26 1 This Stipulated Protective Order is substantially based on the model protective order provided under Magistrate Judge Stephanie S. Christensen’s Procedures as of 27 24 July 2023. All deviations or amendments to the model protective order have been red-lined in accordance with Magistrate Christensen's order. 1 1. INTRODUCTION 2 1.1 Purposes and Limitations. Discovery in this action is likely to involve 3 production of confidential, proprietary, or private information for which special 4 protection from public disclosure and from use for any purpose other than 5 prosecuting this litigation may be warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby 6 stipulate to and petition the court to enter the following Stipulated Protective Order. 7 The parties acknowledge that this Order does not confer blanket protections on all 8 disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection it affords from public 9 disclosure and use extends only to the limited information or items that are entitled 10 to confidential treatment under the applicable legal principles. 11 1.2 Good Cause Statement 12 This action involves the County of Los Angeles and members of the Los 13 Angeles Sherrif's Department. This action is likely to involve the exchange of 14 protected health information (“PHI”), Police Officer Personnel information, and 15 Open Investigations Consisting of Official Information for which special protection 16 from public disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecution of this 17 action is warranted. Such confidential materials and information consist of, among 18 other things, medical records containing PHI, Police Officer Personnel information 19 and Open Investigations Consisting of Official Information, other administrative 20 materials and information, as well as video recordings, audio recordings, and 21 photographs involving incidents to which law enforcement responded. 22 Accordingly, to expedite the flow of information, to facilitate the prompt 23 resolution of disputes over confidentiality of discovery materials, to adequately 24 protect information the parties are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure that the 25 parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses of such material in preparation for 26 and in the conduct of trial, to address their handling at the end of the litigation, and 27 serve the ends of justice, a protective order for such information is justified in this 1 confidential for tactical reasons and that nothing be so designated without a good 2 faith belief that it has been maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and 3 there is good cause why it should not be part of the public record of this case. 4 1.3 Acknowledgment of Procedure for Filing Under Seal. The parties 5 further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this Stipulated 6 Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information under seal; 7 Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and the standards 8 that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to file material 9 under seal. 10 There is a strong presumption that the public has a right of access to judicial 11 proceedings and records in civil cases. In connection with non-dispositive motions, 12 good cause must be shown to support a filing under seal. See Kamakana v. City and 13 Cnty. of Honolulu,
447 F.3d 1172, 1176 (9th Cir. 2006), Phillips ex rel. Ests. of 14 Byrd v. Gen. Motors Corp.,
307 F.3d 1206, 1210–11 (9th Cir. 2002), Makar-Welbon 15 v. Sony Elecs., Inc.,
187 F.R.D. 576, 577(E.D. Wis. 1999) (even stipulated 16 protective orders require good cause showing), and a specific showing of good 17 cause or compelling reasons with proper evidentiary support and legal justification, 18 must be made with respect to Protected Material that a party seeks to file under seal. 19 The parties’ mere designation of Disclosure or Discovery Material as 20 CONFIDENTIAL does not—without the submission of competent evidence by 21 declaration, establishing that the material sought to be filed under seal qualifies as 22 confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable—constitute good cause. 23 Further, if a party requests sealing related to a dispositive motion or trial, then 24 compelling reasons, not only good cause, for the sealing must be shown, and the 25 relief sought shall be narrowly tailored to serve the specific interest to be protected. 26 See Pintos v. Pac. Creditors Ass’n,
605 F.3d 665, 677–79 (9th Cir. 2010). For each 27 item or type of information, document, or thing sought to be filed or introduced 1 protection must articulate compelling reasons, supported by specific facts and legal 2 justification, for the requested sealing order. Again, competent evidence supporting 3 the application to file documents under seal must be provided by declaration. 4 Any document that is not confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable in its 5 entirety will not be filed under seal if the confidential portions can be redacted. If 6 documents can be redacted, then a redacted version for public viewing, omitting 7 only the confidential, privileged, or otherwise protectable portions of the document, 8 shall be filed. Any application that seeks to file documents under seal in their 9 entirety should include an explanation of why redaction is not feasible. 10 2. DEFINITIONS 11 2.1 Action: this pending federal lawsuit, encaptioned Ronny Jay Clark, Jr. 12 v. County of Los Angeles, et. al. 2:25-cv-00931-HDV(SSCx). 13 2.2 Challenging Party: a Party or Non-Party that challenges the 14 designation of information or items under this Order. 15 2.3 “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items: Information (regardless of 16 how it is generated, stored or maintained) or tangible things that qualify for 17 protection under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c), and as specified above in 18 the Good Cause Statement. 19 2.4 Counsel: Outside Counsel of Record and House Counsel (as well as 20 their support staff). 21 2.5 Designating Party: a Party or Non-Party that designates information or 22 items that it produces in disclosures or in responses to discovery as 23 “CONFIDENTIAL.” 