Case No. CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) Hon. Dean D. Pregerson [DISCOVERY DOCUMENT: Referred to Magistrate Judge Suzanne H. Segal] [PROPOSED]AMENDED STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER 24 25 26 27 28 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) 1 IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED by and between Plaintiff 2 Richard Reinsdorf (“Reinsdorf”) and Defendants Skechers U.S.A., Inc. and 3 Skechers U.S.A., Inc. II (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Skechers”) as 4 follows: 5 1. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT 6 Discovery activity in this action is likely to involve production and disclosure 7 of certain documents and information pertaining to the parties’ financial 8 information, personnel records, product development, marketing or business 9 strategies, or other kinds of competitive, commercially sensitive or proprietary 10 information, which require special protection from public disclosure and from use 11 for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation. For example, Reinsdorf has 12 requested that Skechers produce documents related to its marketing plans and data, 13 agreements with third parties, prior settlement agreements with third parties, and 14 various financial documents. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and 15 petition the Court to enter the following Amended Stipulated Protective Order. The 16 parties acknowledge that this Amended Stipulated Protective Order does not confer 17 blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and that the 18 protection it affords extends only to the limited information or items that are 19 entitled under the applicable legal principles to treatment as confidential. The 20 parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 10, below, that this Amended 21 Stipulated Protective Order creates no entitlement to file confidential information 22 under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed 23 and reflects the standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from 24 the Court to file material under seal. 25 2. DEFINITIONS 26 2.1. Party: any party to this action, including all of its officers, directors, 27 employees, house counsel, corporate parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, 28 consultants, retained experts, and outside counsel (and their support staff). 1 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) 1 2.2. Disclosure or Discovery Material: all items or information, regardless 2 of the medium or manner generated, stored, or maintained (including, among 3 other things, testimony, transcripts, or tangible things) that are produced or 4 generated in disclosures or responses to discovery in this matter. 5 2.3. “Confidential” Information or Items: information (regardless of how 6 generated, stored or maintained) or tangible things related to: non-public 7 financial or business plans and strategies, projections or analyses; non-public 8 personnel records; non-public employee, independent contractor, and third 9 party compensation and related issues; contracts and other documents 10 concerning compensation and employment; strategic transactions or other 11 business combinations; acquisition offers or expressions of interest; non- 12 public studies or analyses by internal or outside experts; non-public 13 competitive analyses; product development; and non-public business and 14 marketing plans, data and strategies. 15 2.4. “Highly Confidential – Attorneys’ Eyes Only” Information or Items: 16 information (regardless of how generated, stored or maintained, including 17 testimony or documents) or tangible things related to (i) Skechers’ General 18 Ledger; and (ii) Skechers’ annual Media Budget Summaries. 19 2.5. Material from a Producing Party. 20 21 2.6. Producing Party: a Party or non-party that produces Disclosure or Discovery Material in this action. 22 23 Receiving Party: a Party that receives Disclosure or Discovery 2.7. Designating Party: a Party or non-party that designates information or 24 items that it produces in disclosures or in responses to discovery as 25 “Confidential.” 26 27 2.8. Protected Material: any Disclosure or Discovery Material that is designated as “Confidential.” 28 2 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) 1 2 Outside Counsel: attorneys who are not employees of a Party but who 2.9. are retained to represent or advise a Party in this action. 3 2.10. House Counsel: attorneys who are employees of a Party. 4 2.11. Counsel (without qualifier): Outside Counsel and House Counsel (as 5 6 well as their support staffs). 2.12. Expert: a person with specialized knowledge or experience in a matter 7 pertinent to the litigation who has been or may be retained by a Party or its 8 counsel to serve as an expert witness or as a consultant in this action and 9 who is not a current employee of a Party or a direct competitor of a Party 10 and who, at the time of retention, is not anticipated to become an employee 11 of a Party or a direct competitor of a Party. This definition includes a 12 professional jury or trial consultant retained in connection with this 13 litigation. 14 2.13. Professional Vendors: persons or entities that provide litigation 15 support services (e.g., photocopying; videotaping; translating; preparing 16 exhibits or demonstrations; organizing, storing, retrieving data in any form 17 or medium; etc.) and their employees and subcontractors. 