19 1. A. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS

20 Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential,

21 proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public

22 disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may

23 be warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to

24 enter the following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this

25 Order does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to

26 discovery and that the protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends

27 only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment

28 under the applicable legal principles. The parties further acknowledge, as set forth

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER.

in Section 12.3 (Filing Protected Material), below, that this Stipulated Protective

Order does not entitle them to a file confidential information under seal; Civil

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

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

under seal.

B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT

This action is likely to involve private, confidential, personal, medical,

HIPPA protected, commercial, financial, technical and/or proprietary information

for which special protection from public disclosure and from use for any purpose

other than prosecution of this action is warranted. Such confidential and

proprietary materials and information consist of, among other things, HIPPA

protected medical information, confidential and proprietary airline operations and

training manuals and materials, confidential business or financial information,

information regarding confidential business practices, , information otherwise

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

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

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

prompt resolution of disputes over confidentiality of discovery materials, to

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

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

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

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

is justified in this matter. It is the intent of the parties that information will not be

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

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

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

this case.

and County of Honolulu, 447 F.3d 1172, 1180-81 (9th Cir. 2006) (distinguishing

“good cause” showing for sealing documents produced in discovery from

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

record). Accordingly, the terms of this protective order do not extend beyond the

commencement of the trial.

5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL

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

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

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

qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate

for protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written

communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents,

items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept

unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.

Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited.

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

improper purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process

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

Designating Party to sanctions.

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

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

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

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

produced.

Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

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

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

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

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

contains protected 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 margins).

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

inspection need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party

has indicated which documents it would like copied and produced. During the

inspection and before the designation, all of the material made available for

inspection shall be deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has

identified the documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must

determine which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this

Order. Then, before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must

affix the “CONFIDENTIAL legend” to each page that contains Protected 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 margins).

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

identify the Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the

deposition all protected testimony.

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

and for any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent

place on the exterior of the container or containers in which the information is

stored the legend “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the

information warrants protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable,

shall identify the protected portion(s).

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

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

the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such

material. Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make

reasonable efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the

provisions of this Order.

6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS

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

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

Scheduling Order.

6.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party Shall initiate the dispute

resolution process under Civil Local Rule 37-1 et seq.

6.3 The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be

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

purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other

parties), may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating

Party has waived or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall

continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to which it is

entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the Court rules on the

challenge.

7. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

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 has been terminated, a

Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of Section 13 below (FINAL

DISPOSITION).

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

authorized under this Order.

7.2 Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless

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

Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated

“CONFIDENTIAL” only to:

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

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

necessary to disclose the information for this Action;

(b) the officers, directors, insurers, and employees (including House

Counsel) of the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for

this Action;

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

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

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

(d) the Court and its personnel;

(e) court reporters and their staff;

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

otherwise agreed by the Designating Party or ordered by the Court. Pages of

transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected

Material may be separately bound by the court reporter and may not be disclosed

to anyone except as permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order; and

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

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

discussions.

8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED

IN OTHER LITIGATION

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

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

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

subpoena or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall

include a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and

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

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

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

with the subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in

this action as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which

the subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s

permission. The Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking

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

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

PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION

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

by a Non-Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such

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

by the remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions

should be construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional

protections.

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

to produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in 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:

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

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

agreement with a Non-Party;

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

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

specific description of the information requested; and

(3) make the information requested available for inspection by

the Non-Party, if requested.

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

within 14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the

Receiving Party may produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive

to the discovery request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the

Receiving Party shall not produce any information in its possession or control that

is subject to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a

determination by the Court. Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party

shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in this Court of its

Protected Material.

10. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED 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 persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms

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

“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit

A.

11. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE

PROTECTED MATERIAL

When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that 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 Federal

Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). 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 Federal Rule of Evidence

502(d) and (e), insofar as the parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure

of a communication or information covered by the attorney-client privilege or

work product protection, the parties may incorporate their agreement in the

stipulated protective order submitted to the Court.

12. MISCELLANEOUS

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

to seek its modification by the Court in the future.
