CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT & STIP FOR 

PROTECTIVE ORDER

CASE NO. 06-3153 CW 

LA1 6631029.2 

The parties to this action, Plaintiffs Juanita Wynne and Dante Byrd (collectively 

“Plaintiffs”) and Defendants McCormick & Schmick’s Seafood Restaurants, Inc. and 

McCormick & Schmick Restaurant Corp. (“M&S” or “Defendant”), through their counsel of 

record, stipulate and agree to the following: 

1. The provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement shall govern the use and 

handling of all documents, testimony, written responses to discovery, and all other information in 

whatever form produced or given by any party or third party in this action that is designated 

“Confidential” in accordance with the terms hereof. The parties will designate as “Confidential” 

only that information which they believe contains secret, confidential, private and/or proprietary 

information. Each party shall exercise good faith in designating information as “Confidential.”

The designation by any producing party of Documents as Confidential Information shall 

constitute a representation that such Documents have been reviewed by an attorney for the 

producing party and that there is a valid basis for such designation. Mass, indiscriminate, or 

routinized designations are prohibited. If that information or items that a party or non-party 

designated for protection do not qualify for protection at all, that party or non-party must timely 

notify all other parties that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation. 

2. Definition of Documents: “Document” means all written, recorded or 

graphic matter whatsoever, and all copies (identical or non-identical) thereof including, but not 

limited to, pleadings, motions, briefs, responses to discovery, transcripts of testimony, all records 

or information compilations made or maintained by electronic, photographic or mechanical 

means, expressly including computer software and data, and any other document contemplated by 

Federal Rule of Civil Procedure, Rules 26 and 34. 

3. Confidential Information: The term “Confidential Information,” as used in 

this Confidentiality Agreement means: (a) trade secret or other proprietary, confidential, 

research, development, or commercial information protected by applicable law; (b) individual 

personal information (including but not limited to financial, address, telephone, and Social 

Security Number information); and (c) other information deemed in good faith to be protected 

under applicable law as confidential, private, and non-public by a party to this action. The term

“Confidential Information” does not include materials that have been distributed publicly or 

widely distributed to M&S employees, such as the M&S Employee Handbooks and blank 

employment-related forms; and general employment policies of M&S. 

4. Nondisclosure of Confidential Documents: Except as provided below, no 

Confidential Document may be disclosed to any person, and no Confidential Information 

contained within a Confidential Document may be disclosed to any person. A “Confidential 

Document” means any document that contains Confidential Information and bears the legend 

“Confidential.” Interrogatory answers, responses to requests for admission, deposition transcripts 

and exhibits, pleadings, motions, affidavits, and briefs that quote, summarize, or contain materials 

entitled to protection may be accorded status as a Confidential Document, but, to the extent 

feasible, shall be prepared in such a manner that the Confidential Information is bound separately 

from that not entitled to protection. 

5. Permissible Disclosures. Notwithstanding paragraph 4, and subject to 

paragraph 6, Confidential Documents marked “Confidential” and Confidential Information 

contained in such documents may be disclosed to: 

(a) counsel of record for the parties in this action, including in-house 

counsel, who are actively engaged in the conduct of this litigation, 

and the partners, associates, secretaries, paralegal assistants, and 

employees of such counsel to the extent reasonably necessary to 

render professional services in the litigation; 

(b) court officials involved in this litigation (including court reporters, 

persons operating video recording equipment at depositions, and 

any special master appointed by the Court); 

(c) Named Plaintiffs in the complaint; 

(d) interviewees and potential witnesses, including non-party 

witnesses, in preparation for, and in the course of, depositions or 

interviews, or at trial, if, in the reasonable good faith opinion of the

parties’ counsel, examination with respect to such information is 

necessary for legitimate discovery or trial purposes; 

(e) outside consultants or experts (including their employees, 

associates and support staff) retained for the purpose of assisting 

counsel in the litigation;

(f) third-party contractors involved solely in one or more aspects of 

organizing, filing, coding, converting, storing, or retrieving data or 

designing programs for handling data connected with these actions, 

including the performance of such duties in relation to a 

computerized litigation support system; and to employees of thirdparty contractors performing one or more of these functions; 

(g) Mediators;

(h) any person whom Plaintiffs’ and Defendant’s counsel agree, in 

writing, can be provided such information; 

(i) any person designated by the Court in the interest of justice, upon 

such terms as the Court may deem proper; and 

(j) officers and directors of Defendant. 

