The parties in this case, by and through their counsel of record, hereby stipulate, and 

request this Court to order, that Exhibit 26 (ECF 54-25) to the Declaration of T. Kennedy Helm in 

Support of Plaintiff’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment (ECF 54) be sealed or locked. 

Plaintiff will replace the current Exhibit 26 with a new Exhibit 26 containing no confidential 

material. This joint request is based on the following:

1. Defendants inadvertently did not clearly designate the material comprising Exhibit 

26 (ECF 54-25) as confidential pursuant to the terms of the Protective Order (ECF 

30) until after Plaintiff had filed it as an exhibit and Plaintiff did not give notice 

beforehand to Defendants that it was filing ECF 54-25.

2. Defendant State of California, appearing by and through the Department of 

California Highway Patrol (CHP), greys out sections of the Highway Patrol Manual 

(HPM) to indicate material which it restricts from public disclosure because such

disclosure could jeopardize officer safety.

3. Plaintiff’s current Exhibit 26 (ECF 54-25) contains a substantial amount of greyedout text in HPM 70.6, Chapter 2.

4. Defendants are concerned that the material in Exhibit 26 (ECF 54-25) should not be 

in the public domain for officer-safety reasons.

5. Plaintiff agrees to file a new Exhibit 26 which Defendants agree contains no 

confidential material that requires it to be sealed. 

SO STIPULATED.
