Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26 and this Court’s Local Rules, in order to 

protect the confidentiality of, and the rights to, information and documents developed and 

disclosed in connection with this litigation, and to facilitate discovery by and among the parties 

to this action and from third parties, the parties to this Stipulation (the “Parties”) hereby stipulate 

and request the Court to order that the following Order for the Protection of Confidential and 

Proprietary Information and Material (“Order”) be issued 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. 

 2.3 “Confidential” Information or Items: information (regardless of how 

generated, stored or maintained) or tangible things that qualify for protection under standards

developed under F.R.Civ.P. 26(c). “Confidential” material shall be interpreted to encompass any 

confidential, proprietary or otherwise sensitive information as to which the Designating Party 

customarily takes steps to limit or prevent its disclosure or misuse, including trade secrets as 

defined under California Civil Code § 3426.1(d) and applicable case law; other confidential and 

proprietary technical, research, or development information; commercial, financial, budgeting 

and/or accounting information; information about existing and potential customers, marketing 

and branding studies, performance and projections, business strategies, decisions and/or 

negotiations, and/or pricing; and confidential and proprietary information about affiliates, 

parents, subsidiaries, and third parties with whom the parties to this action have had business 

relationships. A party or third party may designate as “CONFIDENTIAL” any non-public 

material that it supplies, discloses, produces, files or uses in connection with this proceeding and 

that it does not wish to be disclosed to the public. 

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

extremely sensitive “Confidential” material whose disclosure to another Party or non-party 

would create extreme substantial risk of serious injury that could not be avoided by less 

restrictive means. A party or third party may designate as “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –

ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” any non-public material that it supplies, discloses, produces or 

uses in connection with this proceeding when it has a good-faith belief that the disclosure of such 

material to the adverse party may have a material adverse effect on the Designating Party. 

 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 as “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 current employee of a Party or of 

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

employee of a Party or a competitor of a Party. 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 Stipulation and 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 

Case 5:06-cv-06607-JF Document 19 Filed 02/27/07 Page 4 of 15

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”) upon 

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 

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 Stipulated Protective 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 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 items warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent 

practicable, shall identify the protected portions, specifying whether they qualify as 

“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.” 

 (d) for information obtained from a Third Party: If a Party serves a Third 

Party with a subpoena or a public records act request, it shall also serve a copy of this Order 

along with said subpoena/public records act request. Said Third Party may designate any item or 

document as “CONFIDENTIAL” and/or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES 

ONLY” pursuant to the terms of this Order. Additionally, any items or documents received from 

that Third Party shall be treated as having been designated "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – 

ATTORNEYS EYES ONLY” for a period of thirty days, during which time each party shall 

have an opportunity to review said items and/or documents and designate same as 

CONFIDENTIAL” and/or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”. If 

the parties dispute the designation of any document or item, the designation affording the highest 

level of protection shall remain in place until resolution of the issue, whether by agreement of the 

Parties or by court Order. 

 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.

 6.1 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 (including by voice dialogue) 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 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. 

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 (Case No. CV-06607). Such 

C06-06607).

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

described in this Order. When the litigation has been terminated, a Receiving Party must comply 

with the provisions of section 11 below (FINAL DISPOSITION). 

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

in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons authorized under this Order. 

 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 

as employees of said Counsel to whom it is reasonably necessary to disclose the information for 

this litigation; 

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

Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have 

signed the “Agreement to Be Bound by Protective Order” (Exhibit A); 

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

disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed the “Agreement to Be 

Bound by Protective Order” (Exhibit A); 

 (d) the Court and its personnel; 

 (e) court reporters, their staffs, and professional vendors to whom 

disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation; 

 (f) during their depositions, witnesses in the action to whom disclosure is 

reasonably necessary and who have signed the “Agreement to Be Bound by Protective Order” 

(Exhibit A) or who have agreed to be bound by the terms of the Order on the record. Pages of 

transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that reveal Protected Material must be 

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

under this Stipulated Protective Order. 

