1. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS 

Disclosure and discovery in this action may involve the production of information for 

which special protection from public disclosure and from use for any purpose other than 

prosecuting, defending, attempting to settle or setting this litigation would be warranted under 

applicable law. Accordingly, the Parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to enter the 

following Stipulation and [Proposed] Protective Order Regarding Confidentiality (“Protective 

Order”). The Parties acknowledge that this Protective Order does not confer blanket protections 

on all disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection it affords extends only to the 

information or items entitled to treatment as confidential under the applicable legal principles. 

The Parties further acknowledge as set forth in Section 11, below, that the Protective Order 

creates no entitlement to file confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets 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. 

2. DEFINITIONS

2.1 Party. Any party to this action, including all of its officers, directors, employees, 

consultants, retained experts, and outside counsel (and their support staff). 

2.2 Disclosure or Discovery Material. All items or information, regardless of the 

medium or manner generated, stored, or maintained (including, among other things, testimony, 

transcripts, or tangible 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 the standards developed 

under FED. R. CIV. P. 26(c). 

2.4 Receiving Party. A Party that receives Disclosure or Discovery Material from a 

Producing Party. 

2.5 Producing Party. A Party or third-party that produces Disclosure or Discovery 

Material in this action.

excerpts, summaries, or compilations thereof, testimony, conversations, or presentations by 

parties or counsel to or in court or in other settings that might reveal Protected Material.

5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL

5.1 General Considerations When Designating Material for Protection. Designation of 

information or items for protection under this Protective Order must be limited to specific 

material that qualifies under the standards set forth herein. A Designating Party must take care to 

designate for protection only those parts of material, documents or items that qualify. If it comes 

to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it designated for protection either 

do not qualify for the level of protection initially asserted, or for any protection at all, the 

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 herein, or as 

otherwise ordered, material that qualifies for protection under this Order must be clearly 

designated before it is disclosed or produced. Designations in conformity with this Order require: 

(a) For information in documentary form (apart from transcripts of 

depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the Producing Party shall affix the legend 

“Confidential” at the bottom 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). A 

Producing 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, and, 

before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the appropriate legend 

at the bottom 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 appropriated markings in the margins).

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

proceedings, that before the close of the deposition, hearing, or other proceeding, the Party or 

non-party offering or sponsoring the testimony shall identify on the record all protected 

testimony and further specify any portions of the testimony that qualify as “Confidential.” When 

it is impractical to identify separately each portion of testimony that is entitled to protection, or 

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 thirty (30) days to identify the 

specific portions of the testimony as to which protection is sought. Only those portions of the 

testimony that are appropriately designated for protection under the standards set forth herein 

within the thirty (30) days shall be covered by the provisions of this Protective Order. Upon 

request of a Designating Party, 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” 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.” If only portions of the information or item warrant protection, the Producing 

Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected portions. 

5.3 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. Inadvertent failure to identify documents or 

things as “Confidential” pursuant to this Protective Order shall not constitute a waiver of any 

otherwise valid claim for protection, provided that the provisions of this paragraph are satisfied.

If the Designating Party discovers that information should have been but was not designated 

“Confidential” or if the Designating Party receives notice that would enable the Designating Party 

to learn that it has disclosed such information, the Designating Party must immediately notify all 

other parties. In such event, within thirty (30) days of notifying all other parties, the Designating 

party must also provide copies of the “Confidential” information designated in accordance with 

Case 3:04-cv-02297-SC Document 156 Filed 11/07/2005 Page 5 of 14 Case 3:04-cv-02297-SC Document 157 Filed 11/09/05 Page 5 of 14

this Protective Order. After receipt of such re-designated information, the “Confidential” 

information shall be treated as required by this Protective Order, and the Receiving Party shall 

promptly, but in no event more than fourteen (14) days from the receipt of the re-designated 

information, return to the Designating Party all previously produced copies of the same 

unlegended documents or things. The parties may agree to alternative means. The Receiving 

Party shall receive no liability, under this Protective Order or otherwise, for any disclosure of 

information contained in unlegended documents or things occurring before the Receiving Party 

was placed on notice of the Designating Party’s claims of confidentiality. 

6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS.

6.1 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 

with counsel for the Designating Party. The challenging Party must give the Designating Party an 

opportunity of not less than ten (10) days to review the designated material, to reconsider the 

circumstances, and, if no change in the designations is offered, to explain in writing the basis for 

being able to meet its burden concerning the chosen designations. 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. 

