DETECTIVE MICHAEL MONTOYA,

20 an individual, DETECTIVE CORBIN RHEAULT, an individual, and DOES 21 DEFENDANTS. 22 1. A. PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS 23 Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential, 24 proprietary or private information for which special protection from public disclosure 25 and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may be warranted. 26 Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to enter the following 27 28 Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this Order does not confer 1 blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to discovery and that the protection 2 it affords from public disclosure and use extends only to the limited information or 3 items that are entitled to confidential treatment under the applicable legal principles. 4 The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in Section 12.3, below, that this 5 Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to file confidential information under 6 seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the procedures that must be followed and the 7 standards that will be applied when a party seeks permission from the court to file 8 material under seal. 9 10

B. GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT

11 This action involves the City of Los Angeles and members of the Los Angeles 12 Police Department. Plaintiff is seeking materials and information that Defendants the 13 City of Los Angeles et al. (“City”) maintains as confidential, such as personnel files of 14 the police officers involved in this incident, Internal Affairs materials and information, 15 video recordings, audio recordings, Force Investigation Division materials and 16 information and other administrative materials and information currently in the 17 possession of the City and which the City believes need special protection from public 18 disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation. Plaintiff 19 is also seeking official information contained in the personnel files of the police officers 20 involved in the subject incident, which the City maintains as strictly confidential and 21 which the City believes need special protection from public disclosure and from use for 22 any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation. 23 The City asserts that the confidentiality of the materials and information sought 24 by Plaintiff is recognized by California and federal law, as evidenced inter alia by 25 California Penal Code section 832.7 and Kerr v. United States Dist. Ct. for N.D. Cal., 26 511 F.2d 192, 198 (9th Cir. 1975), aff'd, 426 U.S. 394 (1976). The City has not publicly 27 released the materials and information referenced above except under protective order 28 or pursuant to a court order, if at all. These materials and information are of the type 1 that has been used to initiate disciplinary action against Los Angeles Police Department 2 (“LAPD”) officers, and has been used as evidence in disciplinary proceedings, where 3 the officers’ conduct was considered to be contrary to LAPD policy. 4 The City contends that absent a protective order delineating the responsibilities 5 of nondisclosure on the part of the parties hereto, there is a specific risk of unnecessary 6 and undue disclosure by one or more of the many attorneys, secretaries, law clerks, 7 paralegals and expert witnesses involved in this case, as well as the corollary risk of 8 embarrassment, harassment and professional and legal harm on the part of the LAPD 9 officers referenced in the materials and information. 10 The City also contends that the unfettered disclosure of the materials and 11 information, absent a protective order, would allow the media to share this information 12 with potential jurors in the area, impacting the rights of the City herein to receive a fair 13 trial. 14 Accordingly, to expedite the flow of information, to facilitate the prompt 15 resolution of disputes over confidentiality of discovery materials, to adequately protect 16 information the parties are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure that the parties are 17 permitted reasonable necessary uses of such material in preparation for and in the 18 conduct of trial, to address their handling at the end of the litigation, and serve the ends 19 of justice, a protective order for such information is justified in this matter. It is the 20 intent of the parties that information will not be designated as confidential for tactical 21 reasons and that nothing be so designated without a good faith belief that it has been 22 maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and there is good cause why it should 23 not be part of the public record of this case. 24 2. DEFINITIONS 25 2.1 Action: this matter currently pending in federal court entitled, Clara 26 Barillas, et al. v. City of Los Angeles, et al. CV18-08740 CJC (ASx) (which includes 27 the consolidated case of Araceli Flores v. City of Los Angeles, et al., CV18-09936 CJC 28 (ASx).) 1 2.2 Challenging Party: a Party or Non-Party that challenges the designation 2 of information or items under this Order. 3 2.3 “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items: information (regardless of 4 how it is generated, stored or maintained) or tangible things that qualify for protection 5 under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c), and as specified above in the Good Cause 6 Statement. This also includes (1) any information copied or extracted from the 7 Confidential information; (2) all copies, excerpts, summaries, abstracts or compilations 8 of Confidential information; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or presentations that 9 might reveal Confidential information. 10 2.4 Counsel: Counsel of record for the parties to this civil litigation and their 11 support staff. 12 2.5 Designating Party: a Party or Non-Party that designates information or 13 items that it produces in disclosures or in responses to discovery as 14 “CONFIDENTIAL.” 15 2.6 Disclosure or Discovery Material: all items or information, regardless 16 of the medium or manner in which it is generated, stored, or maintained (including, 17 among other things, testimony, transcripts, and tangible things), that are produced or 18 generated in disclosures or responses to discovery in this matter 19 2.7 Expert: a person with specialized knowledge or experience in a matter 20 pertinent to the litigation who has been retained by a Party or its counsel to serve as an 21 expert witness or as a consultant in this Action. 