PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS 2 Defendants COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO, and SAN BERNARDINO 3| COUNTY SHERIFF’S DEPARTMENT (“Defendants”) contend that discovery in this 4 action (the “Action’’) is likely to involve production of confidential, proprietary, or private 5||information for which special protection from public disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be warranted. Accordingly, Defendants Plaintiffs ESTATE OF RICHARD OSAKI, E.I.O, N.A.O.1, N.A.O.2, STANLEY 8] OSAKIT, and R.T.O., JR (“Plaintiffs”), with Plaintiffs and Defendants collectively referred herein as the “Parties” or individually as the “Party,” hereby stipulate to and petition 10||the Court to enter the following Stipulated Protective Order (the “Protective Order’). The 11] Parties acknowledge that this Protective Order does not confer blanket protections on all 12|disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection it affords from public 13||disclosure and use extends only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment under the applicable legal principles. 15} }2. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT 16 This Action involves records of detention and investigations performed by the San 17|| Bernardino County Sheriff's Department and its personnel, agents, and employees, and/or other third parties contracted with the County. Defendants assert that the underlying incident, and evidence thereof, may involve the identity of personnel, third-party witnesses, and others, that is private or confidential in nature. Further, Defendants 21|/anticipate that Plaintiffs will seek confidential documents in this matter which may 22\include, but are not limited to, personnel records of law enforcement officers, 23|/employment records, and confidential information from the San Bernardino County 24|Sheriff's Department (including potential information implicating privacy of third parties) not generally available to the public, or which may be privileged or otherwise 26|| protected from disclosure under state or federal statutes, court rules, case decisions, or 27|common law. Should this information (photos, videos, personnel records, private 28||information of witnesses, etc.) be disclosed without the protection of this Protective

_ 1 of 13 _

1||Order, and open access to the information be allowed, the privacy and safety of those involved in this Action, and other law enforcement matters, could be placed at risk. 3 Accordingly, to expedite the flow of information, facilitate the prompt resolution 4|| of disputes over confidentiality of discovery materials, adequately protect information the Parties are entitled to keep confidential, ensure the Parties are permitted reasonable and 6|| necessary uses of such material in preparation for trial and address their handling at the 7| end of the litigation, and serve the ends of justice, a protective order for such information justified in this matter. It is the intent of the Parties that information will not be 9| designated as “confidential” for tactical reasons and that nothing be so designated without good faith belief that it has been maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and 11||there 1s good cause why it should not be part of the public record in this Action. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF UNDER SEAL FILING PROCEDURE 13 The Parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 14.3, below, that this 14|| Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information under 15|seal; Local Civil Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to file material 17|/under seal. There is a strong presumption that the public has a night of access to judicial 18] proceedings and records in civil cases. In connection with non-dispositive motions, good cause must be shown to support a filing under seal. See Kamakana v. City and County o 20|| Honolulu,

, 1176 (9th Cir. 2006), Phillips v. Gen. Motors Corp.,

, 1210-11 (9th Cir. 2002), Makar-Welbon v. Sony Electrics, Inc.,

, 22||577 (E.D. Wis. 1999) (even stipulated protective orders require good cause showing), and specific showing of good cause or compelling reasons with proper evidentiary support 24| and legal justification, must be made with respect to Protected Material that a party seeks file under seal. The Parties’ mere designation of Disclosure or Discovery Material as 26 CONFIDENTIAL does not— without the submission of competent evidence by declaration, establishing that the material sought to be filed under seal qualifies as confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable—constitute good cause. Further, if a _9 of 13 _

1|| party requests sealing related to a dispositive motion or trial, then compelling reasons, not 2||only good cause, for the sealing must be shown, and the relief sought shall be narrowly tailored to serve the specific interest to be protected. See Pintos v. Pacific Creditors ’n.,

(9th Cir. 2010). For each item or type of information, 5|}document, or thing sought to be filed or introduced under seal, the party seeking protection must articulate compelling reasons, supported by specific facts and legal justification, for the requested sealing order. Again, competent evidence supporting the 8 | application to file documents under seal must be provided by declaration. Any document 9| that is not confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable in its entirety will not be filed 10| under seal if the confidential portions can be redacted. If documents can be redacted, then redacted version for public viewing, omitting only the confidential, privileged, or 12] otherwise protectable portions of the document, shall be filed. Any application that seeks file documents under seal in their entirety should include an explanation of why 14] redaction is not feasible. DEFINITIONS 16 4.1 Action.

