Stipulated Protective Order

1. The protective order covers all information, documents or material produced by

Defendants pursuant to discovery requested by Plaintiff’s counsel, which individually identifies

third parties other than the named Plaintiff in this action, including mental health information and

records. Documents obtained by Plaintiff’s counsel pursuant to a written release signed by the

third party are not covered by this order. 

2. All documents and information covered by this order shall be referred to as

“confidential material.”

3. The confidential material may be disclosed only to the following persons, and

only after they are informed that the material may not be disclosed except as provided by this

order: 

a. Counsel of record for Plaintiff in this action;

b. Paralegal, stenographic, clerical and secretarial personnel regularly employed

by counsel of record for Plaintiff;

c. Court personnel and stenographic reporters to engaged in such proceedings

as are incidental to the preparation for the trial in this action; and

d. Any outside expert or consultant retained by Plaintiff’s counsel for purposes

of this action. 

4. All confidential material obtained by counsel for Plaintiff shall be destroyed or

returned to the attorney for Defendants Alameida, Cavanaugh, Davis, DiCarlo, Finn, Lockyer,

Ramirez and Stevens, within 5 days of the time it is no longer needed for purposes of this

litigation. 

5. All confidential materials obtained by counsel for Plaintiff shall not be disclosed

except as is necessary in connection with this litigation, including appeals, and not for any other

purpose, including any other litigation or administrative proceeding. 

6. Any documents filed with the Court that reveal confidential material shall be filed

with a motion to seal. Upon failure of the filing party to so file a document under seal, either

party may request the Court place the document under seal.

Stipulated Protective Order

7. Nothing in this Order shall preclude a party from showing or disclosing to any

person not listed in paragraph 3 of this Order deposition transcripts, pleadings, or briefs

containing confidential material, if the document containing such material has been masked or

deleted so that no disclosure of the confidential material occurs. 

8. With the exception of documents, if any, contained in the confidential portions of

the inmate file, including, if any, a gang file; and personal information of third parties (e.g.,

social security numbers, birth dates, names of any minors, addresses; and/or any mental health

interviews, evaluations or conclusions involving or pertaining to a third party), all documents

produced under this order may be reviewed in a complete and unredacted form. If, in the

judgment of Plaintiff’s counsel, such information as has been redacted is necessary for the

conduct of this litigation, such documents will be expeditiously presented to the court for an in

camera review to determine whether and to what extent they must be produced. Insofar as the

court determines that any such information is subject to the exclusion for production, the

attorneys for Plaintiff and their legal assistants and consultants shall not disclose the information

to any person for any purpose.

9. Attorneys for Plaintiff and their legal assistants and consultants shall not make

copies of the confidential material obtained by them except as necessary for purposes of this

litigation. Counsel for Plaintiff will maintain control over all copies, electronic or otherwise,

obtained by them. 

10. Each person who has been afforded access to confidential material shall not

disclose or discuss the confidential material, including the identification, the location, mental

health status, or health status to or with any persons except as is necessary to this case, and then

only in accordance with paragraph 3 of this order.

11. Confidential material respecting any third party shall not be disclosed or discussed

with any other person except in accordance with paragraph 3 of this order. If Plaintiff’s counsel

believes such disclosure is necessary to the prosecution of this litigation, Plaintiff’s counsel shall

notify Defendants’ counsel fourteen court days prior to any such disclosure and advise them of

the specific information to be disclosed and the specific individuals Plaintiff’s counsel intends to

disclose it to. Should Defendants’ counsel believe that the proposed disclosure would be

inappropriate, Defendants’ counsel may seek a protective order to prohibit Plaintiff’s counsel

from making the disclosure. If Defendants’ counsel files a motion for such a protective order,

Plaintiff’s counsel will not make any disclosure until the issue is adjudicated by the Court. 

12. The foregoing provisions of this order, with the exception of paragraph 6, do not

apply to officials, employees or representatives of the State of California, to include Defendants,

or other authorized government officials or consultants. 

13. Nothing in this protective order is intended to prevent officials or employees of

the State of California, or other authorized government officials, from having access to

confidential material to which they would have access in the normal course of their official

duties. 

14. The provisions of this protective order are without prejudice to the right of any

party: 

a. To apply to the Court for a further protective order relating to any

confidential material or relating to discovery in this litigation;

b. To apply to the Court for an order removing the confidential material

designation from any documents;

c. To object to a discovery request;

d. To apply to the Court for an order compelling production of documents or

modification of this order or for any order permitting disclosure of confidential material beyond

the terms of this Order.