24 2.6 Disclosure or Discovery Material: all items or information, regardless 25 of the medium or manner in which it is generated, stored, or maintained (including, 26 among other things, testimony, transcripts, and tangible things), that are produced or 27 generated in disclosures or responses to discovery in this matter. 1 2.7 Expert: a person with specialized knowledge or experience in a matter 2 pertinent to the litigation who has been retained by a Party or its counsel to serve as 3 an expert witness or as a consultant in this Action. 4 2.8 Final Disposition: the later of (1) dismissal of all claims and defenses 5 in this Action, with or without prejudice; and (2) final judgment herein after the 6 completion and exhaustion of all appeals, rehearings, remands, trials, or reviews of 7 this Action, including the time limits for filing any motions or applications for 8 extension of time pursuant to applicable law. 9 2.9 In-House Counsel: attorneys who are employees of a party to this 10 Action. In-House Counsel does not include Outside Counsel of Record or any other 11 outside counsel. 12 2.10 Non-Party: any natural person, partnership, corporation, association, or 13 other legal entity not named as a Party to this action. 14 2.11 Outside Counsel of Record: attorneys who are not employees of a party 15 to this Action but are retained to represent or advise a party to this Action and have 16 appeared in this Action on behalf of that party or are affiliated with a law firm which 17 has appeared on behalf of that party, and includes support staff. 18 2.12 Party: any party to this Action, including all of its officers, directors, 19 employees, consultants, retained experts, and Outside Counsel of Record (and their 20 support staffs). 21 2.13 Producing Party: a Party or Non-Party that produces Disclosure or 22 Discovery Material in this Action. 23 2.14 Professional Vendors: persons or entities that provide litigation- 24 support services (e.g., photocopying, videotaping, translating, preparing exhibits or 25 demonstrations, and organizing, storing, or retrieving data in any form or medium) 26 and their employees and subcontractors. 27 2.15 Protected Material: any Disclosure or Discovery Material that is 1 2.16 Receiving Party: a Party that receives Disclosure or Discovery Material 2 from a Producing Party. 3 3. SCOPE 4 The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only 5 Protected Material (as defined above), but also (1) any information copied or 6 extracted from Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, or 7 compilations of Protected Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or 8 presentations by Parties or their Counsel that might reveal Protected Material. 9 Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by the orders of the 10 trial judge. This Stipulated Protective Order does not govern the use of Protected 11 Material at trial. 12 4. TRIAL AND DURATION 13 The terms of this Stipulated Protective Order apply through Final Disposition 14 of the Action. 15 Once a case proceeds to trial, information that was designated as 16 CONFIDENTIAL or maintained pursuant to this Stipulated Protective Order and 17 used or introduced as an exhibit at trial becomes public and will be presumptively 18 available to all members of the public, including the press, unless compelling 19 reasons supported by specific factual findings to proceed otherwise are made to the 20 trial judge in advance of the trial. See Kamakana, 447 F.3d at 1180–81 21 (distinguishing “good cause” showing for sealing documents produced in discovery 22 from “compelling reasons” standard when merits-related documents are part of court 23 record). Accordingly, for such materials, the terms of this Stipulated Protective 24 Order do not extend beyond the commencement of the trial. 25 Even after Final Disposition of this litigation, the confidentiality obligations 26 imposed by this Stipulated Protective Order shall remain in effect until a 27 Designating Party agrees otherwise in writing or a court order otherwise directs. 1 5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL 2 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 under 4 this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that 5 qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for 6 protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written 7 communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, 8 items, or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept 9 unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order. 10 Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations 11 that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper 12 purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to 13 impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the 14 Designating Party to sanctions. 15 If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it 16 designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must 17 promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation. 18 5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in 19 this Stipulated Protective Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) 20 below), or as otherwise stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that 21 qualifies for protection under this Stipulated Protective Order must be clearly so 22 designated before the material is disclosed or produced. 23 Designation in conformity with this Stipulated Protective Order requires: 24 (a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic 25 documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial 26 proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend 27 “CONFIDENTIAL” to each page that contains protected material. If only a 1 portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing 2 Party also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making 3 appropriate markings in the margins). 4 A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for inspection 5 need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated 6 which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and 7 before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be 8 deemed CONFIDENTIAL. After the inspecting Party has identified the documents 9 it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which 10 documents, or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Stipulated 11 Protective Order. Then, before producing the specified documents, the Producing 12 Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL” legend to each page that contains 13 Protected Material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies 14 for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected 15 portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins). 