SCOPE 2 The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only Protected 3|| Material (as defined above), but also (1) any information copied or extracted from 4||Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or compilations of Protected 5| Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or presentations by Parties or their Counsel that might reveal Protected Material. Any use of Protected Material at trial shall 7| be governed by the orders of the trial judge and other applicable authorities. This Order does not govern the use of Protected Material at trial. 91/6. DURATION 10 Once a case proceeds to tnal, information that was designated as CONFIDENTIAL or maintained pursuant to this protective order used or introduced as exhibit at trial becomes public and will be presumptively available to all members of 13||the public, including the press, unless compelling reasons supported by specific factual 14] findings to proceed otherwise are made to the trial judge in advance of the trial. See 15| Kamakana, 447 F.3d at 1180-81 (distinguishing “good cause” showing for sealing 16|;documents produced in discovery from “compelling reasons” standard when merits- 17||related documents are part of court record). Accordingly, the terms of this protective 18] order do not extend beyond the commencement of the trial. 19}|7. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL 20 7.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. Each 21|/Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under this 22|| Protective Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for 24||protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, items, or 26|| communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably within ambit of this Protective Order. 28 Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations that

_ 5 of 13 _

1||are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper purpose (e.g., unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Designating Party to sanctions. 4 If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it 5||\designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must 6| promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation. 7 7.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in this Order, or as otherwise stipulated or ordered, Disclosure of Discovery Material that qualifies for protection under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material disclosed or produced. 11 Designation in conformity with this Order requires: 12 (a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic 13 documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), 14| that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter 15|“CONFIDENTIAL legend’), to each page that contains protected material. If only a 16] portion of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must 17||clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the 18] margins). 19 A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection need designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated which 21||documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before the 22||designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be deemed 23|““CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants 24| copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing the specified 26| documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL legend” to each page 27| that contains Protected Material. If only a portion of the material on a page qualifies for 28] protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., _ 6 of 13 _

1| by making appropriate markings in the margins). 2 (b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party identifies Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the deposition all 4] protected testimony. 5 (c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the 7|\exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the legend 8|““CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information warrants protection, 9| the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected portion(s). 10 7.3. Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent failure designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Protective Order for such 13|material. Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions 15] of this Protective Order. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS 17 8.1 Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a designation 18] of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s orders. 19 8.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute resolution 20|| process under Local Rule 37.1 et seq. 21 8.3 Joint Stipulation. Any challenge submitted to the Court shall be via a joint 22|| stipulation pursuant to Local Rule 37-2. 23 8.4 Burden. The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall on the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper 25|| purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) 26|| may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall continue to afford the 28|| material in question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing _F of 13 _

1| Party’s designation until the Court rules on the challenge. 2119. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 3 9.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is 4|| disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this Action Sjonly for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this Action. Such Protected 6|| Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the conditions described in this Protective Order. When the Action has been terminated, a Receiving 8|| Party must comply with the provisions of Section 13 below (FINAL DISPOSITION). 9 Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a location 10] and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited only to the persons authorized 11] under this Protective Order. Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless otherwise ordered the Court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a Receiving Party may 14| disclose any information or item designated “CONFIDENTIAL” only to: 15 (a) the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this Action, as well as 16|/employees of the Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably necessary to disclose the information for this Action. 18 (b) the officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action; 20 (c) Experts (as defined in this Protective Order) of the Receiving Party to whom 21|\disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the 22||“Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 23 (d) the Court and its personnel; 24 (e) court reporters and their staff; 25 (f) professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and Professional Vendors whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the 27| “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 28 (g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a