18 19 3. SCOPE The protections conferred by this Amended Stipulated Protective Order cover 20 not only Protected Material (as defined above), but also any information copied or 21 extracted therefrom, as well as all copies, excerpts, summaries, or compilations 22 thereof, plus testimony, conversations, or presentations by parties or counsel to or 23 in court or in other settings that might reveal Protected Material. 24 4. DURATION 25 Following the conclusion or termination of this litigation, the confidentiality 26 obligations imposed by this Amended Stipulated Protective Order shall remain in 27 effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in writing or a court order 28 otherwise directs. 3 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) 1 2 5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL 5.1. Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. 3 Each Party or non-party that designates information or items for protection 4 under this Amended Stipulated Protective Order shall limit any such 5 designation to specific material that qualifies under the appropriate 6 standards. A Designating Party shall designate for protection only those 7 parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written communications that 8 qualify — so that other portions of the material, documents, items, or 9 communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept 10 unjustifiably within the ambit of this Amended Stipulated Protective Order. 11 If a Party or a non-party concludes that information or items that it or 12 that has been designated for protection does not qualify for protection at all, 13 or does not qualify for the level of protection initially asserted, that Party or 14 non-party must promptly notify all other parties in writing that it is 15 withdrawing the incorrect designation or that it is challenging the 16 designation. 17 5.2. Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in 18 this Amended Stipulated Protective Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of 19 section 5.2(a) and section 5.3, below), or as otherwise stipulated or ordered, 20 material that qualifies for protection under this Amended Stipulated 21 Protective Order must be clearly so designated before the material is 22 disclosed or produced. 23 Designation in conformity with this Amended Stipulated Protective 24 Order requires: 25 (a) for information in documentary form (apart from transcripts of 26 depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the Producing Party affix the 27 legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ 28 EYES ONLY” on each page that contains protected material. 4 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) 1 (b) for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or trial 2 proceedings, that the Party or non-party offering or sponsoring the testimony 3 identifies on the record, before the close of the deposition, hearing, or other 4 proceeding, all protected testimony, and further specify any portions of the 5 testimony that qualify as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – 6 ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.” When it is impractical to identify separately each 7 portion of testimony that is entitled to protection, and when it appears that 8 substantial portions of the testimony may qualify for protection, the Party or non- 9 party that sponsors, offers, or gives the testimony may invoke on the record (before 10 the deposition or proceeding is concluded) a right to have up to 20 days from the 11 date of receipt of the transcript to identify the specific portions of the testimony as 12 to which protection is sought and to specify the level of protection being asserted 13 (“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES 14 ONLY”). When this right has been invoked, the transcript shall be treated as 15 “CONFIDENTIAL” during the sooner of: (a) 20 days from the date of receipt of 16 the transcript; or (b) the date that the specific portions of testimony for which 17 protection is sought have been designated as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY 18 CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” and such designations have 19 been served. The foregoing applies only if the above-mentioned 20-day period is 20 invoked. Only those portions of the testimony that are appropriately designated for 21 protection within the 20 days shall be covered by the provisions of this Amended 22 Stipulated Protective Order. 23 (c) for information produced in some form other than documentary, 24 and for any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place 25 on the exterior of the container or containers in which the information or item is 26 stored the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – 27 ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.” 28 5 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) 1 2 5.3. Inadvertent Production or Failure to Designate. (a) An inadvertent failure to designate qualified information or 3 items as “Confidential” or “Highly Confidential – Attorneys’ Eyes Only” does not 4 waive the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Amended 5 Stipulated Protective Order for such material. In the event that any document or 6 thing qualifying for designation as “Confidential” or “Highly Confidential – 7 Attorneys’ Eyes Only” is inadvertently produced without the proper designation, 8 the Producing Party shall identify such document or thing promptly in writing after 9 its inadvertent production is discovered and provide a copy of such document or 10 thing with the proper designation to counsel for the Receiving Party, upon receipt 11 of which the Receiving Party shall promptly return or verify in writing that it has 12 destroyed all copies of the document or thing in its previously undesignated