STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER Case No. C 07-00736 MMC

The parties to this action, having determined that certain documents and information

produced or to be produced during discovery in this litigation should be kept confidential in order

to protect the legitimate business and privacy interests of the parties, their customers and other

persons, including non-parties to this action, and based upon the stipulation of the parties, and good

cause for entering this Stipulated Protective Order (the “Order”) having been shown;

It is hereby stipulated and agreed by the parties and ordered by the Court that the following

procedures shall govern the production and use of all documents, testimony, interrogatory answers

and other information produced during discovery in this action:

1. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS

Disclosure and discovery activity in this action are likely to involve production of

confidential, proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public disclosure

and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation would be warranted. 

Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the court to enter the following Stipulated

Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does not confer blanket protections on

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

information or items that are entitled under the applicable legal principles to treatment as

confidential. The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 10, below, that this Stipulated

Protective Order creates no entitlement to file confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule

79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and reflects the standards that will be applied

when a party seeks permission from the court to file material under seal.

2. DEFINITIONS

2.1 Party: any party to this action, including all of its officers, directors,

employees, consultants, retained experts, and outside counsel (and their support staff).

2.2 Disclosure or Discovery Material: all items or information, regardless of the

medium or manner generated, stored, or maintained (including among other things, testimony,

transcripts, or tangible things) that are produced or generated in disclosures or responses to

discovery in this matter.

STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER Case No. C 07-00736 MMC

2.3 “Confidential” Information or Items: “Confidential Information” means any

sensitive confidential research, design, development, financial, commercial or personal information

contained in any document or testimony (regardless of how generated, stored or maintained) within

the meaning of Rule 26(c)(7) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. “Confidential Information”

does not include any information that a party has made publicly available.

2.4 “Highly Confidential - Attorneys’ Eyes Only” Information or Items: “Highly

Confidential Information” shall include any trade secret or any confidential research, design,

development, commercial or personal information contained in any document or testimony within

the meaning of Rule 26(c)(7) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure that is entitled to a higher level

of protection due to its commercial sensitivity. Disclosure to another Party or non-party would

create a substantial risk of serious injury that could not be avoided by less restrictive means. All

protections applicable under this Order to Confidential Information apply as well to Highly

Confidential Information.

2.5 Receiving Party: a Party that receives Disclosure or Discovery Material from

a Producing Party. 

2.6 Producing Party: a Party or non-party that produces Disclosure or Discovery

Material in this action.

2.7 Designating Party: a Party or non-party that designates information or items

that it produces in disclosures or in responses to discovery as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY

CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.”

2.8 Protected Material: any Disclosure or Discovery Material that is designated

as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.”

2.9 Outside Counsel: attorneys who are not employees of a Party but who are

retained to represent or advise a Party in this action.

2.10 House Counsel: attorneys who are employees of a Party.

2.11 Counsel (without qualifier): Outside Counsel and House Counsel (as well as

their support staffs).

2.12 Expert: a person with specialized knowledge or experience in a matter

pertinent to the litigation who has been retained by a Party or its counsel to serve as an expert

witness or as a consultant in this action and who is not a past or a current employee of a Party or of

a competitor of a Party’s and who, at the time of retention, is not anticipated to become an employee

of a Party or a competitor of a Party’s. This definition includes a professional jury or trial consultant

retained in connection with this litigation.

2.13 Professional Vendors: persons or entities that provide litigation support

services (e.g., photocopying; videotaping; translating; preparing exhibits or demonstrations;

organizing, storing, retrieving data in any form or medium; etc.) and their employees and

subcontractors.

3. SCOPE

The protections conferred by this Order cover not only Protected Material (as defined above),

but also any information copied or extracted therefrom, as well as all copies, excerpts, summaries,

or compilations thereof, plus testimony, conversations, or presentations by parties or counsel to or

in court or in other settings that might reveal Protected Material.

4. DURATION

Even after the termination of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations imposed by this

Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in writing or a court order

otherwise directs.

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.

A Designating Party must take care to 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 or retard the case development process, or to impose unnecessary expenses

and burdens on other parties), expose the Designating Party to sanctions.

If it comes to a Party’s or a non-party’s attention that information or items that it

designated for protection do not qualify for protection at all, or do not qualify for the level of

protection initially asserted, that Party or non-party must promptly notify all other parties that it is

withdrawing the mistaken 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,

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 (apart from transcripts of

depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the Producing Party affix the legend

“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” at the top of

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) and must specify, for each portion, the level of

protection being asserted (either “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL -

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”).

A Party or non-party that makes original documents or materials available for

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

material it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before the designation, all

of the material made available for inspection shall be deemed “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL -

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.” 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 appropriate legend (“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY

CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”) at the top of 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) and must specify, for each portion, the level of protection being asserted

(either “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”).

