As requested and agreed to by Plaintiffs Robert Garneau, Courtney Johnson, Rhonda Perry, 

David Turner, Jane Reeves, Scott Reeves, Lisa Hendrickson, Nancy Housell, Jeffrey Olkowski and 

Vaughn Kerkorian (“Plaintiffs”) and Defendants Nissan North America, Inc. and Nissan Motor Co., 

Ltd. (“Nissan” or “Defendants”) (collectively, the “Parties”), the parties request that the Court issue 

this proposed Protective Order (the “Protective Order”) to facilitate document disclosure and 

production in the above-captioned action (referred to as the “Litigation”) under the Local Rules of 

Northern District of California and the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Unless modified pursuant 

to the terms contained in this Protective Order, this Protective Order shall apply to the Litigation 

and remain in effect through the conclusion of the Litigation. 

In support of this Protective Order, the parties state that: 

1. The Litigation concerns claims that certain vehicles have an alleged defect in the 

Forward Emergency Braking or Automatic Emergency Braking (alternatively “AEB/FEB system”). 

Documents and/or information containing confidential proprietary and business information and/or 

trade secrets (“Confidential Information”) that bear significantly on the parties’ claims or defenses 

is likely to be disclosed or produced during the course of discovery in the Litigation; 

2. The parties to the Litigation may assert that public dissemination and disclosure of 

Confidential Information could severely injure or damage the party disclosing or producing the 

Confidential Information and could place that party at a competitive disadvantage; 

3. Counsel for the party or parties receiving Confidential Information are presently 

without sufficient information to accept the representation(s) made by the party or parties producing 

Confidential Information as to the confidential, proprietary and/or trade secret nature of such 

Confidential Information; and 

4. To protect the respective interests of the parties and to facilitate the progress of 

disclosure and discovery in this Litigation, the following Protective Order should issue: 

IT IS THEREFORE STIPULATED THAT: 

1. Documents, including photographs, drawings, films, videotapes or other writings, 

including lists or compilations thereof, answers to interrogatories, responses to other discovery 

requests and deposition testimony or discovery by any party in this Litigation that qualify for

protection under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c) are referred to as “Confidential Material.” 

Except as otherwise indicated below, all documents, including photographs, drawings, films, 

videotapes or other writings, including lists or compilations thereof, answers to interrogatories, 

responses to other discovery requests and deposition testimony designated by the producing party 

as “Confidential,” “Subject to Protective Order,” or any combination thereof, and which are 

disclosed or produced to the attorneys for the other parties to this Litigation are Confidential 

Material and are entitled to Confidential treatment as described below. 

2. 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. The designating party must designate for protection only those 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 designations are prohibited. 

Designations that are shown to clearly 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 designating 

party’s attention that information or items that it designated for protection do not qualify for 

protection, that designating party must promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the 

mistaken designation. 

3. Confidential Material shall not include (a) advertising materials, (b) materials that 

on their face show that they have been published to the general public, or (c) documents that have 

been submitted to any governmental entity without request for Confidential treatment. 

4. All documents marked Confidential and identified as exhibits to the deposition are 

subject to this Order. All deposition testimony shall be treated as Confidential and subject to the 

full protection of this Order for forty-five (45) days following the deposition. After such time, only 

those portions of any transcript designated as “Confidential” by a designating party shall be deemed 

Confidential. To designate a portion of a transcript as “Confidential”, a party must provide written

notice to all Parties and the stenographer identifying, by page and line number, the Confidential 

testimony. 

5. If at any time during the Litigation a party disputes the designation of discovery 

material as Confidential, the objecting party will notify the designating party in writing of such 

dispute, and request in writing a conference for the parties to confer in a good faith effort to resolve 

the dispute. It shall be the responsibility of counsel for the objecting party to arrange for this 

conference within fourteen (14) days of the request for a conference. The objecting party’s notice 

will identify the material in dispute and explain the basis for the objection. If no response is 

provided within fourteen (14) days of the objecting party’s request for a conference, then the 

Confidential Material in dispute will no longer be subject to Confidential treatment as provided in 

this Stipulated Protective Order. 

5.1. If the parties cannot resolve a challenge without court intervention, the 

designating party shall file and serve a motion to retain confidentiality under Civil Local Rule 7 

(and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5, if applicable) within 21 days of the initial notice of 

challenge or within 14 days of the parties agreeing that the meet and confer process will not resolve 

their dispute, whichever is earlier. Each such motion must be accompanied by a competent 

declaration affirming that the movant has complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed 

in the preceding paragraph. Failure by the designating party to make such a motion including the 

required declaration within 21 days (or 14 days, if applicable) shall automatically waive the 

confidentiality designation for each challenged designation. In addition, the objecting party may 

file a motion challenging a confidentiality designation at any time if there is good cause for doing 

so. Any motion brought pursuant to this provision must be accompanied by a competent declaration 

affirming that the movant has complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed by the 

preceding paragraph. 

