ORDER GRANTING JOINT MOTION

FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER

(Doc No. 17)

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; local rules set 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.

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).

2.4. "Highly Confidential - Attorneys' Eyes Only" Information or Items: extremely sensitive

"Confidential Information or Items" whose disclosure to another Party or non-party would create a

substantial risk of serious injury that could not be avoided by less restrictive means.

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."

the time of retention, is not anticipated to become an employee of a Party or a competitor of a Party's.

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 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 "CONFIDENTIAL" or "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") 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").

(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 "CONFIDENTIAL" or "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 item warrant protection, the

Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected portions, specifying whether they

qualify as "Confidential" or as "Highly Confidential - Attorneys' Eyes Only."

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 (in voice to

voice dialogue; other forms of communication are not sufficient) 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. Such 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 and who have signed

the "Agreement to Be Bound by Protective Order" that is attached hereto as Exhibit A;

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

for this litigation and who have signed the "Agreement to Be Bound by Protective Order" (Exhibit A);

(e) court reporters, their staffs, and professional vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for

this litigation and who have signed the "Agreement to Be Bound by Protective Order" (Exhibit A);

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 Counsel

to whom it is reasonably necessary to disclose the information for this litigation and who have signed

the "Agreement to Be Bound by Protective Order" that is attached hereto as Exhibit A;

(b) Experts (as defined in this Order) (1) to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation,

(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;

(d) court reporters, their staffs, and professional vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for

this litigation and who have signed the "Agreement to Be Bound by Protective Order" (Exhibit A); 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 HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL 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 of his or her primary residence, (3) attaches a copy of the Expert's current

resume, (4) identifies the Expert's current employer(s), (5) identifies each person or entity from whom

the Expert has received compensation for work in his or her areas of expertise or to whom the expert has

provided professional services at any time during the preceding five years, and (6) identifies (by name

and number of the case, filing date, and location of court) 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 subject Protected Material to the identified Expert unless, within seven 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 on which it is based.

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

(though direct voice to voice dialogue) to try to resolve the matter by agreement. If no agreement is

reached, the Party seeking to make the disclosure to the Expert 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 that 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 the Designating Party for its refusal

to approve the disclosure.

In any such proceeding the Party opposing 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, 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 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 "Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound" that is attached

hereto as Exhibit A.

10. ENFORCEMENT.

Each individual who receives any "CONFIDENTIAL" or "HIGHLY CONFIDENTIALATTORNEYS' EYES ONLY" pursuant to this Protective Order shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the

Court in any proceeding relating to the performance under, compliance with or violation of this

Protective Order.

11. FILING PROTECTED MATERIAL. 

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 Protected

Material. 

12. 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 same 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.

13. MISCELLANEOUS

13.1. Modification. Nothing herein shall restrict the power of the Court to modify this Protective

Order or any term hereof for good cause shown.

13.2. Right to Further Relief Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any person to seek its

modification by the Court in the future.

13.3. 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 ORDERED.