(b) for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or trial

proceedings, that the Party or non-party offering or sponsoring the testimony identify on the record,

before the close of the deposition, hearing, or other proceeding, all protected testimony, and further

specify any portions of the testimony that qualify as “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS’

EYES ONLY.” When it is impractical to identify separately each portion of the testimony that is

entitled to protection, and when it appears that substantial portions of the testimony may qualify for

protection, the Party or non-party that sponsors, offers, or gives the testimony may invoke on the

record (before the deposition or proceeding is concluded) a right to have up to 20 days to identify

the specific portions of the testimony as to which protection is sought and to specify the level of

protection being asserted (“CONFIDENTIAL or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS’

EYES ONLY”). Only those portions of the testimony that are appropriately designated for

protection within the 20 days shall be covered by the provisions of this Order.

Transcript pages containing Protected Material must be separately bound by

the court reporter, who must affix to the top of each such page the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY,” as instructed by the Party or

non-party offering or sponsoring the witness or presenting the testimony.

(c) for any 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 or item is stored the legend

“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.” If only

portions of the information or item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable,

shall identify the protected portions, specifying whether they qualify as “CONFIDENTIAL” or as

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.”

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

to designate qualified information or items as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL

- ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” does not, standing alone, waive the Designating Party’s right to

secure protection under this Order for such material. If material is appropriately designated as

“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” after the

material was initially produced, the Receiving Party, on timely notification of the designation, 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. Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating Party’s

confidentiality designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable substantial unfairness, unnecessary

economic burdens, or a later significant disruption or delay of the litigation, a Party does not waive

its right to challenge a confidentiality designation by electing not to mount a challenge promptly

after the original designation is disclosed.

6.2 Meet and Confer. A Party that elects to initiate a challenge to a Designating

Party’s confidentiality designation must do so in good faith and must begin the process by conferring

directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other forms of communication are not sufficient) with counsel

for the Designating Party. In conferring, the challenging party must explain the basis for its belief

that the confidentiality designation was not proper and must give the Designating Party an

opportunity to review the designated material, to reconsider the circumstances, and, if no change in

designation is offered, to explain the basis for the chosen designation. A challenging Party may

proceed to the next stage of the challenge process only if it has engaged in this meet and confer

process first.

6.3 Judicial Intervention. A party that elects to press a challenge to a

confidentiality designation after considering the justification offered by the Designating Party may

file and serve a motion under Civil Local Rule 7 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5, if

applicable) that identifies the challenged material and sets forth in detail the basis for the challenge.

Each such motion must be accompanied by a competent declaration that affirms that the movant has

complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed in the preceding paragraph and that sets

forth with specificity the justification for the confidentiality designation that was given by the

Designating Party in the meet and confer dialogue.

It is understood and agreed that the Designating Party will have the burden of

establishing the grounds for confidential treatment fo the document or testimony at issue. The

confidential status of the documents, testimony, or information at issue shall be maintained pending

the Court’s ruling on the motion and any appeal therefrom.

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

Designating Party. Until the court rules on the challenge, 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.

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 case only for

prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this litigation. Such Protected Material may be

disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the conditions described in the Order. When

the litigation has been terminated, a Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 11,

below (FINAL DISPOSITION).

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

anyone except as permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order;

It shall be the further obligation of counsel, upon learning of any breach or

threatened breach of this Order by any witness provided designated documents, promptly to notify

opposing counsel of such breach or threatened breach;

(g) the author of the document or the original source of the information.

8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN

OTHER LITIGATION

1. If a Receiving Party is served with a subpoena or an order issued in other

litigation that would compel disclosure of any information or items designated in this action as

“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY,” the

Receiving Party must so notify the Designating Party, in writing (by fax, if possible) immediately

and in no event more than three court days after receiving the subpoena or order. Such notification

must include a copy of the subpoena or court order.

2. The Receiving Party also must immediately inform in writing the Party who

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

the subpoena or order is the subject of this Order. In addition, the Receiving Party must deliver a

copy of this Order promptly to the Party in the other action that caused the subpoena or order to

issue. The Receiving Party shall not produce any Confidential or Highly Confidential Information

in response to the subpoena without either the prior written consent of the party or person that

designated the documents or information as Confidential or Highly Confidential, or an order of a

court of competent jurisdiction. 

3. The purpose of imposing these duties is to alert the interested parties to the

existence of this Order and to afford the Designating Party in this case an opportunity to try to

protect its confidentiality interests in the court from which the subpoena or order issued. The

Designating Party shall bear the burdens and the expenses of seeking protection in that court of its

confidential material, including seeking a court order relieving the subpoenaed party or person of

the obligations of the subpoena prior to the return date of such subpoena - 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.

9. 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 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 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 execute the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as

Exhibit A.

10. FILING PROTECTED MATERIAL

Without written permission from the Designating Party or court order secured after

appropriate notice to all interested persons, a Party may not file in the public record in this action

any Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any Protected Material must comply

with Civil Local Rule 79-5.

11. FINAL DISPOSITION

Unless otherwise ordered or agreed in writing by the Producing Party, within sixty days after

the final termination of this action, each Receiving Party must return all Protected Material to the

Producing Party. As used in this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts,

compilations, summaries or any other form of reproducing or capturing any of the Protected

Material. With permission in writing from the Designating Party, the Receiving Party may destroy

some or all of the Protected Material instead of returning it. Whether the Protected Material is

returned or destroyed, the Receiving Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party

(and, if not the same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the sixty day deadline that

identifies (by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or destroyed