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

 7.3 Disclosure of “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES

ONLY” 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 

“HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” only to: 

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

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

information for this litigation; 

 (b) Experts (as defined in this Order) (1) to whom disclosure is reasonably 

necessary for this litigation, and (2) who have signed the “Agreement to Be Bound by Protective 

Order” (Exhibit A) and (3) as to whom the procedures set forth in paragraph 7.4, below, have 

been followed; 

 (c) the Court and its personnel; 

 (d) court reporters, their staffs, and professional vendors to whom 

disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation; and 

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

7.4. PROCEDURES FOR APPROVING DISCLOSURE OF “HIGHLY 

CONFIDENTIAL-ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” INFORMATION OR ITEMS TO EXPERTS:

 (a) Unless otherwise ordered by the court or agreed in writing by the 

Designating Party, a Party that seeks to disclose to an “Expert” (as defined in this Order) any 

information or item that has been designated “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL –ATTORNEYS’ 

EYES ONLY” first must make a written request to the Designating Party that (1) identifies the 

specific information that the Receiving Party seeks permission to disclose to the Expert, (2) sets 

forth the full name of the Expert and the city and state or his or her primary residence; (3) 

attaches a copy of the Expert’s current resume, (4) identifies the Expert’s current employer(s) 

and recent employers, (5) identifies, to the best of the Expert’s reasonable ability, each person or 

entity form whom the Expert has received compensation for work in his or her area of expertise 

or to whom the Expert has provided professional services at any time during the preceding five 

years and (6) identifies (by name, number of the case, fling date and location of court) to the best 

of the Expert’s reasonable ability, any litigation in connection with which the Expert has

provided any professional services during the preceding five years. 

(b) A Party that makes a request and provides the information specified in the 

preceding paragraph may disclose the Protected Material to the identified Expert unless, within 

seven (7) court days of delivering the request, the Party receives a written objection from the 

Designating Party. Any such objection must set forth in detail the grounds upon which it is 

based.

(c) A Party that receives a timely written objection must meet and confer with the 

Designating Party (preferably by or including voice-to-voice dialogue) to try to resolve the 

matter by agreement. If no agreement is reached, the Party seeking to make the disclosure may 

file a motion seeking permission from the court to do so. Any such motion must describe the 

circumstances with specificity, set forth in detail the reasons for which the disclosure to the 

expert is reasonably necessary, assess the risk of harm that the disclosure would entail and 

suggest any additional means that might be used to reduce the risk. In addition, any such motion 

must be accompanied by a competent declaration in which the movant describes the parties’ 

efforts to resolve the matter by agreement (i.e., the extent and the content of the meet and confer 

discussions) and sets forth the reasons advanced by Designating Party for its refusal to approve 

the disclosure.

In any such proceeding, the Party opposing the disclosure to the Expert shall bear the 

burden of proving that the risk of harm that the disclosure would entail (under the safeguards 

proposed) outweighs the Receiving Party’s need to disclose the Protected Material to its Expert. 

8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN 

OTHER LITIGATION.

 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 or email, 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.

 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 Protective Order. In addition, the Receiving Party 

must deliver a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order promptly to the Party in the other action 

that caused the subpoena or order to issue. 

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

existence of this Protective 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 – 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 Stipulated Protective Order, the 

Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized 

disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve or destroy 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 to execute the “Acknowledgement and 

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

10. FILING PROTECTED MATERIAL. Without written permission from the 

Designating Party or a court order secured after appropriate notice to all interest 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 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 and that affirms that the Receiving Party 

has not retained any copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or other forms of reproducing or 

capturing any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel are entitled to 

retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, transcripts, legal memoranda, 

correspondence or attorney work product, even if such materials contain Protected Material. 

Any such archival copies that contain or constitute Protected Material remain subject to this 

Protective Order as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION) above. 

12. MISCELLANEOUS.

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

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

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

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

producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this Stipulated Protective 

Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any ground to use in evidence of any of 

the material covered by this Protective Order. 

IT IS SO STIPULATED THROUGH COUNSEL OF RECORD.
