Stipulation for Modification of Protective Order

A. CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL SUBJECT TO THIS PROTECTIVE ORDER

During the course of discovery, Plaintiffs requested (1) a suicide report by Dr. Marian

Chiurazzi regarding the death of Latrisha Yolanda Lilly, and related documents, (2) a criminal

investigation report into Ms. Lilly’s death by Special Agent Robert Bryan, and related documents

and tape recordings; (3) an investigation by the Internal Affairs Division of the California

Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation into the time taken to provide medical assistance to

Ms. Lilly on July 1, 2004; and (4) documents and information containing individually identifiable

health information regarding prisoners who are not parties to this action.

Defendants objected to production on the ground that the documents and information

sought were privileged from disclosure under the self-critical analysis privilege, Coleman

protective order, and law governing the release of protected health information. Plaintiff

contends that the documents and information sought is not privileged and contains information

that is reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence regarding the claims

at issue. The parties agree that this discovery dispute can be resolved through a protective order

governing the conditions under which the confidential documents and information will be

disclosed in discovery. 

B. CONDITIONS FOR RELEASE OF CONFIDENTIAL DOCUMENTS 

1. The social security numbers, birth dates, home addresses and telephone

numbers, and any other confidential personal information of persons who are individually

identified in the documents shall be redacted. 

2. The confidential material may be disclosed only to the following persons: 

(a) Counsel of record for Plaintiffs in this action; 

(b) Paralegal, stenographic, clerical and secretarial personnel regularly

employed by counsel for Plaintiffs; 

(c) Court personnel and stenographic reporters engaged in such proceedings

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

(d) Any outside expert or consultant retained by Plaintiffs’ counsel for

purposes of this action; and

(e) Witnesses to whom the confidential material may be disclosed during or in

preparation for a deposition taken in this matter or otherwise during the preparation for trial and

trial, provided that the witness may not leave any deposition with copies of any of the

confidential material, and shall be informed and agree to be bound by the terms of this order.

3. Plaintiffs’ counsel and their legal assistants and consultants shall not make copies of

the confidential material except as necessary for purposes of this litigation. 

4. Each person to whom disclosure of the confidential material is made shall, prior to

the time of disclosure, be provided by the person furnishing such materials a copy of this

stipulation and protective order, and shall agree in writing that he or she has read the stipulation

and protective order, and understands its provisions and conditions. The writing shall include the

express consent of the person to whom the disclosure is made to be subject to the jurisdiction of

this Court with respect to any proceeding related to enforcement of this stipulated protective

order, including without limitation, any proceeding for contempt.

5. All confidential material in possession of Plaintiffs’ counsel shall be destroyed or

returned to CDCR within 20 days of the time it is no longer needed for purposes of this litigation. 

6. When Plaintiffs’ counsel returns or destroys the confidential material, they shall

provide Defendants’ counsel with a declaration stating that all confidential material has been

returned or destroyed. 

7. All confidential material obtained by Plaintiffs’ counsel shall not be disclosed

except as is necessary in connection with this or related litigation, including appeals, and not for

any other purpose, including any other litigation. 

8. Any confidential material filed with the Court by either party shall be filed and

maintained under seal. 

9. 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.
