Case No. 2:21-cv-00982-SVW-JPRx ORDER GRANTING STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER CBS BROADCASTING, INC., a New York corporation; and DOES 1 to 50, inclusive, Defendants. 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 [PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER Case No. 2:21-cv-00982-SVW-JPRx Dockets.Justia.com 1 The Court, having considered Plaintiff Darren Policare ("Plaintiff") and Defendant CBS 2 Broadcasting Inc.'s ("CBS") (collectively referred to herein as "the Parties"), [Proposed] Stipulated 3 Protective Order, and good cause appearance therefore, hereby GRANTS the Parties' request. 4 5 In light of the foregoing, this Court issues its Order as follows: 1. A. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS 6 Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential, proprietary, or private 7 information for which protection from public disclosure and from use for any purpose other than 8 prosecuting this litigation may be warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition 9 the Court to enter the following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order 10 does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection 11 it affords from public disclosure and use extends only to the limited information or items that are 12 entitled to confidential treatment under the applicable legal principles. The parties further 13 acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle 14 them to file confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that 15 must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court 16 to file material under seal. 17 B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT 18 This action is likely to involve trade secrets, sensitive and non-public financial information, 19 sensitive employee information affecting individuals’ privacy rights, personnel records, and other 20 valuable research, development, commercial, technical, and/or proprietary information for which 21 special protection from public disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecution of 22 this action is warranted. Such confidential and proprietary materials and information may consist of, 23 among other things, confidential business or financial information regarding confidential business 24 practices, transactions, or other confidential research, development, or commercial information 25 (including information implicating privacy rights of third parties), information otherwise generally 26 unavailable to the public, or which may be privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure under 27 state or federal statutes, court rules, case decisions, or common law. Accordingly, to expedite the 28 [PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER Case No. 2:21-cv-00982-SVW-JPRx 1 flow of information, to facilitate the prompt resolution of disputes over confidentiality of discovery 2 materials, to adequately protect information the parties are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure that 3 the parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses of such material in preparation for and in the 4 conduct of trial, to address their handling at the end of the litigation, and serve the ends of justice, a 5 protective order for such information is justified in this matter. It is the intent of the parties that 6 information will not be designated as confidential for tactical reasons and that nothing be so 7 designated without a good faith belief that it has been maintained in a confidential, non-public 8 manner, and there is good cause why it should not be part of the public record of this case. 9 2.

SCOPE 9 The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only Protected Material (as 10 defined above), but also (1) any information copied or extracted from Protected Material; (2) all 11 copies, excerpts, summaries, or compilations of Protected Material; and 12 conversations, or presentations by Parties or their Counsel that might reveal Protected Material. 13 (3) any testimony, Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by the orders of the trial judge. This 14 Order does not govern the use of Protected Material at trial. 15 4. DURATION 16 Even after final disposition of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations imposed by this 17 Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party agrees otherwise in writing or a court order 18 otherwise directs. Final disposition shall be deemed to be the later of (1) dismissal of all claims and 19 defenses in this Action, with or without prejudice; and (2) final judgment herein after the completion 20 and exhaustion of all appeals, rehearings, remands, trials, or reviews of this Action, including the time 21 limits for filing any motions or applications for extension of time pursuant to applicable law. 22 5. 23 DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL 5.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. Each Party or 24 Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under this Order must take care to 25 limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies under the appropriate standards. The 26 Designating Party must designate for protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral 27 or written communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, items, or 28 5 [PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER Case No. 2:21-cv-00982-SVW-JPRx 1 communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of 2 this Order. 3 Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations that are shown 4 to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily 5 encumber the case development process or to impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other 6 parties) may expose the Designating Party to sanctions. 7 If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it designated for 8 protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must promptly notify all other Parties 9 that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation. 10 5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in this Order, or 11 as otherwise stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection 12 under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or produced. 13 Designation in conformity with this Order requires: 14 (a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic documents, but 15 excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the Producing Party 16 affix at a minimum, the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or “ATTORNEYS EYES ONLY” (hereinafter 17 “CONFIDENTIAL legend”), to each page that contains protected material. 18 A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection need not 19 designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated which documents it would 20 like copied and produced. During the inspection and before the designation, all of the material 21 made available for inspection shall be deemed “CONFIDENTIAL” or “ATTORNEYS EYES 22 ONLY.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants copied and produced, the 23 Producing Party must determine which documents qualify for protection under this Order. Then, 24 before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the legend 25 “CONFIDENTIAL” or “ATTORNEYS EYES ONLY” to each page that contains Protected Material. 26 27 28 6 [PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER Case No. 2:21-cv-00982-SVW-JPRx 1 (b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party identifies the 2 Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the deposition, or within thirty (30) 3 days after receiving a final transcript of the deposition, all protected testimony. 4 (c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for any 5 other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the exterior of the container 6 or containers in which the information is stored the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or “ATTORNEYS 7 EYES ONLY.” 8 5.3 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent failure to 9 designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the Designating Party’s 10 right to secure protection under this Order for such material. Upon timely correction of a designation, 11 the Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance 12 with the provisions of this Order. 13 6. 6.1 14 15 CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s Scheduling Order. 16 6.2 Meet and Confer. The challenge must proceed under Local Rule 37. 17 6.3 The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the Designating 18 Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose (e.g., to harass or impose 19 unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Challenging Party to 20 sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, 21 all parties shall continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to which it is 22 entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the Court rules on the challenge. 23 7. 24 ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is disclosed or 25 produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this Action only for prosecuting, 26 defending or attempting to settle this Action. Such Protected Material may be disclosed only to the 27 categories of persons and under the conditions described in this Order. When the Action has been 28 7 [PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER Case No. 2:21-cv-00982-SVW-JPRx 1 terminated, a Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL 2 DISPOSITION). 3 4 5 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.

PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN OTHER 7 LITIGATION 8 If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation that compels 9 disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as “CONFIDENTIAL” or 10 “ATTORNEYS EYES ONLY” that Party must: 11 12 (a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall include a copy of the subpoena or court order unless prohibited by law; 13 (b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order to issue 14 in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena or order is subject 15 to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and (c) 16 cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued 17 by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected. If the Designating Party timely 18 seeks a protective order, the Party served with the subpoena or court order shall not produce any 19 information designated in this action as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “ATTORNEYS EYES ONLY” before 20 a determination by the relevant court, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s permission. 21 9. 22 23 A NON-PARTY'S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION (a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a Non- 24 Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “ATTORNEYS EYES ONLY.” Such 25 information produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the remedies 26 and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be construed as prohibiting a 27 Non-Party from seeking additional protections. 28 10 [PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER Case No. 2:21-cv-00982-SVW-JPRx 1 (b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to 2 produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is subject to an 3 agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential information, then the Party 4 shall: 5 6 (1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement with a Non-Party; 7 (2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated Protective Order 8 in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably specific description of the 9 information requested; and 10 11 (3) make the information requested available for inspection by the Non-Party, if (c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within 14 days requested. 12 13 of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may produce the Non- 14 Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a 15 protective order, the Receiving Party shall not produce any information in its possession or control 16 that is subject to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court. 17 Absent a court order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking 18 protection in this court of its Protected Material. 19 10. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 20 If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed Protected 21 Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this Stipulated Protective Order, 22 the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in writing the Designating Party of the 23 unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected 24 Material, (c) inform the person or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the 25 terms of this Order, and (d) request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment 26 and Agreement to Be Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A. 27 28 11 [PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER Case No. 2:21-cv-00982-SVW-JPRx 1 11. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE PROTECTED 2 MATERIAL 3 When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain inadvertently produced 4 material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection, the obligations of the Receiving Parties 5 are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to 6 modify whatever procedure may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production 7 without prior privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and (e), insofar as the 8 parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a communication or information covered by 9 the attorney-client privilege or work product protection, the parties may incorporate their agreement 10 in the stipulated protective order submitted to the court provided the Court so allows. The Parties 11 hereby agree that, pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and (e), disclosure of a communication 12 or information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work product protection in connection with 13 this litigation does not waive such privilege or protection. 14 12. 12.1 15 16 MISCELLANEOUS Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any person to seek its modification by the Court in the future. 12.2 17 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this Protective Order, 18 no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to disclosing or producing any information 19 or item on any ground not addressed in this Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives 20 any right to object on any ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective 21 Order. 22 12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any Protected 23 Material must comply with Local Civil Rule 79-5 and the Court’s Standing Order. Protected 24 Material may only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the specific 25 Protected Material at issue. If a Party’s request to file Protected Material under seal is denied by 26 the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the public record unless otherwise 27 instructed by the court. 28 12 [PROPOSED] ORDER GRANTING STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER Case No. 2:21-cv-00982-SVW-JPRx 1 13. FINAL DISPOSITION 2 Within sixty (60) days of the final disposition of this Action, each Receiving Party must return 3 all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As used in this subdivision, 4 “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries, and any other format 5 reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned 6 or destroyed, the Receiving Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if 7 not the same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that (1) identifies (by 8 category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or destroyed and (2) 9 affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries 10 or any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this 11 provision, Counsel are entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, trial, 12 deposition, and hearing transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial exhibits, 13 expert reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert work product, even if such materials 14 contain Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or constitute Protected Material 15 remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION). 16 14. Any violation of this Order may be punished by any and all appropriate measures including, 17 without limitation, contempt proceedings and/or monetary sanctions. 18 IT IS SO STIPULATED, THROUGH COUNSEL OF RECORD. 19 20 DATED: June 7, 2021 21 22 /s/ Christopher P.
