5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL 

5.1 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in this 

Stipulated Protective Order (see, e.g., paragraph 5.2, below), or as otherwise stipulated or ordered, 

naterial that qualifies for protection under this Order must be clearly so designated before the 

naterial is disclosed or produced. 

Designation in conformity with this Stipulated Protective Order requires: 

(a) for information in documentary form, that the Producing Party affix 

he legend "CONFIDENTIAL" or a substantially similar legend on each page that contains 

xotected material. 

A Party or non-party that makes original documents or materials available for inspection 

leed not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated which material 

.t would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before the designation, all of the 

naterial made available for inspection shall be deemed "CONFIDENTIAL." After the inspecting 

Party identifies the documents it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine 

which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Stipulated Protective 

3rder. Before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the appropriate 

legend ("CONFIDENTIAL" or similar legend) on each page that contains Protected Material. 

(b) for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or trial 

proceedings, the Party or non-party may identify on the record, at the time testimony is given, the 

portions that are Protected Material. 

Transcript pages designated on the record as containing Protected Material must be 

separately bound by the court reporter, who must affix to the top of each such page the legend 

"CONFIDENTIAL" as instructed by the Party or non-party offering or sponsoring the witness or 

presenting the testimony. Nothing about this method of designating materials as 

"CONFIDENTIAL" prevents a party from marking a portion of any transcript pursuant to 

subparagraph 5.1 (a) above, or from otherwise attempting to bring a portion of any transcript 

under the protection of this Order.

(c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and 

or any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the exterior of 

he container or containers in which the information or item is stored the legend 

'CONFIDENTIAL." If only portions of the information or item warrant protection, the Producing 

'arty, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected portions. 

(d) for information produced in electronic form, the Receiving Party 

vill treat all electronically produced information as "CONFIDENTIAL" unless specifically, 

:xpressly marked or designated otherwise in writing by the Producing Party. 

5.2 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. An inadvertent failure to designate 

lualified information or items as "Confidential" does not, standing alone, waive the Designating 

'arty's right to secure protection under this Stipulated Protective Order for such material. If 

naterial appropriately is designated as "Confidential" after the material initially is produced, the 

ieceiving Party, on notification of the designation, must make reasonable efforts to assure that the 

naterial is treated in accordance with the provisions of this Stipulated Protective Order. The 

ieceiving Party, however, is not responsible for harm, if any, caused by the dissemination of the 

naterial before it is marked as Protected Material. 

5.3 The inadvertent production of anv privileged material, material subject to 

protection by the attorney work product doctrine or otherwise Protected Material shall not be 

leemed a waiver or impairment of any claim of confidentiality, privilege or protection, including, 

3ut not limited to, the attorney client privilege and the protection afforded to work product 

naterials, or the subject matter of those materials. Upon discovering or receiving notice from a 

Party that any such material has been inadvertently produced, the Receiving Party shall make a 

good faith effort to return all such material to the Producing Party, provided that, if the recipient of 

inadvertently produced material disputes that such material is privileged, the recipient shall be 

entitled to retain the material only for purposes of presenting the discovery dispute to the Court.

6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS AND SECTION 8 

3B JECTIONS 

6.1 Timing of Challenges. A Party waives its right to challenge a 

:onfidentiality designation by electing not to mount a challenge within 60 days after the 

lesignation is made. 

6.2 Meet and Confer. A Party that elects to initiate a challenge to a Designating 

?arty's confidentiality designation must do so in good faith and must begin the process by 

:onferring directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other forms of communication are not sufficient) 

~ith Trial Counsel for the Designating Party. In conferring, the challenging Party must explain 

the basis for its belief that the confidentiality designation is not proper and must give the 

Designating Party an opportunity to review the designated material, to reconsider the 

;ircumstances, 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 or objection to providing the information to the U.S.P.T.O. after 

considering the justification offered by the Designating Party may file and serve a motion under 

Civil Local Rule 7 (and in compliance with Civil Local Rule 79-5, if applicable) 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. 

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

,ubpoena or order is the subject of this Stipulated Protective Order. In addition, the Receiving

iction that caused the subpoena or order to issue, and, if requested by the Designating Party, must

The purpose of imposing these duties is to alert the interested parties to the existence of 

his Stipulated Protective Order and to afford the Designating Party in this case an opportunity to 

ry to protect its confidentiality interests in the court from which the subpoena or order issued or 

he Court where the present case is pending. The Designating Party shall bear the burdens and the

Protected Materials to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and provide the Disclosing Party 15

Party may file the Protected Material with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office under the 

procedures of MPEP 2001.06(c). Objections by the Designating Party may be resolved judicially 

under Section 6 herein.

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