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

designating party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose (e.g., to harass 

or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the objecting party to 

sanctions. Unless the designating party has waived the confidentiality designation by failing to file

a motion to retain confidentiality as described above, all parties shall continue to afford the material 

in question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the designating party’s designation 

until the Court rules on the challenge. 

6. Confidential Treatment. Confidential Material and any information contained 

therein shall not be used or shown, disseminated, copied, or in any way communicated to anyone 

for any purpose whatsoever, except as provided below. Confidential Material may be copied only 

by the parties’ counsel in the Litigation or by personnel or outside vendors assisting such counsel 

and only for purposes permitted by this Protective Order, and control and distribution of 

Confidential Material and copies thereof will be the responsibility of such counsel, who will 

maintain all written assurances executed by such persons as provided in Paragraph 8. 

7. Confidential Material and any information contained therein shall be disclosed only 

to the following persons (“Qualified Persons”): 

a. The named parties, including the officers, directors, and employees 

(including House Counsel) of the parties to whom disclosure is reasonably 

necessary for the Litigation; 

b. counsel of record in the Litigation for the designating party or party receiving 

Confidential Material or any information contained therein; 

c. Employees of such counsel (excluding experts and investigators) assigned 

to and necessary to assist such counsel in the preparation and trial of the 

Litigation; 

d. An independent contractor or expert retained by counsel to provide 

assistance, expert advice, technical consultation, language translation, or 

testimony in the Litigation and the employees of any such contractors, 

experts, consultants or similar persons when working in connection with the 

Litigation under direct supervision of said person;

e. Court reporters transcribing depositions in the Litigation; 

f. Any witness at deposition (as contemplated by Paragraph 4), trial, or hearing

g. The Court (including the Court’s administrative and clerical staff). 

Confidential Material shall not be disclosed to any other person or entity without the prior 

written consent of the designating party or order of the Court. Any disclosure shall be only to the 

extent reasonably necessary for the effective prosecution and defense of the claims in the Litigation. 

Confidential Material and any information contained therein shall be used by the receiving party or 

parties solely for the prosecution of the Litigation and shall not be used by the receiving party or 

parties for any other purpose or in any other litigation. 

8. Prior to the disclosure of any of the materials or information covered by this 

Protective Order to persons identified in paragraph 7 (d)-(f) of this Order, counsel disclosing the 

materials or information shall present the person with a copy of this Order. After reading the Order, 

such persons shall initial each page of a copy of the Order and shall sign the attached form of 

“Acknowledgment of Protective Order” (the “Acknowledgement”). Copies of each such signed 

Order and Acknowledgement shall be maintained by counsel disclosing the materials or 

information. In the event that any of these individuals are identified or designated as witnesses or 

as experts who may testify in the Litigation, a copy of each such signed Order and 

Acknowledgement shall be provided to opposing counsel at the time of the designation. 

9. Counsel of record for the party or parties receiving Confidential Material may create 

an index of the Confidential Material and furnish it to attorneys of record representing or having 

represented parties involved in litigation involving the claims alleged in this suit against the party 

or parties disclosing or producing the Confidential Material. The index may only identify the 

document, date, author, and general subject matter of any Protected Document, but may not reveal 

the substance of any such document. Counsel for the party or parties receiving Confidential 

Material shall maintain a current log of the names and addresses of persons to whom the index was 

furnished. 

10. The term “copy” as used herein means any photographic, mechanical or 

computerized copy or reproduction of any document or thing, or any verbatim transcript, in whole 

or in part, of such document or thing.

11. To the extent that Confidential Material or information contained therein are used 

in depositions, such documents or information shall remain subject to the provisions of this 

Protective Order. 

12. Any court reporter or transcriber who reports or transcribes testimony in the 

Litigation shall agree that all “Confidential” information designated as such under this Order shall 

remain “Confidential” and shall not be disclosed by them, except pursuant to the terms of this 

Protective Order, and that any notes or transcriptions of such testimony (and any accompanying 

exhibits) will be retained by the reporter or delivered to counsel of record. 

13. Without written permission from the designating party or a court order secured after 

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

any Confidential Material. A party that seeks to file under seal any Confidential Material must 

comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Confidential Material may only be filed under seal pursuant 

to a court order authorizing the sealing of the specific Confidential Material at issue. Pursuant to 

Civil Local Rule 79-5, a sealing order will issue only upon a request establishing that the 

Confidential Material at issue is privileged, protectable as a trade secret, or otherwise entitled to 

protection under the law. If a party’s request to file Confidential Material under seal pursuant to 

Civil Local Rule 79-5(d) is denied by the Court, then the party may file the information in the public 

record pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(e), unless otherwise instructed by the Court. 