22 2.8 Final Disposition: when this Action has been fully and completely 23 terminated by way of settlement, dismissal, trial, appeal and/or remand to state court. 24 2.9 House Counsel: attorneys other than Counsel (as defined in paragraph 25 2.4) and who are employees of a party to this Action. 26 2.10 Non-Party: any natural person, partnership, corporation, association or 27 other legal entity not named as a Party to this action. 28 / / / 1 2.11 Outside Counsel of Record: attorneys who are not employees of a party 2 to this Action but are retained to represent or advise a party to this Action and have 3 appeared in this Action on behalf of that party or are affiliated with a law firm that has 4 appeared on behalf of that party, and includes support staff. 5 2.12 Party: any party to this Action, including all of its officers, directors, 6 boards, departments, divisions, employees, consultants, retained experts, and Outside 7 Counsel of Record (and their support staffs). 8 2.13 Producing Party: a Party or Non-Party that produces Disclosure or 9 Discovery Material in this Action. 10 2.14 Professional Vendors: persons or entities that provide litigation support 11 services (e.g., photocopying, videotaping, translating, preparing exhibits or 12 demonstrations, and organizing, storing, or retrieving data in any form or medium) and 13 their employees and subcontractors. 14 2.15 Protected Material: any Disclosure or Discovery Material that is 15 designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” 16 2.16 Receiving Party: a Party that receives Disclosure or Discovery Material 17 from a Producing Party. 18 19 3. SCOPE 20 The protections conferred by this Stipulation and Order cover not only Protected 21 Material (as defined above), but also (1) any information copied or extracted from 22 Protected Material; (2) all copies, excerpts, abstracts, summaries, or compilations of 23 Protected Material; and (3) any testimony, conversations, or presentations by Parties or 24 their Counsel that might reveal Protected Material. 25 Any use of Protected Material at trial shall be governed by the orders of the trial 26 judge. This Order does not govern the use of Protected Material at trial. 27 / / / 28 / / / 1 4. DURATION 2 Once a trial commences in this Action, information that was designated as 3 CONFIDENTIAL or maintained pursuant to this protective order and that is introduced 4 or admitted as an exhibit at trial becomes public and will be presumptively available to 5 all members of the public, including the press, unless compelling reasons supported by 6 specific factual findings to proceed otherwise are made to the trial judge in advance of 7 the trial. See Kamakana v. City and County of Honolulu, 447 F.3d 1172, 1180-81 (9th 8 Cir. 2006) (distinguishing “good cause” showing for sealing documents produced in 9 discovery from “compelling reasons” standard when merits-related documents are part 10 of court record). Accordingly, the terms of this protective order do not extend beyond 11 the commencement of the trial as to the CONFIDENTIAL information and materials 12 introduced or admitted as an exhibit at trial. 13 14 5. DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL 15 5.1 Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. 16 Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection under 17 this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that qualifies 18 under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for protection 19 only those parts of material, documents, items or oral or written communications that 20 21 qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, items or communications for 22 which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of this 23 Order. 24 Mass, indiscriminate or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations that 25 are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper purpose 26 (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to impose 27 unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Designating Party 28 to sanctions. 1 If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it 2 designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must 3 promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation. 4 5 5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in 6 this Order (see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2(a) below), or as otherwise 7 stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material that qualifies for protection 8 under this Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or 9 produced. 10 Designation in conformity with this Order requires: 11 (a) for information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic documents, 12 but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the 13 Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or words of a 14 similar effect, and that includes the case name and case number (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 20 need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has indicated 21 which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before 22 the 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 25 portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing the 26 specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL legend” to 27 each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion of the material on a page 28 / / / 1 qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected 2 portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins). 3 (b) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party identifies the 4 Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the deposition all 5 protected testimony. 6 (c) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for any 7 other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the exterior 8 of the container or containers in which the information is stored the legend 9 “CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information warrants 10 protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected 11 portion(s). 