16 (b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party identify 17 the Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the 18 deposition all protected testimony. 19 (c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and 20 for any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on 21 the exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the 22 “CONFIDENTIAL” legend. If only a portion or portions of the information 23 warrants protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the 24 protected portion(s). 25 5.3 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent 26 failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive 27 the Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material. 1 efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this 2 Stipulated Protective Order. 3 6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS 4 2.1 Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a 5 designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the court’s 6 Scheduling Order. 7 2.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute 8 resolution process under Local Rule 37.1 et seq. and with Section 2 of Judge 9 Christensen’s Civil Procedures titled “Brief Pre-Discovery Motion Conference.”2 10 2.3 The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on 11 the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper 12 purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other 13 parties) may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating 14 Party has waived or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall 15 continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to which it is 16 entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the court rules on the 17 challenge. 18 7. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 19 7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that 20 is disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this 21 Action only for prosecuting, defending, or attempting to settle this Action. Such 22 Protected Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the 23 conditions described in this Order. When the Action reaches a Final Disposition, a 24 Receiving Party must comply with the provisions of section 13 below. 25 26
27 2 Judge Christensen’s Procedures are available at https://www.cacd.uscourts.gov/honorable- stephanie-s-christensen. 1 Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a 2 location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons 3 authorized under this Stipulated Protective Order. 4 7.2 Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless 5 otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a 6 Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated 7 “CONFIDENTIAL” only: 8 (a) to the Receiving Party’s Outside Counsel of Record in this Action, as 9 well as employees of said Outside Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably 10 necessary to disclose the information for this Action; 11 (b) to the officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of 12 the Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action; 13 (c) to Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom 14 disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the 15 “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 16 (d) to the court and its personnel; 17 (e) to court reporters and their staff; 18 (f) to professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and Professional 19 Vendors to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have 20 signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 21 (g) to the author or recipient of a document containing the information or 22 a custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information; 23 (h) during their depositions, to witnesses, and attorneys for witnesses, in 24 the Action to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary, provided: (1) the deposing 25 party requests that the witness sign the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be 26 Bound” (Exhibit A); and (2) the witness will not be permitted to keep any 27 confidential information unless they sign the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to 1 ordered by the court. Pages of transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to 2 depositions that reveal Protected Material may be separately bound by the court 3 reporter and may not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted under this 4 Stipulated Protective Order; and 5 (i) to any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting personnel, 6 mutually agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement discussions. 7 8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED 8 PRODUCED IN OTHER LITIGATION 9 If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation 10 that compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as 11 “CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must: 12 (a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification 13 shall include a copy of the subpoena or court order; 14 (b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order 15 to issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the 16 subpoena or order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include 17 a copy of this Stipulated Protective Order; and 18 (c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be 19 pursued by the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected. 20 If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served 21 with the subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in 22 this action as “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which 23 the subpoena or order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s 24 permission. The Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking 25 protection in that court of its confidential material and nothing in these provisions 26 should be construed as authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action 27 to disobey a lawful directive from another court. 