6. Use of Exhibit A: Prior to disclosure of Confidential Documents marked 

“Confidential” or Confidential Information contained in such documents to any person within 

paragraphs 5(d) – 5(h) above, such person shall agree in advance to be bound by this 

Confidentiality Agreement by signing the form annexed as Exhibit A. Copies of the signed form 

annexed as Exhibit A will be retained by counsel and made available to opposing counsel and/or 

the Court as may be necessary and appropriate in the event of a dispute or disagreement. 

7. Declassification by Party: If any party believes that Documents or 

Information designated “Confidential” do not merit the designation, the party may provide written 

notification to the other party. The notice shall clearly specify the designated information and the 

reason(s) for the belief that the designated information is not properly subject to this 

Confidentiality Agreement. The party giving such notice shall not bring a motion seeking an

order of this Court that the designated Confidential Documents or Confidential Information are 

not properly subject to this Confidentiality Agreement for ten (10) days following placement of 

such notice by the objecting party in the U.S. mail, or five (5) court days following the emailing 

or faxing of a copy of such notice to the other party. Thereafter, the party contending the 

information is not subject to this Confidentiality Agreement may bring a motion seeking an order 

of this Court that the designated Confidential Documents or Confidential Information are not 

properly subject to this Confidentiality Agreement. If such a motion is brought, the designated 

Confidential Documents or Confidential Information shall remain subject to this Confidentiality 

Agreement until the Court makes its determination. At the time for resolution of any such 

motion, the party seeking to hold the information confidential shall have the burden of proving, 

with evidence, that the information designated as confidential should come within the protection 

of this Confidentiality Agreement. Any hearing on such motion may be heard in camera by the 

Court.

8. Declassification By Public: Any interested person or member of the 

general public may challenge a designation that a document is “Confidential” by filing and 

serving on all counsel for the parties to this litigation a written motion setting forth: (1) the 

person’s interest in the document; (2) the basis of the challenge; and (3) the purpose for which the 

document will be used in or outside the scope of the litigation. 

9. Confidential Information in Depositions:

(a) A deponent may, during a deposition, be shown and examined 

about Confidential Documents if the deponent signs the form 

attached as Exhibit A. If the deponent is unwilling to sign Exhibit 

A, counsel for the parties shall meet and confer and endeavor in 

good faith to determine how best to proceed in the manner most 

likely to prevent unauthorized disclosure of Confidential 

Documents or Confidential Information consistent with the 

legitimate ends of accomplishing the intended discovery.

(b) The parties may designate deposition testimony and deposition 

exhibits as confidential on the record during the deposition. The 

parties also may designate pages of the transcript (and exhibits 

thereto) as confidential by notifying in writing all counsel of record, 

the court reporter, and the deponent of the portions of the 

deposition they wish to make subject to this Confidentiality 

Agreement, within fifteen (15) days after the designating party 

receives the transcript of the deposition. This written notification 

shall identify the proposed Confidential Information by page and 

line number from the ASCII or Livenote transcript containing the 

preliminary transcription of the deposition testimony, as well as by 

reference to the phrases that begin and end the designated portion.

Upon receipt of such written notification, the court reporter shall 

mark the designated pages with the legend “Confidential” as 

instructed in the written notification. If a timely designation is 

made, the deposition pages and/or exhibits so designated shall be 

treated as Confidential Documents under this Confidentiality 

Agreement. 

10. Filing Confidential Information With The Court: Confidential Information 

shall not be filed in the public record in this litigation. Any Confidential Information that is filed 

with the Court, and any pleadings, motions, or other papers filed with the Court containing such 

information, shall be filed or attempted to be filed pursuant to Civil L. R. 79-5. Where possible, 

only the portions of filing containing Confidential Information shall be filed with the Court under 

seal. If any Confidential Information is filed with the Court under seal, then the party submitting 

the Confidential Information shall file a public copy of the pleading containing the Confidential 

Information in redacted form. A party’s request pursuant to Civil L. R. 79-5 that a document 

designated Confidential be filed under seal shall not constitute a waiver of that party’s right to 

challenge the propriety of that document’s designation as Confidential.

11. Prior Production of Confidential Information: Confidential Information 

produced before the entry of this order by the Court shall be subject to the provisions of this order 

to the same extent as if the order had been entered by the Court as of the date the Confidential 

Information was produced. 

