PURPOSES AND LIMITATIONS 2 A. Discovery in this action is likely to involve production of confidential, 3 || proprietary, or private information for which special protection from public 4 || disclosure and from use for any purpose other than prosecuting this litigation may 5 || be warranted. Accordingly, the parties hereby stipulate to and petition the Court to 6 || enter the following Stipulated Protective Order. The parties acknowledge that this 7 || Order does not confer blanket protections on all disclosures or responses to 8 || discovery and that the protection it affords from public disclosure and use extends 9 || only to the limited information or items that are entitled to confidential treatment 10 || under the applicable legal principles. The parties further acknowledge, as set forth in 5 11 || Section XIII(C), below, that this Stipulated Protective Order does not entitle them to
12 || file confidential information under seal; Civil Local Rule 79-5 sets forth the SF 13 || procedures that must be followed and the standards that will be applied when a party Z 14 || seeks permission from the Court to file material under seal. 2 | 15||I GOOD CAUSE STATEMENT 2 16 A. Contentions re Harm from Disclosure of Confidential Materials. - 17 Defendants contend that there is good cause and a particularized need for a 18 || protective order to preserve the interests of confidentiality and privacy in peace 19 || officer personnel file records and associated investigative or confidential records for 20 || the following reasons. 21 First, Defendants contend that peace officers have a federal privilege of 22 || privacy in their personnel file records: a reasonable expectation of privacy therein 23 || that is underscored, specified, and arguably heightened by the Pitchess protective 24 || procedure of California law. See Sanchez v. Santa Ana Police Dept., 936 F.2d 1027, 25 || 1033-1034 (9th Cir_1990); Hallon v. City of Stockton, 2012 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 26 || 14665, *2-3, 12-13 (E.D. Cal. 2012) (concluding that “while “[f]ederal law applies 27 || to privilege based discovery disputes involving federal claims,” the “state privilege 28 || law which is consistent with its federal equivalent significantly assists in applying 2 Case No. 8:22-cv-01351 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1 || [federal] privilege law to discovery disputes”); Soto v. City of Concord, 162 F.R.D. 2 || 603, 613 n. 4, 616 (N.D. Cal. 1995) (peace officers have constitutionally-based 3 || “privacy rights [that] are not inconsequential” in their police personnel records); cf. 4 || Cal. Penal Code §§ 832.7, 832.8; Cal. Evid. Code §§ 1040-1047. Defendants 5 || further contend that uncontrolled disclosure of such personnel file information can 6 || threaten the safety of non-party witnesses, officers, and their families/associates. 7 Second, Defendants contend that municipalities and law enforcement 8 || agencies have federal deliberative-executive process privilege, federal official 9 || information privilege, federal law enforcement privilege, and federal attorney-client 10 || privilege (and/or attorney work product protection) interests in the personnel files of 5 11 || their peace officers — particularly as to those portions of peace officer personnel files
12 || that contain critical self-analysis, internal deliberation/decision-making or SF 13 || evaluation/analysis, or communications for the purposes of obtaining or rendering Z Z 14 || legal advice or analysis — potentially including but not limited to 2 15 evaluative/analytical portions of Internal Affairs type records or reports, 2 16 || evaluative/analytical portions of supervisory records or reports, and/or reports - 17 || prepared at the direction of counsel, or for the purpose of obtaining or rendering 18 || legal advice. See Sanchez, 936 F.2d at 1033-1034; Maricopa Audubon Soc’y v. 19 || United States Forest Serv., 108 F.3d 1089, 1092-1095 (9th Cir_1997); Soto, 162 20 || E.R.D. at 613, 613 n. 4; Kelly v. City of San Jose, 114 F.R.D. 654, 668-671 (N.D. 21 || Cal. 1987); Tuite v. Henry, 181 F.R.D. 175, 176-177 (D. D.C. 1998); Hamstreet v. 22 || Duncan, 2007 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 89702 (D. Or_2007); Admiral Ins. Co. v. United 23 || States Dist. Ct., 881 F.2d 1486, 1492, 1495 (9th Cir. 1988). Defendants further 24 || contend that such personnel file records are restricted from disclosure by the public 25 || entity’s custodian of records pursuant to applicable California law and that 26 || uncontrolled release is likely to result in needless intrusion of officer privacy; 27 || impairment in the collection of third-party witness information and statements and 28 || related legitimate law enforcement investigations/interests; and a chilling of open 3 Case No. 8:22-ev-01351 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1 || and honest discussion regarding and/or investigation into alleged misconduct that 2 ||can erode a public entity’s ability to identify and/or implement any remedial 3 || measures that may be required. 