1 9. A NON-PARTY'S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE 2 PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION 3 9.1 Application. The terms of this Stipulated Protective Order are 4 applicable to information produced by a Non-Party in this Action and designated as 5 “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information produced by Non-Parties in connection with 6 this litigation is protected by the remedies and relief provided by this Order. 7 Nothing in these provisions should be construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from 8 seeking additional protections. 9 9.2 Notification. In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery 10 request, to produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the 11 Party is subject to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non- 12 Party’s confidential information, then the Party shall: 13 (a) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party 14 that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality 15 agreement with a Non-Party; 16 (b) make the information requested available for inspection by the Non- 17 Party, if requested. 18 9.3 Conditions of Production. If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective 19 order from this court within 14 days of receiving the notice and accompanying 20 information, the Receiving Party may produce the Non-Party’s confidential 21 information responsive to the discovery request. If the Non-Party timely seeks a 22 protective order, the Receiving Party shall not produce any information in its 23 possession or control that is subject to the confidentiality agreement with the Non- 24 Party before a determination by the court. Absent a court order to the contrary, the 25 Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in this court of its 26 Protected Material. 27 /// 1 10. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 2 If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has 3 disclosed Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized 4 under this Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) 5 notify in writing the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its 6 best efforts to retrieve all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform 7 the person or persons to whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms 8 of this Order, and (d) request such person or persons to execute the 9 “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A). 10 11. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE 11 PROTECTED MATERIAL 12 When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain 13 inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other 14 protection, the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Rule 15 26(b)(5)(B) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. This provision is not intended 16 to modify whatever procedure may be established in an e-discovery order that 17 provides for production without prior privilege review. Pursuant to Rules 502(d) 18 and (e) of the Federal Rules of Evidence, insofar as the parties reach an agreement 19 on the effect of disclosure of a communication or information covered by the 20 attorney-client privilege or work product protection, the parties may incorporate 21 their agreement in the stipulated protective order submitted to the court. 22 12. MISCELLANEOUS 23 12.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Stipulated Protective Order 24 abridges the right of any person to seek its modification by the court in the future. 25 12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this 26 Stipulated Protective Order no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to 27 object to disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not 1 addressed in this Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right 2 to object on any ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this 3 Stipulated Protective Order. 4 12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any 5 Protected Material must comply with Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material may 6 only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the 7 specific Protected Material at issue. If a Party's request to file Protected Material 8 under seal is denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the 9 information in the public record unless otherwise instructed by the court. 10 13. FINAL DISPOSITION 11 After the Final Disposition of this Action, as defined in paragraph 4, within 12 60 days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must 13 return all Protected Material to the Producing Party or destroy such material. As 14 used in this subdivision, “all Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, 15 compilations, summaries, and any other format reproducing or capturing any of the 16 Protected Material. Whether the Protected Material is returned or destroyed, the 17 Receiving Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if 18 not the same person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that 19 (1) identifies (by category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was 20 returned or destroyed and (2) affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any 21 copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or any other format reproducing or 22 capturing any of the Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel is 23 entitled to retain an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, trial, deposition, 24 and hearing transcripts, legal memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial 25 exhibits, expert reports, attorney work product, and consultant and expert work 26 product, even if such materials contain Protected Material. Any such archival 27 copies that contain or constitute Protected Material remain subject to this Protective 1 || Order as set forth in Section 4. 2\114. VIOLATION 3 Any violation of this Stipulated Protective Order may be punished by any and all appropriate measures including, without limitation, contempt proceedings >|! and/or monetary sanctions. 6 IIT IS SO STIPULATED, THROUGH COUNSEL FO RECORD: 8 9 | DATED: July 28, 2025 HURRELL CANTRALL LLP 10 11 12 By: /S/ Niloo Savis 43 THOMAS C.
