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall continue to

26 |! afford the material in question the level of protection to which it is

27 || entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the court rules on

28

1 || the challenge.

2

3 || 7 ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

4 7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected

Material that is disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-

° Party in connection with this Action only for prosecuting, defending, or

’ attempting to settle this Action. Such Protected Material may be

disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the conditions

described in this Order. When the Action reaches a Final Disposition, a

Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below.

Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving

3 Party at a location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is

4 limited to the persons authorized under this Stipulated Protective

|| Order.

16 7.2 Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items.

17 || Unless otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the

is || Designating Party, a Receiving Party may disclose any information or

19 || item designated “CONFIDENTIAL?” only:

20 (a) to the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this

21 || Action, as well as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom

22 || it is reasonably necessary to disclose the information for this Action;

23 (b) to the officers, directors, and employees (including House

24 || Counsel) of the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably

25 necessary for this Action;

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

2” | whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have

28

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

2 (d) to the court and its personnel;

3 (e) to court reporters and their staff;

4 (f) to professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and

5 || Professional Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for

6 || this Action and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement

7 | to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);

8 (g) to the author or recipient of a document containing the

information or a custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or

knew the information;

(h) during their depositions, to witnesses, and attorneys for

2 witnesses, in the Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary,

provided: (1) the deposing party requests that the witness sign the

“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); and (2) the

6 witness will not be permitted to keep any confidential information

unless they sign the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound”

18 (Exhibit A), unless otherwise agreed by the Designating Party or

19 || ordered by the court. Pages of transcribed deposition testimony or

29 || exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected Material may be separately

21 || bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except

22 || as permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order; and

23 (i) to any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting

24 || personnel, mutually agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in

25 || settlement discussions.

26

27

28

1 | 8 PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED

2 PRODUCED IN OTHER LITIGATION

3 If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in

4 | other litigation that compels disclosure of any information or items

> designated in this Action as “CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:

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

notification shall include a copy of the subpoena or court order;

9 (b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the

10 subpoena or order to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the

11 || material covered by the subpoena or order is subject to this Protective

12 || Order. Such notification shall include a copy of this Stipulated

13. || Protective Order; and

14 (c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to

15 || be pursued by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be

16 || affected.

17 If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the

18 || Party served with the subpoena or court order shall not produce any

19 || information designated in this action as “CONFIDENTIAL?” before a

20 || determination by the court from which the subpoena or order issued,

21 |! unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s permission. The

22 Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking

23 protection in that court of its confidential material and nothing in these

provisions should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a

> Receiving Party in this Action to disobey a lawful directive from another

court.

27

28

1 || 9. ANON-PARTYS PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE

2 PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION

3 9.1 Application. The terms of this Stipulated Protective Order

4 || are applicable to information produced by a Non-Party in this Action and

5 || designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information produced by Non-

6 || Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the remedies

7 | and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be

8 || construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional

protections.

9.2 Notification. In the event that a Party is required, by a valid

discovery request, to produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in

2 its possession, and the Party is subject to an agreement with the Non-

Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential information, then the

Party shall:

6 (a) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the

Non-Party that some or all of the information requested is subject to a

8 confidentiality agreement with a Non-Party;

19 (b) make the information requested available for inspection by

29 || the Non-Party, if requested.

1 9.3 Conditions of Production. If the Non-Party fails to seek a

22 || protective order from this court within 14 days of receiving the notice

23 || and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may produce the

24 || Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery request.

25 || Ifthe Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party

26 || shall not produce any information in its possession or control that is

27 || subject to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a

28 || determination by the court. Absent a court order to the contrary, the

1 || Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in

2 || this court of its Protected Material.

3

4 10. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED

5 MATERIAL

° If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it

’ has disclosed Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance

not authorized under this Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving

Party must immediately (a) notify in writing the Designating Party of

the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts 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

4 this Order, and (d) request such person or persons to execute the

is_|| ‘Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A).

16

17 || 11. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR

18 OTHERWISE PROTECTED MATERIAL

19 When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that

70 certain inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege

or other protection, the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set

°° forth in Rule 26(b)(5)(B) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. This

° provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure may be

established in an e-discovery order that provides for production without

prior privilege review. Pursuant to Rules 502(d) and (e) of the Federal

4 Rules of Evidence, insofar as the parties reach an agreement on the

28 effect of disclosure of a communication or information covered by the

1 || attorney-client privilege or work product protection, the parties may

2 || incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order

3 || submitted to the court.

4

> || 12. MISCELLANEOUS

° 12.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Stipulated

’ Protective Order abridges the right of any person to seek its

modification by the court in the future.

12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry

of this Stipulated Protective Order no Party waives any right it

otherwise would have to object to disclosing or producing any

3 information or item on any ground not addressed in this Stipulated

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

15 || ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this

ig || Stipulated Protective Order,

17 12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under

ig || seal any Protected Material must comply with Local Rule 79-5.

19 || Protected Material may only be filed under seal pursuant to a court

20 || order authorizing the sealing of the specific Protected Material at issue.

21 || Ifa Party's request to file Protected Material under seal is denied by the

22 || court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the public

23 || record unless otherwise instructed by the court.

24

2 138. FINAL DISPOSITION

*° After the Final Disposition of this Action, as defined in paragraph

4, within 60 days of a written request by the Designating Party, each

1 || Receiving Party must return all Protected Material to the Producing

2 || Party or destroy such material. As used in this subdivision, “all

3 || Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations,

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

5 || Protected Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or

6 || destroyed, the Receiving Party must submit a written certification to

7 the Producing Party (and, if not the same person or entity, to the

8 Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that (1) identifies (by

category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was

returned or destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not

retained any copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other

2 format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material.

Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel is entitled to retain an archival

copy of all pleadings, motion papers, trial, deposition, and hearing

6 transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial

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

8 expert work product, even if such materials contain Protected Material.

19 Any such archival copies that contain or constitute Protected Material

29 || remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in Section 4.