6.2 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 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 and attaches the justification for the 

confidentiality designation that was given by the Designating Party. 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 third-party in connection with this case solely for the limited 

purposes of prosecuting, defending, attempting to settle, or settling this litigation. Such Protected 

Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the conditions described in 

this Order. 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 parties to this action and 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. Counsel of Record shall be responsible for 

advising all of their staff of the existence of, and their confidentiality obligations under, the 

Protective Order, and shall be responsible for any non-compliance with the Protective Order by 

members of their staff that have not signed an agreement to be bound by the Protective Order; 

(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 or have agreed under oath and on the record to be bound by the “Agreement to Be 

Bound by Protective Order” (Exhibit A); 

(c) Experts (as defined herein) of the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is 

reasonably necessary for this litigation and who have signed or have agreed under oath and on 

the record to be bound by the “Agreement to Be Bound by Protective Order” (Exhibit A); 

(d) The Court and its personnel; 

(e) Court reporters, their staffs, and Professional Vendors to whom disclosure 

is reasonably necessary for this litigation;

(f) During their depositions or at trial, witnesses in the action to whom 

disclosure is reasonably necessary. Witnesses will not be permitted to retain copies of 

confidential information unless they have signed or agreed under oath and on the record to be 

bound by the “Agreement to Be Bound by Protective Order” (Exhibit A). Upon request of a 

Designating Party, pages of transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to depositions that 

reveal Protected Material must be separately bound by the court reporter and may not be 

disclosed to anyone except as permitted under this Stipulated Protective Order; and 

(g) The author of the document or the original source of the information and 

recipients or addressees in the normal course of business. 

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” 

the Receiving Party must so notify the Designating Party, in writing (by fax or email if possible) 

immediately and in no event more than seven (7) days after receiving the subpoena or order. 

Such notification must include a copy of the subpoena or court order. The Receiving Party also 

must within ten (10) days 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 and deliver to such party a copy of this Protective Order. 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 Protective Order, the 

Receiving Party must immediately and within not more than seven (7) days (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 Protective 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. PUBLICLY AVAILABLE OR PREVIOUSLY POSSESSED INFORMATION

 The restrictions in the preceding paragraphs regarding disclosure of Protected Material do 

not and shall not apply to information or material that: was, is, or becomes public knowledge in a 

manner other than by violation of this Protective Order; is acquired by the non-designating party 

from a third-party having the right to disclose such information or material; or was lawfully 

possessed by the non-designating party before the date of this Protective Order. The Designating 

Party shall act in good faith to notify the Receiving Party of any change in circumstances that 

renders Confidential Information or Items no longer confidential within a reasonable time period 

after the change becomes known to the Designating Party. 

11. FILING PROTECTED MATERIAL

The parties shall comply with Civil L.R. 79-5 that states that a party authorized by 

statute, rule or Court order to file a document under seal must lodge the document with the Clerk 

in accordance with this rule. No document shall be filed under seal except pursuant to a Court 

order that authorizes the sealing of the particular document or portion thereof and is narrowly 

tailored to seal only that material for which good cause to seal has been established. Any order 

sealing any documents shall direct the sealing of only those documents, pages, or if practicable, 

those portions of documents or pages that contain the information requiring confidentiality. All 

other portions of such documents shall be included in the public file. The parties shall further 

comply with the format requirements and all other requirements set forth in Civil L.R. 79-5. 

Unless otherwise agreed by the parties to permit service by some other means such as by email 

or facsimile, copies of any pleading, brief or other document containing Protected Material that 

is served on opposing counsel shall be delivered in a sealed envelope stamped: 

CONFIDENTIAL PURSUANT TO PROTECTIVE ORDER 

And shall be treated in accordance with the provisions of this Protective Order.

12. FINAL DISPOSITION

Unless otherwise ordered or agreed in writing by the Producing Party, within sixty (60) 

days of a written request, 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 thirty (30) 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. 

13. MISCELLANEOUS

13.1 Modification. The parties may modify this Protective Order by written agreement, 

subject to approval by the Court. The Court may modify this Protective Order. 

13.2 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 Protective Order. Similarly, no Party 

waives any right to object on any ground to use in evidence any of the material covered by this 

Protective Order. 

13.3 Privileges Not Waived. Nothing herein shall be deemed to waive any applicable 

privilege or work product protection, or to affect the ability of a party to seek relief for an 

inadvertent disclosure of material protected by privilege or work product protection.