or 13 misdesignated form. 14 (b) In the event that any document or thing containing or 15 constituting privileged attorney-client communications or attorney work product is 16 inadvertently produced, the Producing Party shall notify the Receiving Party 17 promptly in writing after it is discovered that the privileged material was 18 inadvertently produced for inspection or provided, and upon receipt of such 19 notification the Receiving Party shall promptly return to counsel for the Producing 20 Party any and all copies of such document or thing and thereafter refrain from any 21 use whatsoever, in this case or otherwise, of such document or thing. The 22 inadvertent production of any document or thing for which a claim of attorney- 23 client privilege or work-product doctrine is subsequently asserted by the Producing 24 Party shall not constitute a subject matter waiver of a valid claim of privilege or 25 work-product doctrine as to any other document or thing in the possession of the 26 Producing Party, or as to any communication or information within the knowledge 27 of the Producing Party. 28 6 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) (c) 1 In the event that a Receiving Party receives a document or thing 2 containing privileged attorney-client communications or attorney work product that 3 the Receiving Party believes has been inadvertently produced, the Receiving Party 4 shall notify the Producing Party promptly in writing after it is discovered that the 5 privileged material may have been inadvertently produced for inspection or 6 provided. If the Producing Party has notified the Receiving Party of inadvertent 7 production hereunder, or has confirmed the inadvertent production called to its 8 attention by the Receiving Party, the Receiving Party shall promptly return to 9 counsel for the Producing Party any and all copies of such document or thing and 10 thereafter refrain from any use whatsoever, in this case or otherwise of such 11 document or thing. The inadvertent production of any document or thing for which 12 a claim of attorney-client privilege or work-product doctrine is subsequently 13 asserted by the Producing Party shall not constitute a subject matter waiver of a 14 valid claim of privilege or work-product doctrine as to any other document or thing 15 in the possession of the Producing Party, or as to any communication or 16 information within the knowledge of the Producing Party. 17 6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS 18 6.1. Timing of Challenges. Any challenge to a Designating Party’s 19 confidentiality designation shall be made as promptly as the circumstances 20 permit. 21 6.2. Meet and Confer. A Party wishing to challenge a Designating Party’s 22 confidentiality designation shall begin the process by conferring directly 23 with counsel for the Designating Party. The provisions of Local Rule 37 24 shall apply to all such challenges. 25 6.3. Judicial Intervention. If the parties are unable to informally resolve a 26 challenge to a particular designation, the challenging Party may file and 27 serve a motion that identifies the challenged material and sets forth in detail 28 the basis for the challenge. The burden to justify the particular designation 7 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) 1 on such a motion shall be on the Designating Party. Each such motion must 2 be accompanied by a competent declaration that affirms that the movant has 3 complied with the meet and confer requirements imposed in the preceding 4 paragraph and that sets forth with specificity the justification for the 5 confidentiality designation that was given by the Designating Party in the 6 meet and confer dialogue. Until the Court rules on the challenge, all parties 7 shall continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to 8 which it is entitled under the Producing Party’s designation. 9 10 7. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 7.1. Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is 11 disclosed or produced by another Party or by a non-party in connection with 12 this case only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this 13 litigation. Such Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories 14 of persons and under the conditions described in this Amended Stipulated 15 Protective Order. The Court will determine the extent to which the 16 Protective Order will control the use of Protected Material at trial. When the 17 litigation has been terminated, a Receiving Party must comply with the 18 provisions of section 12, below (FINAL DISPOSITION). 19 Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a 20 location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons 21 authorized under this Amended Stipulated Protective Order. 22 7.2. Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless 23 otherwise ordered by the Court or permitted in writing by the Designating 24 Party, a Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated 25 CONFIDENTIAL only to: 26 (a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of record in this action, 27 as well as employees of said Outside Counsel to whom it is reasonably necessary to 28 disclose the information for the prosecution or defense of this litigation; 8 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) (b) 1 the Receiving Party’s House Counsel, as well as employees of 2 said House Counsel to whom it is reasonably necessary to disclose the information 3 for the prosecution or defense of this litigation; (c) 4 the officers, directors, or employees of the Receiving Party to 5 whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for the prosecution