No. C-04-3736 MJJ 

ORDER REGARDING STIPULATED

PROTECTIVE ORDER

On May 24, 2005, the parties filed a Stipulated Protective Order. The Court orders the parties to

submit a revised Stipulated Protective Order complying with following requirements:

1) When defining what constitutes “Confidential Information,” add a provision which provides

that the information sought to be protected is properly subject to protection under FRCP

Rule 26(c) and that counsel shall not designate any discovery material “CONFIDENTIAL”

without first making a good faith determination that protection is warranted;

2) Provide detailed instructions for filing confidential materials under seal. In addition to

placing documents in a sealed envelope with instructions that the document is filed pursuant

to the Stipulated Protective Order and that the envelope is not to be opened absent further

order of the court, the envelope should be labeled to identify the title of the case, the case

number, and the title of the document;

designation;

4) Add a provision placing the burden of proof on the party seeking protection to show that

acknowledgment that the party agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of this Court if any

dispute arises over their use of the information; and

6) Designate a time limit on the Court’s jurisdiction to enforce the terms of the Order (e.g. six

months after final termination of the action).
