1. Counsel for any party may designate any document, information contained in a document,

information revealed in an interrogatory response or information revealed during a

deposition as confidential if counsel determines, in good faith, that such designation is

necessary to protect the interests of the client. Information and documents designated by

a party as confidential will be stamped “CONFIDENTIAL.” “Confidential” information

or documents may be referred to collectively as “Confidential Information.”

2. Unless ordered by the Court, or otherwise provided for herein, the Confidential

Information disclosed will be held and used by the person receiving such information

solely for use in connection with the above-captioned action.

3. In the event a party challenges another party’s confidential designation, counsel shall

make a good faith effort to resolve the dispute, and in the absence of a resolution, the

challenging party may thereafter seek resolution by the Court. Nothing in this Stipulated

Protective Order constitutes an admission by any party that Confidential Information

disclosed in this case is relevant or admissible. Each party specifically reserves the right

to object to the use or admissibility of all Confidential Information disclosed, in

accordance with applicable law and Court rules.

4. Confidential Information shall not be disclosed to any person, except:

a. The requesting party and counsel, including in-house counsel;

b. Employees of such counsel assigned to and necessary to assist in the litigation;

c. Consultants or experts assisting in the prosecution or defense of the matter, to the

extent deemed necessary by counsel;

d. Any person from whom testimony is taken or is to be taken in these actions,

except that such a person may only be shown that Confidential Information during

and in preparation for his/her testimony and may not retain the Confidential

Information; and

e. The Court (including any clerk, stenographer, or other person having access to

any Confidential Information by virtue of his or her position with the Court) or

the jury at trial or as exhibits to motions.

The burden of persuasion in any such 

challenge shall be on the designating party.

5. Prior to disclosing or displaying Confidential Information to any person, counsel shall:

a. Inform the person of the confidential nature of the information or documents; and

b. Inform the person that this Court has enjoined the use of the information or

documents by him/her for any purpose other than this litigation and has enjoined

the disclosure of that information or documents to any other person.

6. The Confidential Information may be displayed to and discussed with the persons

identified in Paragraphs 4(c) and (d) only on the condition that prior to any such display

or discussion, each such person shall be asked to sign an agreement to be bound by this

Order in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. In the event such person refuses to sign

an agreement in the form attached as Exhibit A, the party desiring to disclose the

Confidential Information may seek appropriate relief from the Court.

7. The disclosure of a document or information without designating it as “confidential” shall

not constitute a waiver of the right to designate such document or information as

Confidential Information provided that the material is designated pursuant to the

procedures set forth herein no later than that latter of fourteen (14) days after the close of

discovery or fourteen (14) days after the document or information’s production,

whichever is later. If so designated, the document or information shall thenceforth be

treated as Confidential Information subject to all the terms of this Stipulation and Order.

8. All information subject to confidential treatment in accordance with the terms of this

Stipulation and Order that is filed with the Court, and any pleadings, motions or other

papers filed with the Court disclosing any Confidential Information, shall be filed under

seal to the extent permitted by law (including without limitation any applicable rules of

Court) and kept under seal until further order of the Court. To the extent the Court

requires any further act by the parties as a precondition to the filing of documents under

seal (beyond the submission of this Stipulation and Order Regarding Confidential

Information), it shall be the obligation of party seeking to file such documents to satisfy

any such precondition. Where possible, only confidential portions of filings with the

Court shall be filed under seal.

The parties will comply with Local Rule 79-5, including 79-5(e)'s requirement that the 

designating party file a declaration establishing that the designated material is sealable.

condition that those files will remain confidential.

The foregoing is entirely without prejudice to the right of any party to apply to the Court

for any further Stipulated Protective Order relating to confidential information; or to object to the

production of documents or information; or to apply to the Court for an order compelling

production of documents or information; or for modification of this Stipulated Protective Order.

This Stipulated Protective Order may be enforced by either party and any violation may result in

the imposition of sanctions by the Court.

Respectfully submitted this 25th day of January 2016.
