That the Producing Party shall 16 affix the legend “Confidential” on each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion 17 or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must 18 clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins or 19 redacting portions). A Producing Party that makes original documents or materials available for 20 inspection need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated 21 which material it would like copied and produced. 22 designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be deemed “Confidential.” 23 After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants copied and produced, the 24 Producing Party must determine which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection KAEMPFER CROWELL 1980 Festival Plaza Drive Suite 650 Las Vegas, Nevada 89135 2845350_1 6943.226 During the inspection and before the Page 4 of 14 Case 2:20-cv-01841-JCM-BNW Document 87 Filed 06/22/21 Page 5 of 14 1 under this Protective Order, and, before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party 2 must affix the appropriate legend on each page that contains Protected Material.

Only those portions of the 14 testimony that are appropriately designated for protection under the standards set forth herein 15 within the thirty (30) days shall be covered by the provisions of this Protective Order. Upon 16 request of a Designating Party, transcript pages containing Protected Material must be separately 17 bound by the court reporter, who must affix to the top of each such page the legend 18 “Confidential” as instructed by the Party or non-party offering or sponsoring the witness or 19 presenting the testimony. c. 20 For information produced in some form other than documentary, and for 21 any other tangible items. That the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the exterior of 22 the container or containers in which the information or item is stored the legend “Confidential.” 23 If only portions of the information or item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent 24 practicable, shall identify the protected portions.

Inadvertent failure to identify documents or 2 things as “Confidential” pursuant to this Protective Order shall not constitute a waiver of any 3 otherwise valid claim for protection, provided that the provisions of this paragraph are satisfied. 4 If the Designating Party discovers that information should have been but was not designated 5 “Confidential” or if the Designating Party receives notice that would enable the Designating 6 Party to learn that it has disclosed such information, the Designating Party must immediately 7 notify all other parties. In such event, within thirty (30) days of notifying all other Parties, the 8 Designating Party must also provide copies of the “Confidential” information designated in 9 accordance with this Protective Order. After receipt of such re-designated information, the 10 “Confidential” information shall be treated as required by this Protective Order, and the 11 Receiving Party shall promptly, but in no event more than fourteen (14) calendar days from the 12 receipt of the re-designated information, return to the Designating Party all previously produced 13 copies of the same unlegended documents or things. The Designating Party and the Parties may 14 agree to alternative means.

The Designating Party shall bear the burdens and the expenses of seeking 17 protection in that court of its Confidential material – and nothing in these provisions should be 18 construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this action to disobey a lawful 19 directive from another court.
