STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case 2:21-cv-08696-JFW-JEM Document 43 Filed 07/29/22 Page 2 of 16 Page ID #:215

1. A. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS

1

Disclosure and discovery activity in this action are likely to involve

2

production of confidential, proprietary, or private information for which special

3

protection from public disclosure and from use for any purpose other than

4

prosecuting this matter would be warranted. Accordingly, the parties have stipulated

5

to and petitioned this Court to enter the following Stipulated Protective Order. The

6

parties acknowledge that this Order does not confer blanket protections on all

7

disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection it affords extends only

8

to the limited information or items that are entitled under the applicable legal

9

principles to treatment as confidential. The parties have agreed that the terms of this

10

Protective Order shall also apply to any future voluntary disclosures of confidential,

11

proprietary, or private information. The parties reserve their rights to object to or

12

withhold any information, including confidential, proprietary, or private

13

information, on any other applicable grounds permitted by law, including third-party

14

rights and relevancy.

15

16

B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT

17

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

18

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

19

proprietary information for which special protection from public disclosure during

20

discovery and from use for any purpose other than prosecution of this action may be

21

warranted. Such confidential and proprietary materials and information consist of,

22

among other things, confidential business or financial information, information

23

regarding confidential business practices, or other confidential research,

24

development, or commercial information (including information implicating privacy

25

rights of third parties), information otherwise generally unavailable to the public, or

26

which may be privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure under state or

27

federal statutes, court rules, case decisions, or common law. Accordingly, to

28

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case 2:21-cv-08696-JFW-JEM Document 43 Filed 07/29/22 Page 3 of 16 Page ID #:216

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

1

confidentiality of discovery materials, to adequately protect information the parties

2

are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure that the parties are permitted reasonable

3

necessary uses of such material in preparation for and in the conduct of trial, to

4

address their handling at the end of the litigation, and serve the ends of justice, a

5

protective order for such information is justified in this matter. It is the intent of the

6

parties that information will not be designated as confidential for tactical reasons and

7

that nothing be so designated without a good faith belief that it has been maintained

8

in a confidential, non-public manner, and there is good cause why it should not be

9

part of the public record of this case. The parties understand and acknowledge that

10

this Protective Order does not govern the use of materials at trial. Any motions for

11

protective order or requests that documents be maintained under seal must be made

12

to the judicial officer handling the trial.

13

14

C. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF PROCEDURE FOR FILING UNDER SEAL

15

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

16

Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information

17

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

18

and the standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court

19

to file material under seal.

20

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

21

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

22

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

23

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

24

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

25

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

26

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

27

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

28

-3-

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case 2:21-cv-08696-JFW-JEM Document 43 Filed 07/29/22 Page 4 of 16 Page ID #:217

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

1

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

2

submission of competent evidence by declaration, establishing that the material

3

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

4

protectable—constitute good cause.

5

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

6

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

7

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

8

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

9

each item or type of information, document, or thing sought to be filed or introduced

10

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

11

protection must articulate compelling reasons, supported by specific facts and legal

12

justification, for the requested sealing order. Again, competent evidence supporting

13

the application to file documents under seal must be provided by declaration.

14

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

15

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

16

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

17

only the confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable portions of the document,

18

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

19

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

Case 2:21-cv-08696-JFW-JEM Document 43 Filed 07/29/22 Page 7 of 16 Page ID #:220

5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL

1

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

2

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

3

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

4

qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for

5

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

6

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

7

or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably

8

within the ambit of this Order.

9

Mass, indiscriminate or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations

10

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

11

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

12

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

13

Party to sanctions.

14

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

15

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

16

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

17

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

18

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

19

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

20

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

21

produced.

22

Designation in conformity with this Order requires:

23

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

24

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

25

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

26

“CONFIDENTIAL”, as may be appropriate, (hereinafter “CONFIDENTIAL

27

legend”), to each page that contains protected material. If only a portion of the

28

-7-

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case 2:21-cv-08696-JFW-JEM Document 43 Filed 07/29/22 Page 8 of 16 Page ID #:221

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

1

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

2

margins).

3

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

4

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

5

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

6

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

7

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

8

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

9

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

10

producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the

11

“CONFIDENTIAL legend” to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a

12

portion of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also

13

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

14

in the margins).

15

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

16

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

17

deposition all protected testimony.

18

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

19

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

20

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

21

“CONFIDENTIAL” as may be appropriate. If only a portion or portions of the

22

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

23

identify the protected portion(s).

24

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

25

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

26

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

27

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

28

-8-

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case 2:21-cv-08696-JFW-JEM Document 43 Filed 07/29/22 Page 9 of 16 Page ID #:222

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

1

Order.

2

3

6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS

4

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

5

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

6

Scheduling Order.

7

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

8

resolution process under Local Rule 37.1 et seq.

9

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

10

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

11

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

12

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

13

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

14

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

15

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

16

challenge.

17

18

7. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

19

7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is

20

disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this

21

Action only for prosecuting, defending or attempting to settle this Action. Such

22

Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the

23

conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a

24

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

25

DISPOSITION).

26

Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a

27

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

28

-9-

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case 2:21-cv-08696-JFW-JEM Document 43 Filed 07/29/22 Page 10 of 16 Page ID #:223

authorized under this Order.

1

7.2 Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless

2

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

3

Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated

4

“CONFIDENTIAL” only to:

5

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

6

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

7

to disclose the information for this Action;

8

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

9

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

10

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

11

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

12

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

13

(d) the court and its personnel;

14

(e) court reporters and their staff;

15

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

16

Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have

17

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

18

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

19

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

20

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

21

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

22

requests that the witness sign the form attached as Exhibit 1 hereto; and (2) they will

23

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

24

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

25

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

26

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

27

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

permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order; and

1

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

2

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

3

4

8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED

5

IN OTHER LITIGATION

6

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

7

that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as

8

“CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must:

9

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

10

shall include a copy of the subpoena or court order;

11

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

12

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

13

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

14

a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and

15

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

16

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

17

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

18

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

19

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

20

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

21

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

22

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

23

should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action

24

to disobey a lawful directive from another court.

25

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

27

PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION

-11-

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case 2:21-cv-08696-JFW-JEM Document 43 Filed 07/29/22 Page 12 of 16 Page ID #:225

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

1

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

2

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

3

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

4

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

5

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

6

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

7

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

8

confidential information, then the Party shall:

9

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

10

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

11

with a Non-Party;

12

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

13

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

14

specific description of the information requested; and

15

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

16

Party, if requested.

17

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

18

14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party

19

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

20

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

21

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

22

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

23

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

24

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

25

10. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL

26

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

27

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

28

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

Case 2:21-cv-08696-JFW-JEM Document 43 Filed 07/29/22 Page 13 of 16 Page ID #:226

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

1

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

2

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

3

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

4

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

5

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

6

7

11. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE

8

PROTECTED MATERIAL

9

When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain

10

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

11

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

12

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

13

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

14

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

15

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

16

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

17

parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order submitted

18

to the court.

19

20

12. MISCELLANEOUS

21

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

22

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

23

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

24

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

25

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

26

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

27

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

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

1

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

2

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

3

specific Protected Material at issue. If a Party’s request to file Protected Material

4

under seal is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information

5

in the public record unless otherwise instructed by the court

6

7

13. FINAL DISPOSITION

8

After the final disposition of this Action, as defined above in Section 4, within

9

sixty (60) days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party

10