4 Third, Defendants contend that, since peace officers do not have the same 5 ||rights as other private citizens to avoid giving compelled statements, it is contrary to 6 || the fundamental principles of fairness to permit uncontrolled release of officers’ 7 || compelled statements. See generally Lybarger v. City of Los Angeles, 40 Cal.3d 8 || 822, 828-830 (1985); cf U.S. Const., amend V. 9 Accordingly, Defendants contend that, without a protective order preventing 10 || such, production of confidential records in the case can and will likely substantially =| 11 )/impair and harm defendant public entity’s interests in candid self-critical analysis, i 12 || frank internal deliberations, obtaining candid information from witnesses, SF 13 || preserving the safety of witnesses, preserving the safety of peace officers and peace Z 14 || officers’ families and associates, protecting the privacy officers of peace officers, 2 | 15]/and preventing pending investigations from being detrimentally undermined by 2 16 || publication of private, sensitive, or confidential information — as can and often does - 17 || result in litigation. 18 Accordingly, the parties agree that there is Good Cause for a Protective Order 19 ||so as to preserve the respective interests of the parties without the need to further 20 || burden the Court with such issues. Specifically, the parties jointly contend that, 21 || absent this Stipulated Protective Order, the parties' respective privilege interests may 22 || be impaired or harmed, and that this Stipulated Protective Order may avoid such 23 || harm by permitting the parties to facilitate discovery with reduced risk that 24 || privileged and/or sensitive/confidential information will become matters of public 25 || record. 26 Accordingly, to expedite the flow of information, to facilitate the prompt 27 || resolution of disputes over confidentiality of discovery materials, to adequately 28 || protect information the parties are entitled to keep confidential, to ensure that the 4 Case No. 8:22-ev-01351 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1 || parties are permitted reasonable necessary uses of such material in preparation for 2 || and in the conduct of trial, to address their handling at the end of the litigation, and 3 || serve the ends of justice, a protective order for such information is justified in this 4 || matter. It is the intent of the parties that information will not be designated as 5 || confidential for tactical reasons and that nothing be so designated without a good 6 || faith belief that it has been maintained in a confidential, non-public manner, and 7 || there is good cause why it should not be part of the public record of this case. 8 TII.

Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for Protection. 2 15 Each Party or Non-Party that designates information or items for protection 2 16 || under this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific material that - 17 || qualifies under the appropriate standards. The Designating Party must designate for 18 || protection only those parts of material, documents, items, or oral or written 19 || communications that qualify so that other portions of the material, documents, items, 20 || or communications for which protection is not warranted are not swept unjustifiably 21 || within the ambit of this Order. 22 Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited. Designations 23 ||that are shown to be clearly unjustified or that have been made for an improper 24 || purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber the case development process or to impose 25 || unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties) may expose the Designating Party 26 || to sanctions. 27 If it comes to a Designating Party’s attention that information or items that it 28 || designated for protection do not qualify for protection, that Designating Party must 7 Case No. 8:22-ev-01351 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1 || promptly notify all other Parties that it is withdrawing the inapplicable designation. 2 B. Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise provided in 3 || this Order, or as otherwise stipulated or ordered, Disclosure or Discovery Material 4 || that qualifies for protection under this Order must be clearly so designated before the 5 || material is disclosed or produced. 6 Designation in conformity with this Order requires: 7 (a) For information in documentary form (e.g., paper or electronic 8 documents, but excluding transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial ? proceedings), that the Producing Party affix at a minimum, the legend 10 “CONFIDENTIAL” (hereinafter “CONFIDENTIAL legend’), to each page that 5 i contains protected material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page 2 12 qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected Bes 13 portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins). S| 4 (b) A Party or Non-Party that makes original documents available for 2a IS inspection need not designate them for protection until after the inspecting Party has 5 : indicated which documents it would like copied and produced. During the inspection and before the designation, all of the material made available for inspection shall be I8 deemed “CONFIDENTIAL.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents 19 it wants copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents, 20 or portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order. Then, before producing the specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the “CONFIDENTIAL 22 legend” to each page that contains Protected Material. If only a portion or portions of 23 the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing Party also must clearly 24 identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate markings in the 25 margins). 26 27 28 8 Case No. 8:22-ev-01351 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER
Case §{22-cv-01351-JVS-ADS Document 46 Filed 12/08/22 Page9of18 Page ID #:543
1 (c) for testimony given in depositions that the Designating Party identifies 2 || the Disclosure or Discovery Material on the record, before the close of the deposition 3 || all protected testimony. 4 (d) for information produced in some form other than documentary and for 5 || any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a prominent place on the 6 || exterior of the container or containers in which the information is stored the legend 7||“CONFIDENTIAL.” If only a portion or portions of the information warrants 8 || protection, the Producing Party, to the extent practicable, shall identify the protected 9 || portion(s). 10 C. Inadvertent Failures to Designate. If timely corrected, an inadvertent 5 11 || failure to designate qualified information or items does not, standing alone, waive the
12 || Designating Party’s right to secure protection under this Order for such material. SF 13 || Upon timely correction of a designation, the Receiving Party must make reasonable Z 14 || efforts to assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this 2 | 15|| Order. A 2 16||} Vl. CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS - 17 A. Timing of Challenges. Any Party or Non-Party may challenge a 18 || designation of confidentiality at any time that is consistent with the Court’s 19 || Scheduling Order. 20 B. Meet and Confer. The Challenging Party shall initiate the dispute 21 ||resolution process under Local Rule 37.1 et seq. 22 C. — The burden of persuasion in any such challenge proceeding shall be on 23 ||the Designating Party. Frivolous challenges, and those made for an improper 24 ||purpose (e.g., to harass or impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other 25 parties) may expose the Challenging Party to sanctions. Unless the Designating 26 || Party has waived or withdrawn the confidentiality designation, all parties shall 27 ||continue to afford the material in question the level of protection to which it is 28 || entitled under the Producing Party’s designation until the Court rules on the 9 Case No. 8:22-ev-01351 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

A NON-PARTY’S PROTECTED MATERIAL SOUGHT TO BE 12 || PRODUCED IN THIS LITIGATION Be! 13 A. The terms of this Order are applicable to information produced by a Non- oy 14||Party in this Action and designated as “CONFIDENTIAL.” Such information 23 15 || produced by Non-Parties in connection with this litigation is protected by the 16 ||remedies and relief provided by this Order. Nothing in these provisions should be - 17 || construed as prohibiting a Non-Party from seeking additional protections. 18 B. — In the event that a Party is required, by a valid discovery request, to 19 || produce a Non-Party’s confidential information in its possession, and the Party is 20||subject to an agreement with the Non-Party not to produce the Non-Party’s 21 || confidential information, then the Party shall: 22 (1) promptly notify in writing the Requesting Party and the Non-Party 23 || that some or all of the information requested is subject to a confidentiality agreement 24 || with a Non-Party; 25 (2) promptly provide the Non-Party with a copy of the Stipulated 26 || Protective Order in this Action, the relevant discovery request(s), and a reasonably 27 || specific description of the information requested; and 28 12 Case No. 8:22-ev-01351 STIPULATED PROTECTIVE ORDER

1 (3) make the information requested available for inspection by the 2 || Non-Party, if requested. 3 C. — Ifthe Non-Party fails to seek a protective order from this court within 14 4 || days of receiving the notice and accompanying information, the Receiving Party may 5 || produce the Non-Party’s confidential information responsive to the discovery request. 6 || If the Non-Party timely seeks a protective order, the Receiving Party shall not produce 7\|any information in its possession or control that is subject to the confidentiality 8 || agreement with the Non-Party before a determination by the court. Absent a court 9 || order to the contrary, the Non-Party shall bear the burden and expense of seeking 10 || protection in this court of its Protected Material. s| □□□ XI.

By stipulating to the entry of this 8 || Protective Order no Party waives any right it otherwise would have to object to 9 || disclosing or producing any information or item on any ground not addressed in this 10 || Stipulated Protective Order. Similarly, no Party waives any right to object on any s| 11 || ground to use in evidence of any of the material covered by this Protective Order. 12 C. Filing Protected Material. A Party that seeks to file under seal any SF 13 || Protected Material must comply with Civil Local Rule 79-5. Protected Material may Z Z 14 || only be filed under seal pursuant to a court order authorizing the sealing of the specific 2 | Protected Material at issue. If a Party's request to file Protected Material under seal is 2 16 || denied by the court, then the Receiving Party may file the information in the public - 17 || record unless otherwise instructed by the court. 18 || XIV.