12 13 5.3 Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent 14 failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the 15 Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material. Upon 16 timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable efforts to 17 assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this Order. 18 19 6. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS 20 6.1 Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a 21 designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s Scheduling 22 Order. 23 6.2 Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate 7 informal 24 dispute resolution process set forth in the Court’s Procedures and Schedules. see 25 http://www.cacd.uscourts.gov/honorable-alka-sagar 26 6.3 The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on the 27 Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper purpose (e.g., 28 to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the 1 Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating Party has waived or withdrawn 2 the confidentiality designation, all parties shall continue to afford the material in 3 question the level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing Party’s 4 designation until the Court rules on the challenge. 5 6 7. ACCESS TO AND USE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 7 7.1 Basic Principles. A Receiving Party may use Protected Material that is 8 disclosed or produced by another Party or by a Non-Party in connection with this Action 9 only for prosecuting, defending or attempting to settle this Action. Such Protected 10 Material may be disclosed only to the categories of persons and under the conditions 11 described in this Order. When the Action has been terminated, a Receiving Party must 12 comply with the provisions of section 13 below (FINAL DISPOSITION). 13 Protected Material must be stored and maintained by a Receiving Party at a 14 location and in a secure manner that ensures that access is limited to the persons 15 authorized under this Order. 16 17 7.2 Disclosure of “CONFIDENTIAL” Information or Items. Unless 18 otherwise ordered by the court or permitted in writing by the Designating Party, a 19 Receiving Party may disclose any information or item designated “CONFIDENTIAL” 20 only to: 21 (a) the Receiving Party’s Counsel of Record in this Action, as well as employees 22 of said Counsel of Record to whom it is reasonably necessary to disclose the 23 information for this Action; 24 (b) the officers, directors, and employees (including House Counsel) of the 25 Receiving Party to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action; 26 (c) Experts (as defined in this Order) of the Receiving Party to whom disclosure 27 is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the “Acknowledgment and 28 Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 1 (d) the court and its personnel; 2 (e) court reporters and their staff; 3 (f) professional jury or trial consultants, mock jurors, and Professional Vendors 4 to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary for this Action and who have signed the 5 “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A); 6 (g) the author or recipient of a document containing the information or a 7 custodian or other person who otherwise possessed or knew the information; 8 (h) during their depositions, witnesses, and attorneys for witnesses, in theAction 9 to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary provided: (1) the deposing party requests 10 that the witness sign the form attached as Exhibit A hereto; and (2) they will not be 11 permitted to keep any confidential information unless they sign the “Acknowledgment 12 and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A), unless otherwise agreed by the Designating 13 Party or ordered by the court. Pages of transcribed deposition testimony or exhibits to 14 depositions that reveal Protected Material may be separately bound by the court reporter 15 and may not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted under this Stipulated Protective 16 Order; and 17 (i) any mediator or settlement officer, and their supporting personnel, mutually 18 agreed upon by any of the parties engaged in settlement discussions and who have 19 signed the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” (Exhibit A). 20 7.3. Counsel making the disclosure to any qualified person described herein 21 shall retain the original executed copy of the Nondisclosure Agreement until sixty (60) 22 days after this litigation has become final, including any appellate review, and 23 monitoring of an injunction. Counsel for the Receiving Party shall maintain all signed 24 Nondisclosure Agreements and shall produce the original signature page upon 25 reasonable written notice from opposing counsel. If an issue arises regarding a 26 purported unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information, upon noticed motion of 27 contempt filed by the Designating Party, counsel for the Receiving Party may be 28 1 required to file the signed Nondisclosure Agreements, as well as a list of the disclosed 2 materials, in camera with the Court having jurisdiction of the Stipulation. 3 4 8. PROTECTED MATERIAL SUBPOENAED OR ORDERED PRODUCED 5 IN OTHER LITIGATION 6 If a Party is served with a subpoena or a court order issued in other litigation that 7 compels disclosure of any information or items designated in this Action as 8 “CONFIDENTIAL,” that Party must: 9 (a) promptly notify in writing the Designating Party. Such notification shall 10 include a copy of the subpoena or court order; 11 (b) promptly notify in writing the party who caused the subpoena or order to 12 issue in the other litigation that some or all of the material covered by the subpoena or 13 order is subject to this Protective Order. Such notification shall include a copy of this 14 Stipulated Protective Order; and 15 (c) cooperate with respect to all reasonable procedures sought to be pursued by 16 the Designating Party whose Protected Material may be affected. 17 18 If the Designating Party timely seeks a protective order, the Party served with the 19 subpoena or court order shall not produce any information designated in this action as 20 “CONFIDENTIAL” before a determination by the court from which the subpoena or 21 order issued, unless the Party has obtained the Designating Party’s permission. The 22 Designating Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection in that court 23 of its confidential material and nothing in these provisions should be construed as 24 authorizing or encouraging a Receiving Party in this Action to disobey a lawful 25 directive from another court. 