14. Inadvertent or unintentional production of documents or information containing 

Confidential Information that are not designated “Confidential” shall not be deemed a waiver, in 

whole or in part, of a claim for Confidential treatment. 

15. Documents unintentionally produced without designation as “Confidential” at any 

time during the Litigation may be retroactively designated by notice in writing of the designated 

classification applicable to each document by Bates number, and by providing replacement copies 

of such documents with the appropriate designation, unless such documents have already been filed 

with the Court. Upon receipt of the replacement documents, the receiving party shall thereafter 

return the documents being replaced to the producing party. Such documents shall be treated as 

“Confidential” from the date written notice of the designation is provided to the receiving party. A

person disclosing any materials that are subsequently designated as “Confidential” shall in good 

faith assist the party making the supplemental designation in retrieving such materials from all 

recipients not entitled to such materials under the terms of this Protective Order and to prevent 

further disclosures except as authorized under the terms of this Protective Order. Documents to be 

inspected shall be treated as “Confidential” during inspection. At the time of copying for the 

receiving parties, such inspected documents shall be stamped prominently “Confidential” by the 

producing party. 

16. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) the production of a privileged or workproduct-protected document, whether inadvertent or otherwise, is not a waiver of privilege or 

protection from discovery in this case or in any other federal or state proceeding. Said protection 

exists with respect to such document or other documents or communications, written or oral, 

including, without limitation, other communications referred to in the documents produced. Upon 

request, such inadvertently produced documents, and all copies thereof, shall be sent to the 

producing party, sequestered or destroyed within five (5) days of the date of the request, unless 

such documents have already been filed with the Court. Furthermore, a party’s production shall 

not be deemed a waiver of any party’s right to object for any reason to the admission of any 

document or thing into evidence, nor shall the production be deemed an admission of its 

admissibility or relevance. Nothing in this Paragraph shall prejudice the right of any party to seek 

discovery or communications, documents and things as to which a claim of attorney-client privilege 

or attorney work-product has been made. 

17. The party or parties receiving Confidential Material shall not under any 

circumstances sell, offer for sale, advertise, or publicize Confidential Material or any information 

contained therein. 

18. If any party receives a subpoena from any non-party to this Protective Order seeking 

production or disclosure of Confidential Material, the subpoenaed party shall give notice, as soon 

as practicable and in no event more than three (3) business days after receiving the subpoena and 

at least seven (7) business days before providing materials responsive to the subpoena, to counsel

for the designating party, which notice will enclose a copy of the subpoena, such that the 

designating party may assert its rights, if any, to non-disclosure. 

19. Any documents produced by a non-party witness in discovery in the Litigation 

pursuant to subpoena or otherwise may be designated by such non-party as “Confidential” under 

the terms of this Order, and such designation shall have the same force and effect, and create the 

same duties, obligations, and remedies as if made by one of the parties hereto. 

20. After termination of the Litigation, the provisions of this Protective Order shall 

continue to be binding, except with respect to those documents and information that become a 

matter of public record. This Court retains and shall have continuing jurisdiction over the parties 

and recipients of the Confidential Material for enforcement of the provisions of this Protective 

Order following termination of the Litigation. 

21. Within thirty (30) days of termination of the Litigation by dismissal, judgment, or 

settlement, including any appeals, counsel for the party or parties receiving Confidential Material 

shall return the Confidential Material, including all copies to counsel for the party or parties 

disclosing or producing the Confidential Material or alternatively, the parties shall provide 

certification under oath under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America 

confirming that counsel have destroyed all documents within their possession, custody or control. 

The party or parties receiving Confidential Material shall undertake reasonable and good faith 

efforts to ensure that any person to whom they provided copies of any Confidential Information 

complies with this obligation. This provision will not apply to court filings or file copies of 

pleadings, briefs or correspondence or other work product maintained by the parties’ respective 

counsel in the ordinary course of business. 

22. This Protective Order shall be binding on any party to this Protective Order or any 

person having executed the attached Exhibit A. This Protective Order also shall be binding upon 

the parties and their attorneys, successors, executors, personal representatives, administrators, heirs, 

legal representatives, assigns, subsidiaries, divisions, employees, agents, independent contractors, 

or other persons or organizations over which they have control.

upon their agreeing to be bound by the provisions of this Protective Order. This provision does not 

prejudice any party’s rights to otherwise object to the production or disclosure of Confidential 

Material or non-confidential documents or other information to a party added to the Litigation. 

24. This Protective Order is without prejudice to the right of any party to move the Court 

for an order for good cause shown for protection of Confidential Material sought by or produced 

through discovery, which protection is different from or in addition to that provided for in this 

Protective Order, and such right is expressly reserved.
