`
`In connection with its claims, Plaintiff L. A. PRINTEX INDUSTRIES, INC.
`
`("Plaintiff") has sought from Defendants Kandy Kiss of California, Inc., Target
`
`Corporation and Target. Brands, Inc. (hereafter jointly referred to as the
`
`"Defendants") the discovery of documents and information that Defendants
`
`contend may be particularly sensitive, confidential and proprietary information
`
`relating to vendor prices, goods sold, internal operating expenses associated with
`
`particular goods, operating margins, gross and net profits and the like. Defendants
`
`contend the documents and information requested constitute proprietary, trade
`
`secret, and other protected confidential information subject to protection under the
`Uniform Trade Secrets Act ("UTSA"), which (1) derives independent economic
`
`value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or to other
`persons who can obtain economic value fromits disclosure or use, and (2) is the
`
`subject of efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its
`
`secrecy." [California Civil Code § 3426.1, subd. (d); Reeves v. Hanlon, 33 Cal.
`
`, 4th 1140, 1155 (2004)].
`
`Defendants contend the disclosure of such non—pub1ic information would
`
`give their business competitors a competitive advantage to which they are not
`
`lawfully entitled. These Defendants contend they have good cause to protect the
`
`confidentiality of their sales and operating information from the public. As this
`
`type of confidential sales and operating information is not ordinarily available to
`
`other retailers, manufacturers, distributors and vendors, this information, to the

`
`extent relevant to this case, Defendants contend this information requires special
`
`protection from disclosure pursuant to F.R.C.P. 26(0).
`
`Some of the,Defendants are garment retailers that sold the allegedly
`
`infringing garments to the general public. The retail Defendants contend that
`
`public disclosure of their pricing and profit information would give their business
`
`competitors and unfair advantage and therefore require special protection from
`
`. disclosure pursuant to F.R.C.P. 26(0).
`
`Similarly, some of the Defendants are garment manufacturers that supplied
`
`the allegedly infringing items to the various co-defendants. Defendants contend
`
`these garment manufacturers are also engaged in a highly competitive industry and
`
`they want to keep confidential from the public, as well as the defendant retailers,
`
`information relating to its prices, operating margins, and the like. The garment
`
`manufacturers also want to prevent its customers, including the retailer defendants,
`
`from knowing the prices at which it provides goods to its other customers. Again,
`
`Defendants contend this type of confidential salesand operating information is not
`
`ordinarily available to other garment manufacturers, distributors and vendors, and
`this information requires special protection from disclosure pursuant to. F.R.C.P.
`
`26(0).
`

`
`DURATION A
`
`Even after the termination of this litigation, the confidentiality
`
`obligations imposed by this Order shall remain in effect until a Designating Party
`
`agrees otherwise in writing or a court order otherwise directs.
`
`5.
`
`DESIGNATING PROTECTED MATERIAL
`
`5.1
`
`Exercise of Restraint and Care in Designating Material for
`
`Protection. Each Party or non—party that designates information or items for
`
`protection under this Order must take care to limit any such designation to specific
`
`material that qualifies under the appropriate standards. A Designating Party must
`
`take care to designate for 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 communications for which protection is not
`
`warranted are not swept unjustifiably within the ambit of this Order.
`
`Mass, indiscriminate, or routinized designations are prohibited.
`
`Designations that are shown to be clearly unjustified, or that have been made for an
`
`improper purpose (e.g., to unnecessarily encumber or retard the case development
`
`process, or to impose unnecessary expenses and burdens on other parties), expose
`
`the Designating Party to sanctions.
`
`If it comes to a Pa1ty’s or a non-party’ s attention that information or
`
`items that it designated for protection do not qualify for protection at all, or do not

`
`qualify for the level of protection initially asserted, that Party or non—party must
`
`promptly notify all other parties that it is withdrawing the mistaken designation.
`
`5.2 Manner and Timing of Designations. Except as otherwise
`provided in this Order(see, e.g., second paragraph of section 5.2ta), below), or as
`
`otherwise stipulated or ordered, material that qualifies for protection under this
`
`Order must be clearly so designated before the material is disclosed or produced.
`
`Designation in conformity with this Order requires:
`
`(a)
`
`for information in documentary form (apart from
`
`transcripts of depositions or other pretrial or trial proceedings), that the Producing
`
`Party affix the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL —
`
`ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONL ” at the top of each page that contains protected
`
`material. If only a portion or portions of the material on a page qualifies for
`
`protection, the Producing Party also must clearly identify the protected po11;ion(s)
`
`(e.g., by making appropriate markings in the margins) and must specify, for each
`
`portion, the level of protection being asserted (either “CONFIDENTIAL” or
`
`“H1GI-ILY CONFIDENTIAL — ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”).
`
`A Party ornon-party that makes original documents or materials
`
`available for inspection need not designate them for protection until after the
`
`inspecting Party has indicated which material it would like copied and produced.
`
`During the inspection and before the designation, all of the material made available
`
`for inspection shall be deemed “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL — ATTORNEYS’