12. Written or Oral Request, Subpoena or Court Order: In the event any 

person in receipt of Confidential Documents or Confidential Information receives a written or 

oral request, subpoena, or court order seeking disclosure of another party’s Confidential 

Documents or Confidential Information, such person shall, no later than ten (10) days after 

receipt, notify counsel for the party that produced the Confidential Documents or Confidential 

Information of the request, subpoena, or court order and shall provide a copy of the same. Except 

in the case of an order requiring immediate production of the requested information, neither party 

shall disclose the other party’s Confidential Documents or Confidential Information without 

giving the other party an opportunity to seek from this Court an order governing disclosure of the 

requested information. 

13. Client Consultation: Nothing in this Confidentiality Agreement shall 

prevent or otherwise restrict counsel from rendering advice to their clients and, in the course 

thereof, relying generally on examination of Confidential Documents; provided, however, that in 

rendering such advice and otherwise communicating with such clients, counsel shall not make 

specific disclosure of any item so designated except pursuant to the procedures of paragraphs 5 

and 6. 

14. Non-Termination: The provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement shall 

not terminate at the conclusion of this litigation. Within 120 days after the conclusion of this 

litigation, by adjudication (including appeals) or otherwise, the person or party receiving 

documents in this litigation shall return such documents and copies of documents to the person or 

party that produced them, or may destroy all such materials and certify in writing that all such 

materials have been destroyed. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel for the person or party 

who received documents in the litigation 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 Confidential information. Any such archival copies that contain or 

constitute Confidential information remain subject to this Confidentiality Agreement. 

15. Modification Permitted: Nothing in this Confidentiality Agreement shall 

prevent any party or other person from seeking modification of this Confidentiality Agreement or 

from objecting to discovery that it believes to be otherwise improper. 

16. Responsibility of Attorneys: The attorneys of record are responsible for 

employing reasonable measures, consistent with this Confidentiality Agreement, to control 

duplication of, access to, and distribution of copies of Confidential Documents. Parties shall not 

duplicate any Confidential Document except working copies and for filing in court under seal. 

17. No Waiver:

(a) Review of the Confidential Documents or Confidential Information 

by counsel, experts, or consultants for the litigants in this litigation 

shall not waive the confidentiality of the documents or objections to 

production.

(b) The inadvertent, unintentional, or in camera disclosure of 

Confidential Documents or Confidential Information shall not, 

under any circumstances, be deemed a waiver, in whole or in part, 

of any party’s claims of confidentiality. 

(c) The failure of the producing party to designate a document 

produced as a Confidential Document shall not constitute a waiver 

of a claim of confidentiality and shall not estop the producing party 

from subsequently identifying the document as a Confidential 

Document, so long as such designation occurs fifteen (15) days 

before the last date for the filing of summary judgment/adjudication 

motions. The producing party may designate a document produced 

without a designation of confidentiality as a Confidential Document 

by informing all counsel of record in writing of the Bates number of

the document and the producing party’s desire that it thereafter be 

treated as a Confidential Document. 

(d) Nothing contained in this Confidentiality Agreement and no action 

taken pursuant to it shall be deemed a wavier of any party’s right to 

use its own documents with complete discretion. 

(e) Nothing contained in this Confidentiality Agreement and no action 

taken pursuant to it shall prejudice the right of any party to: (a) 

contest the alleged relevancy, admissibility, or discoverability of 

the Confidential Documents or Confidential Information sought; (b) 

object to any discovery requests on any grounds; or (c) seek an 

order compelling discovery with respect to any discovery request. 

18. Trial or Hearings: Nothing in the order shall be construed to affect the 

admissibility of any document, material or information at any trial or hearing; any request for 

confidentiality, closure, or sealing of any hearing or trial must be made to the judge then 

presiding.

19. Integration of Agreement: This Confidentiality Agreement memorializes 

all prior oral understandings and/or agreements between the parties regarding the treatment of 

Confidential Documents and Confidential Information. In the event that any part of this 

Confidentiality Agreement is not “so ordered” by the court so that the court procedures identified 

herein cannot be implemented, the parties agree that: (a) all other procedures described herein 

regarding the treatment of Confidential Documents and Confidential Information will still be 

binding upon all signatories to this Confidentiality Agreement. The parties further agree that, in 

the event that any court procedures identified herein cannot be implemented, the parties, subject 

to paragraph 14: (a) will make all reasonable efforts to protect against the unauthorized disclosure 

of Confidential Documents or Confidential Information; and (b) will enter into good faith 

negotiations to create a new Confidentiality Agreement that will satisfy the Court.