26 / / / 27 / / / 28 / / / 1 9. A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE 2 PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION 3 (a) The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a Non- 4 Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information produced 5 by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the remedies and relief 6 provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be construed as prohibiting 7 a Non-Party from seeking additional protections. 8 (b) In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to produce 9 a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is subject to an 10 agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s confidential information, 11 then the Party shall: 12 (1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party that 13 some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement with 14 a Non-Party; 15 (2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated 16 Protective Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably 17 specific description of the information requested; and 18 (3) make the information requested available for inspection by the Non- 19 Party, if requested. 20 (c) If the Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within 14 21 days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may 22 produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery request. 23 If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall not produce 24 any information in its possession or control that is subject to the confidentiality 25 agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court. Absent a court order 26 to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking protection 27 in this court of its Protected Material. 28 / / / 1 10. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED MATERIAL 2 If a Receiving Party learns that, by inadvertence or otherwise, it has disclosed 3 Protected Material to any person or in any circumstance not authorized under this 4 Stipulated Protective Order, the Receiving Party must immediately (a) notify in writing 5 the Designating Party of the unauthorized disclosures, (b) use its best efforts to retrieve 6 all unauthorized copies of the Protected Material, (c) inform the person or persons to 7 whom unauthorized disclosures were made of all the terms of this Order, and (d) request 8 such person or persons to execute the “Acknowledgment and Agreement to Be Bound” 9 that is attached hereto as Exhibit A. 10 11 11. INADVERTENT PRODUCTION OF PRIVILEGED OR OTHERWISE 12 PROTECTED MATERIAL 13 When a Producing Party gives notice to Receiving Parties that certain 14 inadvertently produced material is subject to a claim of privilege or other protection, 15 the obligations of the Receiving Parties are those set forth in Federal Rule of Civil 16 Procedure 26(b)(5)(B). This provision is not intended to modify whatever procedure 17 may be established in an e-discovery order that provides for production without prior 18 privilege review. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d) and (e), insofar as the 19 parties reach an agreement on the effect of disclosure of a communication or 20 information covered by the attorney-client privilege or work product protection, the 21 parties may incorporate their agreement in the stipulated protective order submitted to 22 the court. 23 24 12. MISCELLANEOUS 25 12.1 Right to Further Relief. Nothing in this Order abridges the right of any 26 person to seek its modification by the Court in the future. 27 12.2 Right to Assert Other Objections. By stipulating to the entry of this 28 Protective Order, no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to 1 disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this 2 Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any 3 ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order. 4 12.3 Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any 5 Protected Material must comply with Local Civil Rule 79-5. Protected Material may 6 only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the specific 7 Protected Material at issue. If a Party’s request to file Protected Material under seal is 8 denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the public 9 record unless otherwise instructed by the court. 10 11 13. FINAL DISPOSITION 12 After the FINAL DISPOSITION of this Action, as defined in paragraph 2.8, 13 within 60 days of a written request by the Designating Party, each Receiving Party must 14 return all Protected Material to the Producing Party. As used in this subdivision, “all 15 Protected Material” includes all copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries, and any 16 other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material. The Receiving 17 Party must submit a written certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same 18 person or entity, to the Designating Party) by the 60 day deadline that (1) identifies (by 19 20 category, where appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned and (2) affirms 21 that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries 22 or any other format reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material. 23 Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel are entitled to retain an archival copy of 24 all pleadings, motion papers, trial, deposition, and hearing transcripts, legal 25 memoranda, correspondence, deposition and trial exhibits, expert reports, attorney 26 work product, and consultant and expert work product, even if such materials contain 27 Protected Material. Any such archival copies that contain or constitute Protected 28 Material remain subject to this Protective Order as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION). 1 14. VIOLATION 2 Any violation of this Order may be punished by appropriate measures including, 3 without limitation, contempt proceedings and/or monetary sanctions. 4 5 IT IS SO STIPULATED, THROUGH COUNSEL OF RECORD: 6 DATED: October 15, 2019 LAW OFFICES OF DALE K.
