The Confidential Documents shall be used solely in connection with the civil case 13 JACKSON v. CITY OF STOCKTON, et al., 2:24-CV-01219-JDP. (E.D. Cal.) and in the 14 preparation and trial of the case.

The Confidential Documents may only be disclosed to the following persons: 20 (a) Counsel for Plaintiff, including partners and associate attorneys in their offices, as 21 counsel for Plaintiff in this case; 22 (b) Counsel for Defendant, including partners and associate attorneys in their offices, 23 as counsel for Defendant in this case; 24 (c) Paralegal, clerical, and secretarial personnel regularly employed by counsel 25 referred to in subparts (a) and (b), including stenographic deposition reporters or 26 videographers retained in connection with this action; 27 (d) Court personnel, including stenographic reporters or videographers engaged in 28 proceedings as are necessarily incidental to the preparation for the trial in the civil action; 1 (e) Any expert, consultant, or investigator retained in connection with this action, 2 however, such persons must be advised of and abide by this protective order; 3 (f) The finder of fact at the time of trial, subject to the court’s rulings on in limine 4 motions and objections of counsel; 5 (g) Witnesses during their depositions in this action.

If the Confidential Documents are filed with any motion or other pleading, a party may 19 seek permission from the Court to file the Confidential Documents under seal according to 20 Local Rule 141. If permission is granted, the Confidential Documents will be filed and 21 served in accordance with Local Rule 141. 22 7. The designation of the Confidential Documents as “Confidential” and the subsequent 23 production thereof is without prejudice to the right of any party to oppose the admissibility 24 of the Confidential Documents or information contained therein. 25 8. Any party or non-party may challenge a designation of confidentiality at any time. A party 26 or non-party does not waive its right to challenge a confidentiality designation by electing 27 not to mount a challenge promptly after the original designation is disclosed. The 28 Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute resolution process by providing written notice of each designation it is challenging and describing the basis for each challenge. The parties 1 shall attempt to resolve each challenge in good faith and must begin the process by 2 conferring directly (in voice-to-voice dialogue; other forms of communication are not 3 sufficient) within seven (7) days of the date of receiving notice of the challenge. In 4 conferring, the Challenging Party must explain the basis for its belief that the 5 confidentiality designation was not proper and must give the Designating Party an 6 opportunity to review the designated material, to reconsider the circumstances, and, if no 7 change in designation is offered, to explain the basis for the chosen designation. A 8 Challenging Party may proceed to the next stage of the challenge process only if it has 9 engaged in this meet and confer process first or establishes that the Designating Party is 10 unwilling to participate in the meet and confer process in a timely manner. If the Parties 11 cannot resolve a challenge without Court intervention, the Designating Party may file and 12 serve a motion for protective order pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(c) and E.D. Cal. L.R. 251 13 within twenty-one (21) days of the initial notice of challenge. Failure by the Designating 14 Party to make such a motion within twenty-one (21) days shall automatically waive the 15 “Confidential” designation for each challenged designation. In addition, the Challenging 16 Party may file a motion challenging a confidentiality designation at any time if there is 17 good cause for doing so. The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall 18 be on the Designating Party. Unless the Designating Party has waived the confidentiality 19 designation by failing to file a motion to retain confidentiality as described above, all 20 parties shall continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to which it 21 is entitled under the Designating Party’s designation until the Court rules on the challenge. 22 9. Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 3, the Confidential Documents and 23 information contained therein may not be delivered, exhibited or otherwise disclosed to 24 any reporter, writer or employee of any trade publication, newspaper, magazine or other 25 media organization, including but not limited to radio and television media, provided that 26 the Challenging Party has not obtained, by challenge or otherwise, the removal of the 27 confidentiality designation from the Confidential Documents. 28 10. Should the Confidential Documents or any information contained therein be disclosed, through inadvertence or otherwise, to any person not authorized to receive it under this 1 Protective Order, the disclosing person(s) shall promptly (a) inform counsel of the 2 recipient(s) and the circumstances of the unauthorized disclosure to the relevant producing 3 person(s) and (b) use best efforts to bind the recipient(s) to the terms of this Protective 4 Order. 5 11. The Confidential Documents shall not lose its confidential status because it was 6 inadvertently or unintentionally disclosed to a person not authorized to receive it under this 7 Protective Order. 8 12. After the conclusion of this litigation, the Confidential Documents will remain confidential, 9 unless the Challenging Party has obtained removal of the confidentiality designations. 10 “Conclusion” of this litigation means a termination of the case following a trial, settlement, 11 or dismissal of the Action with prejudice for any other reason. 12 13. This Stipulated Protective Order shall remain in full force and effect and shall continue to 13 be binding on all parties and affected persons until this litigation terminates, subject to any 14 subsequent modifications of this Stipulated Protective Order for good cause shown by this 15 Court or any Court having jurisdiction over an appeal of this action. Upon termination of 16 this litigation, the parties agree the Stipulated Protective Order shall continue in force as a 17 private agreement between the parties, unless the Challenging Party has obtained removal 18 of the confidentiality designations from certain documents. 19 14. During the pendency of this lawsuit, the Court shall (a) make such amendments, 20 modifications and additions to this Protective Order as it may deem appropriate upon good 21 cause shown; and (b) adjudicate any dispute arising under it. 22 IT IS SO STIPULATED. 23 24 Dated: ________________ LAW OFFICES OF KENNETH CHIKE ODIWE, PC 25 26 By /s/ K.