or defense of this 6 litigation and who have signed the “Agreement to Be Bound by Protective Order” 7 (Exhibit 1); (d) 8 9 experts (as defined in this Amended Stipulated Protective Order) (1) to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for the prosecution or defense of 10 this litigation, and (2) who have signed the “Agreement to Be Bound by Protective 11 Order” (Exhibit 1); 12 (e) the Court and its personnel; 13 (f) court reporters, their staffs, and professional vendors to whom 14 disclosure is reasonably necessary for the prosecution or defense of this litigation; (g) 15 during their depositions, witnesses in the action to whom 16 disclosure is reasonably necessary and who testify under oath to their agreement to 17 be bound by this Amended Stipulated Protective Order. (h) 18 the author of the document or the original source of the 19 information, and the persons who originally received the document in the ordinary 20 course of business. 21 7.3. Disclosure of “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES 22 ONLY” Information or Items. Unless otherwise ordered by the Court or 23 permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a Receiving Party may 24 disclose any information or item designated “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – 25 ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” only to: 26 (a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of record in this action, 27 as well as employees of said Outside Counsel to whom it is reasonably necessary to 28 disclose the information for the prosecution or defense of this litigation; 9 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) 1 (b) experts (as defined in this Protective Order) (1) to whom 2 disclosure is reasonably necessary for the prosecution or defense of this litigation, 3 and (2) who have signed the “Agreement to Be Bound by Protective Order” 4 (Exhibit 1), including, but not limited to, David Connelly; 5 (c) the Court and its personnel; 6 (d) court reporters, their staffs, and professional vendors to whom 7 8 9 10 disclosure is reasonably necessary for the prosecution or defense of this litigation; (e) the author of the document or the original source of the information, and those persons reasonably believed to have received the document or be knowledgeable about its contents in the ordinary course of business; 11 (f) any deponent who is an employee of Skechers U.S.A., Inc. or 12 Skechers U.S.A., Inc. II; and 13 (g) any non-party deponent if the deponent signs the “Agreement to 14 Be Bound by Protective Order” (Exhibit 1), subject to the following procedure. If 15 the Designating Party receives notice for a non-party deposition and reasonably 16 believes the deponent should not be permitted to see information and items 17 designated “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” during 18 his or her deposition, the Designating Party’s counsel shall provide written notice 19 of such objection to counsel for the party noticing the deposition ten (10) business 20 days before the deposition is scheduled to commence. If the party noticing the 21 deposition wishes to show said non-party deponent Highly Confidential documents, 22 he shall specifically identify to the Designating Party those Highly Confidential 23 documents it intends to use no less than five (5) business days before the deposition 24 is scheduled to commence. The Designating Party and its counsel shall not 25 identify, describe, or otherwise reveal this information to the non-party witness or 26 his or her counsel, except to the extent necessary for the Designating Party to file a 27 motion for protective order. If the Designating Party files a motion for protective 28 10 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) 1 order in advance of the deposition, the deponent may not be shown the highly 2 confidential material unless the Court denies the motion. 3 8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED 4 5 IN OTHER LITIGATION If a Receiving Party is served by a non-party with a subpoena or an order 6 issued in other litigation that would compel disclosure of any information or items 7 designated in this action as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – 8 ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY,” the Receiving Party must so notify the Designating 9 Party, in writing (by fax, if possible) no more than ten (10) court days after 10 receiving the subpoena or order. Such notification must include a copy of the 11 subpoena or court order. 12 The Receiving Party also must immediately inform in writing the non-party 13 who caused the subpoena or order to issue in the other litigation that some or all the 14 material covered by the subpoena or order is the subject of this Amended Stipulated 15 Protective Order. In addition, the Receiving Party must deliver a copy of this 16 Amended Stipulated Protective Order promptly to the non-party in the other action 17 that caused the subpoena or order to issue. 18 The purpose of imposing these duties is to alert the interested parties to the 19 existence of this Amended Stipulated Protective Order and to afford the 20 Designating Party in this case an opportunity to try to protect its confidentiality 21 interests in the court from which the subpoena or order issued. The Designating 22 Party shall bear the burdens and the expenses of seeking protection in that court of 23 its confidential material – and nothing in these provisions should be construed as 24 authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this action to disobey a lawful 25 directive from another court. 26 9. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 27 28 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 11 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) 1 Amended Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) 2 notify in writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its 3 best efforts to retrieve all copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or 4 persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this 5 Amended Stipulated Protective Order, and (d) request such person or persons to 6 execute the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” attached hereto as 7 Exhibit 1. 8 10. FILING PROTECTED MATERIAL 9 Information designated as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY 10 CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” that is included in any legal 11 paper (i.e., a paper intended to be filed with the Court) served in this action, 12 whether appended as an exhibit or incorporated into a pleading, affidavit, 13 declaration, memorandum of law or other legal document, shall be subject to the 14 terms of this Amended Stipulated Protective Order, and such information may be 15 disclosed by the Receiving Party only to those persons identified in paragraph 7.2 16 above (with respect to information designated as “CONFIDENTIAL”) or paragraph 17 7.3 above (with respect to information designated as HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL - 18 ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY). Any legal paper, document or thing filed with the 19 clerk of the Court that contains any information designated as “CONFIDENTIAL” 20 or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY” shall be filed 21 pursuant to the procedure set forth in Civil Local Rule 79-5. 22 Nothing contained in this Amended Stipulated Protective Order shall 23 preclude any party from using its own Confidential Information in any manner it 24 sees fit, without prior consent of any other party or the Court. Nothing herein shall 25 operate as any admission by any of the parties hereto that any particular materials 26 contains or reflects trade secrets, or other confidential or proprietary information. 27 28 12 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) 1 2 11. PRIVILEGE LOG A Producing Party may withhold production of a document based on the 3 assertion that the otherwise responsive document is privileged (i.e., attorney-client 4 privilege or work product doctrine). The privilege log shall be produced to the 5 Receiving Party within a reasonable time after the production of any documents 6 from which any documents have been withheld as privileged, or as otherwise 7 provided by Court Order. 8 12. FINAL DISPOSITION 9 Unless otherwise ordered or agreed in writing by the Producing Party, within 10 sixty (60) days after the final termination of this action, each Receiving Party must 11 destroy all Protected Material of the Producing Party. As used in this subdivision, 12 “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, electronic files, compilations, 13 summaries or any other form of reproducing or capturing any of the Protected 14 Material of the Producing Party. Upon destruction, the Receiving Party must 15 submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same person or 16 entity, to the Designating Party) by the sixty day deadline that identifies (by 17 category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was destroyed and that 18 affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies, abstracts, 19 compilations, summaries or other forms of reproducing or capturing any of the 20 Protected Material of the Producing Party. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel 21 are entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, transcripts, 22 legal memoranda, correspondence or attorney work product, even if such materials 23 contain Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or constitute 24 Protected Material remain subject to this Amended Stipulated Protective Order as 25 set forth in Section 4 (DURATION), above. 26 13. DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL BY NON-PARTIES 27 Non-parties who provide information in response to a subpoena or discovery 28 request may invoke the protection of this Order by (a) designating that information 13 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) 1 “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES 2 ONLY” in accordance with this Amended Stipulated Protective Order; and (b) 3 signing a copy of this Amended Stipulated Protective Order. Any non-party who 4 invokes the protection of this Amended Stipulated Protective Order shall also be 5 bound by its obligations. 6 14. MISCELLANEOUS 7 14.1. Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Amended Stipulated 8 Protective Order abridges the right of any person to seek its modification by 9 the Court in the future. 10 14.2. Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this 11 Amended Stipulated Protective Order no Party waives any right it otherwise 12 would have to object to disclosing or producing any information or item on 13 any ground not addressed in this Amended Stipulated Protective Order. 14 Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any ground to use in 15 evidence of any of the material covered by this Amended Stipulated 16 Protective Order. 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 14 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CV10-7181-DDP (SSX) 1 14.3. Exclusive Jurisdiction. This Court shall have the exclusive jurisdiction 2 to enforce any disputes arising out of this Amended Stipulated Protective 3 Order. 4 5 Dated: May 9, 2012 WILLIAM J.