`
`EYES ONLY.” After the inspecting Party has identified the documents it wants
`
`copied and produced, the Producing Party must determine which documents, or
`
`portions thereof, qualify for protection under this Order, then, before producing the
`
`specified documents, the Producing Party must affix the appropriate legend
`
`(“CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL — ATTORNEYS’ EYES
`
`ONLY”) at the top of each page that contains Protected Material. If only aportion
`
`or portions of the material on a page qualifies for protection, the Producing‘Party
`
`also must clearly identify the protected portion(s) (e.g., by making appropriate
`
`markings in the margins) and must specify, for each portion, the level of protection
`
`being asserted (either “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL —
`
`ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”).
`
`(b)
`
`for testimony given in deposition or in other pretrial or
`
`trial proceedings. that the Party or non-party offering or sponsoring the testimony
`
`identify on the record, before the close of the deposition, hearing, or other
`
`proceeding, all protected testimony, and further specify any portions of the
`testimony that qualify as “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL — ATTORNEYS’ EYES
`
`ONLY.” When it is impractical to identify separately each portion of testimony
`
`that is entitled to protection, and when it appears that substantial portions of the
`
`testimony may qualify for protection, the Party" or non-party that sponsors, offers,
`
`or gives the testimony may invoke on the record (before the deposition or
`
`proceeding is concluded) a right to have up to 20 days to identify the specific

`
`portions of the testimony as _to' which protection is sought and to specify the level
`
`of protection being asserted (“CONFIDENTIAL” or “I-HGHLY CONFIDENTIAL
`
`—— ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY”). Only those portions of the testimony that are
`
`appropriately designated for protection within the 20 days shall be covered by the
`
`provisions of this Stipulated Protective Order.
`
`Transcript pages containing Protected Material must be
`
`separately bound by the court reporter, who must affix to the top of each such page
`
`the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL — ATTORNEYS’
`
`EYES ONLY,” as instructed by the Party or nonparty offering or sponsoring the
`
`witness for presenting the testimony.
`
`(c)
`
`for information produced in some form other than
`
`documentary, and for any other tangible items, that the Producing Party affix in a
`prominent place on the exterior of the container or containers in which the
`
`information or item is stored the legend “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY
`
`CONFIDENTIAL — ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY.” If only portions of the
`
`information or item warrant protection, the Producing Party, to the extent
`
`practicable, shall identify the protected portions, specifying whether they qualify as
`
`“Confidential” or as “Highly Confidential —- Attorneys’ Eyes Only.”
`
`5.3
`
`Inadvertent Failures to Designate, If timely corrected, an

`
`Designating Party’s right tosecure protection under this Order for such material. If
`
`material is appropriately designated as “Confidential” or “Highly Confidential —
`
`Attorneys’ Eyes Only” after the material was initially produced, the Receiving
`
`Party, on timely notification of the designation, must make reasonable efforts to
`
`assure that the material is treated in accordance with the provisions of this Order.
`
`6.
`
`CHALLENGING CONFIDENTIALITY DESIGNATIONS
`
`6.1
`
`Timing of Challenges. Unless a prompt challenge to a
`
`Designating Party’s confidentiality designation is necessary to avoid foreseeable
`
`substantial unfairness, unnecessary economic burdens,or a later significant
`
`disruption or delay of the litigation, a Party does not waive its right to challenge a
`
`confidentiality designation by electing not to mount a challenge promptly after the
`
`original designation is disclosed.
`
`6.2
`
`Compliance With Local Rules. A Party that elects to initiate a
`
`challenge to a Designating Party’s confidentiality designation must comply with all
`
`pre-filing and filing requirements of Local Rule 37.
`
`6.3
`
`Standards Governing Motion. The burden of persuasion in any
`
`such challenge proceeding shall be on the Designating Party. Until the court rules
`
`on the challenge, all parties shall continue to afford the material in question the
`
`level of protection to which it is entitled under the Producing Party’s designation.

`
`If a Receiving Party is served with a subpoena or an order issued in
`
`other litigation that would compel disclosure of any information or items
`
`designated in this action as “CONFIDENTIAL” or “HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL —

`
`Party, in writing (by fax, if possible) immediately and in no event more than three
`
`court days after receiving the subpoena or order. Such notification must include a
`
`copy of the subpoena or court order.
`
`The Receiving Party also must immediately inform in writing the
`
`Party who caused the subpoena or order to issue in the other litigation that some or
`
`all the material covered by the subpoena or order is the subject of this Protective
`
`Order. In addition, the Receiving Party must deliver a copy of this Stipulated
`
`Protective Order promptly to the Party in the other action that caused the subpoena
`
`or order to issue.
`
`The purpose of imposing these duties is to alert the interested parties
`
`to the existenceof this Protective Order and to afford the Designating Party in this
`
`case an opportunity to try to protect its confidentiality interests in the court from
`
`_ which the subpoena or order issued. The Designating Party shall bear the burdens
`
`and the expenses of seeking protection in that court of its confidential material —

`
`FINAL DISPOSITION
`
`Unless otherwise ordered or agreed in Writing by the Producing Party, within
`
`sixty days after the final termination of this action, each Receiving Party must
`
`return all Protected Material to the Producing Party. As used in this subdivision,
`
`“all Protected Material” includes all Copies, abstracts, compilations, summaries or
`
`any other form of reproducing or capturing any of the Protected Material. With
`
`permission in writing from the Designating Party, the Receiving Party may destroy
`
`some or all of the Protected Material instead of returning it. Whether the Protected
`
`Material is returned or destroyed, the Receiving Party must submit a written
`
`certification to the Producing Party (and, if not the same person or entity, to the
`
`Designating Party) by the sixty day deadline that identifies (by category, where
`
`appropriate) all the Protected Material that was returned or destroyed and that
`
`affirms that the Receiving Party has not retained any copies, abstracts,
`
`compilations, summaries or other forms of reproducing or capturing any of the
`
`Protected Material. Notwithstanding this provision, Counsel are entitled to retain
`
`an archival copy of all pleadings, motion papers, transcripts, legal memoranda,
`
`correspondence or attorney 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 as set forth in Section 4 (DURATION),
`
`above.