_ 2 of 13 _

1||custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information; 2 (h) during their depositions, witnesses, and attorneys for witnesses, in the Action whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided: (1) the deposing party requests that 4||the witness sign the form attached as Exhibit A hereto; and (2) they will not be permitted keep any confidential information unless they sign the “Acknowledgment and 6| Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise agreed by the Designating Party ordered by the court. Pages of transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to 8 || depositions that reveal Protected Material may be separately bound by the court reporter may not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted under this Stipulated Protective 10] Order; and 11 (i) any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting personnel, mutually 12||agreed upon by any of the Parties engaged in settlement discussions. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED IN 14 OTHER LITIGATION 15 If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation that 16|;compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as 17| “CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must: 18 (a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall include a copy of the subpoena or court order; 20 (b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order to 21|/issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of this Protective Order; and 24 (c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued by Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected. 26 If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with the 27||subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this Action as 28] “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the subpoena or _9of13_

1] order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s written permission. 2|The Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in that 3)court of its CONFIDENTIAL Information or Items, and nothing in these provisions 4||should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action to 5|| disobey a lawful directive from another court. A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE PRODUCED 7 IN THIS LITIGATION 8 (a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a Non- Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be construed as prohibiting a 12||Non-Party from seeking additional protections. 13 (b) Inthe event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to produce Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is subject to an 15||agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential information, then the Party shall: 17 (1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the NonParty that 18|}some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement with a 19|| Non-Party; 20 (2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated Protective 21]}Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably specific description of the information requested; and 23 (3) make the information requested available for inspection by the Non- Party, if requested. 25 (c) Ifthe Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within 14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may 27|| produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery request. If Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall not produce any _ 10 0f 13 _

1|information in its possession or control that is subject to the confidentiality agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court. Absent a court order to the 3||contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in this 4| court of its Protected Material. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 6 If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed 7||Protected Material to any person or in any circumstances not authorized under this Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve all 10] unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or persons to whom 11]/unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Protective Order, and (d) 12||request such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be 13 Bound” that is attached hereto as Exhibit A. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE 15 PROTECTED MATERIAL 16 When a Producing Party gives notice to the Receiving Parties that certain inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protections, the 18] obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b)(5)(B). This 19|provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure may be established in an e- 20| discovery order that provides for production without prior privilege review. Pursuant to 21|| Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and (ce), insofar as the Parties reach an agreement on the 22|effect of disclosure of a communication or information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work product protection, the Parties may may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order submitted to the court. 2514. MISCELLANEOUS 26 14.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Protective Order abridges the right 27| of any person to seek its modification by the Court in the future. 28 14.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this _11o0f 13 _

1|| Protective Order, no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to disclosing producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this Protective 3 Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any ground to the use in evidence 4] of any of the material covered by this Protective Order. 5 15.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any Protected 6|| Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material may only be filed 7|\under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the specific Protected 8|| Material at issue. If a Party’s request to file Protected Material under seal is denied by Court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the public record unless otherwise instructed by the Court. FINAL DISPOSITION 12 After the final disposition of this Action, as defined in paragraph 6, within 60 days a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must return all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As used in this 15|/subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations, 16||summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material. 17|| Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving Party must submit written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same person or entity, to the 19| Designating Party) by the 60-day deadline that (1) identifies (by category, where 20| appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or destroyed and (2) affirms that 21||the Receiving Party has not retained any copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding 23||this provision, Counsel are entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion 24||papers, trial, deposition, and hearing transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, 25| deposition and trial exhibits, expert reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert work product, even if such materials contain Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or constitute Protected Material remain subject to this Protective Order set forth in Section 6 (DURATION). _ 19 0f 13 _
