[PROPOSED] STIPULATED 

PROTECTIVE ORDER

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 may 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 from public disclosure 

and use extends only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment 

under the applicable legal principles. The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 11.3, 

below, that this Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information

public record through trial or otherwise; and (b) any information known to the Receiving Party 

prior to the disclosure or obtained by the Receiving Party after the disclosure from a source who 

obtained the information lawfully and under no obligation of confidentiality to the Designating 

Party. Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by a separate agreement or order.

4. DURATION

shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in writing or a court order

otherwise directs. Final disposition shall be deemed to be the later of (1) dismissal of all claims 

and defenses in this action, with or without prejudice; and (2) final judgment herein after the 

completion and exhaustion of all appeals, rehearings, remands, trials, or reviews of this action, 

including the time limits for filing any motions or applications for extension of time pursuant to 

applicable law.

5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL

5.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. Each Party or NonParty 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 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 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.

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, Disclosure

or Discovery 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 (e.g., paper or electronic documents, but

excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the Producing Party

affix the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” to 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).

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.” 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 

“CONFIDENTIAL” legend to 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). 

(b) for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or trial proceedings, that the

Designating Party identify on the record, before the close of the deposition, hearing, or other 

proceeding, all protected 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.” If only a 

portion or portions of the information or item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the 

extent practicable, shall identify the protected portion(s). 

5.3 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent failure to designate 

qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the Designating Party’s right to 

secure protection under this Order for such material. Upon timely correction of a designation, the 

Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance 

with the provisions of this Order.

6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS

6.1 Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a designation of

confidentiality at any time. Unless a prompt challenge to a Designating Party’s confidentiality

designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable, substantial unfairness, unnecessary economic

burdens, or a 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. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute resolution process by

providing written notice of each designation it is challenging and describing the basis for each

challenge. To avoid ambiguity as to whether a challenge has been made, the written notice must

recite that the challenge to confidentiality is being made in accordance with this specific

paragraph of the Protective Order. The parties shall attempt to resolve each challenge in good

faith and must begin the process by conferring directly (in voice to voice dialogue; other forms

of communication are not sufficient) within 14 days of the date of service of notice. 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 or establishes that the

Designating Party is unwilling to participate in the meet and confer process in a timely manner.

6.3 Judicial Intervention. If the Parties cannot resolve a challenge without court intervention,

the Challenging Party shall file and serve a motion to challenge the designation of 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.

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 Challenging Party to 

sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived the confidentiality designation, 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 until the court rules on the challenge. 

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 12 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 Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably necessary to disclose the information 

for this litigation;

(b) the officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of the Receiving

Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed the 

“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 

(c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is

reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and 

Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A);

(d) the court and its personnel;

(e) court reporters and their staff, professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and

Professional Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this litigation; 

(f) during their depositions, witnesses in the action to whom disclosure is reasonably

necessary and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), 

unless otherwise agreed by the Designating Party or ordered by the court. 

(g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a custodian or

other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information. 

8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN OTHER

LITIGATION 

If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation that compels 

disclosure of any information or items designated in this action as “CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party 

must: 

(a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall include a

copy of the subpoena or court order; 

(b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order to issue in the

other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena or order is subject to this 

Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and 

(c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued by the

Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected.

If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with the 

subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this action as 

“CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the subpoena or order issued, 

unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s permission. The Designating Party shall 

bear the burden and expense 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 unauthorized 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. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE PROTECTED

MATERIAL

When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain inadvertently 

produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection, the obligations of the 

Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This 

provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure may be established in an e-discovery 

order that provides for production without prior privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of 

Evidence 502(d) and (e), insofar as the parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of 

a communication or information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work product 

protection, the parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order 

submitted to the court. 

11. MISCELLANEOUS

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

modification by the court in the future.

11.2 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.

11.3 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. A Party that seeks to file under seal any 

Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material may only be filed 

under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the specific Protected Material at 

issue. Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5, a sealing order will issue only upon a request establishing 

that the Protected Material at issue is privileged, protectable as a trade secret, or otherwise entitled 

to protection under the law. If a Receiving Party's request to file Protected Material under seal 

pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(d) is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the 

information in the public record pursuant to Civil Local Rule 79-5(e) unless otherwise instructed 

by the court. 

12. FINAL DISPOSITION

Within 60 days after the final disposition of this action, as defined in paragraph 4, each

Receiving Party must return all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such 

material. As used in this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, 

compilations, summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected 

Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving Party must if 

requested submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same person or 

entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that (1) identifies (by category, where 

appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or destroyed and (2) affirms that the 

Receiving Party has not retained any copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other 

format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, 

Counsel are entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, trial, deposition, 

and hearing transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial exhibits, expert 

reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert 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).
