3. Plaintiffs shall preserve the confidentiality and privacy of all Confidential Official 

Information. 

4. The Confidential Official Information shall be made available only to plaintiffs, 

deponents or trial witnesses, counsel of record, or experts engaged by the parties or counsel of record.

The persons receiving such documents or information shall use them solely for the purpose of this 

litigation. Confidential Official Information may be disclosed to persons only to the extent necessary 

for the preparation or trial of this case. Confidential Official Information shall not be disclosed 

directly or indirectly to any other person other than as provided in this Order, except by agreement of 

the City. Unauthorized disclosure of the substance, a summary, or any portion of a confidential 

document constitutes a violation of this Order. 

5. In the event that any Confidential Official Information is disclosed to anyone beyond 

the scope of that permitted by this Order, whether by agreement or subsequent order, each person 

receiving such disclosure shall be shown a copy of this Order and shall sign a statement agreeing to 

be bound by this Order. Defendants shall be provided notice of such disclosure at the time the 

documents are returned. This Order is enforceable in contempt proceedings. 

6. Any use of Confidential Official Information, or comment on the contents of any 

Confidential Official Information in pleadings or documents filed with the court pursuant to this 

litigation, shall be filed in sealed envelopes. The sealed envelopes shall be endorsed with the caption 

of this litigation, and an indication of the nature of the contents of the envelopes and a statement 

substantially in the following form: 

This envelope contains documents that are filed in this case pursuant to a 

Protective Order and are not to be opened nor the contents thereof to be 

displayed or revealed except by further order of the Court or written consent of 

the City and County of San Francisco. 

7. Nothing in this Order shall be deemed to: (1) limit or waive any right of any party to 

resist or compel discovery with respect to documents or other material which may be claimed to be 

privileged or otherwise protected or protectable; (2) preclude any party at any time from seeking and

obtaining from the court, on an appropriate showing, additional protection, including an order that 

material shall not be produced at all; or (3) constitute a ruling on the admissibility of any documents 

or other material as evidence in this action. 

8. All documents covered by this Order and copies thereof will be returned to the City at 

the termination of this litigation. On final disposition of this case, plaintiff’s counsel shall within one 

month after the final disposition of this case, without request or further order of this Court, return all 

Information to the Deputy City Attorney of record in this matter. The provisions of this Order, 

insofar as they restrict the communication and use of the documents or information covered by this 

Order, shall, without written permission of the City or further order of the court, continue to be 

binding after the conclusion of the action. 

9. Should plaintiffs fail to comply with this agreement, plaintiffs and plaintiffs' counsel 

could be liable for all costs associated with enforcing this agreement, including but not limited to all 

attorney fees in amounts to be determined by the court. 

10. Nothing in this agreement shall prevent Plaintiffs from seeking a court order 

challenging the confidential designation by defendants of these documents.
