`
`Challenges to Confidentiality

`
`protections of this Order; (b) applying to the Court for an Order permitting the disclosure or use
`
`of information or documents otherwise prohibited by this Order; or (c) applying for a further
`
`Protective Order modifying this Order in any respect. No party shall be obligated to challenge
`
`the propriety of any designation, and failure to do so shall not preclude a subsequent challenge to
`
`the propriety of such designation.
`
`14.2
`
`If a party seeks declassification or removal of particular items from a designation
`
`on the ground that such designation is not necessary to protect the interests of the party that
`
`designated the information, the following procedure shall be utilized:
`

`Case 1:16—cv—l0142—DJC Document 22 Filed 03/01/16 Page 11 of 15

`(a)
`
`The party seeking such declassification or removal shall give counsel of
`
`record for the other party written notice thereof by email, physical mail, or personal
`
`delivery specifying the designated information as to which such removal is sought and
`
`the reasons for the request; and
`
`(b)
`
`If, after conferring, the parties cannot reach agreement concerning the
`
`matter within five (5) business days after the delivery and receipt of the notice, then the
`
`party requesting the declassification or removal of particular items may challenge the
`
`designation by motion.
`
`15.
`
`Inadvertent Failure to Designate or Inadvertent Disclosure
`
`15.1
`
`A producing party or non-party that inadvertently fails to designate an item
`
`pursuant to this Order at the time of production may make a designation pursuant to this Order
`
`by serving notice thereof in writing, accompanied by substitute copies of each item,
`
`appropriately designated. Those individuals who reviewed the documents or information prior to
`
`the notice of mis—designation or failure to designate by the producing party shall return all such
`
`mis-designated produced documents (and all copies, if any) to the disclosing party, or destroy
`
`such documents and certify their destruction to the disclosing party, and shall honor, to the extent
`
`reasonably practicable, the provisions of this Order with respect to the use and disclosure of
`
`confidential information in the mis-designated documents.
`
`15.2
`
`IfConf1dentia1 information designated pursuant to this Order is disclosed to any
`
`person other than in the manner authorized by this Order, the party responsible for this disclosure
`
`must immediately bring all pertinent facts relating to such improper disclosure to the attention of
`
`all interested parties, without intentionally creating prejudice to other rights and remedies of the
`
`disclosing party, and shall make every effort to prevent further improper disclosure.

`
`15.3
`
`Inadvertent production of documents subject to work-product immunity, attorney-
`
`client privilege, common interest/joint defense privilege, or other privilege shall not constitute a
`
`waiver of the immunity or privilege, provided that the disclosing party shall notify the receiving
`
`party of such inadvertent production as soon as practicable after the first time the disclosing
`
`party learns of the inadvertent production. Such inadvertently produced documents (and all
`
`copies, if any) shall be returned to the disclosing party, or destroyed and their destruction
`
`certified to the disclosing party, within three (3) business days after receiving the request or by a
`
`deadline agreed upon by the parties. No use shall be made of such documents by the receiving
`
`party unless the receiving party successfully challenges the claims privilege on grounds other
`
`than the inadvertent disclosure. If the parties are unable to agree as to the application of any
`
`claim of privilege or immunity, either party may petition the Court for resolution. The parties
`
`expressly incorporate the provisions of Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b)(5)(B).

`17.

`Case 1:16—cv—10142—DJC Document 22 Filed 03/01/16 Page 13 of 15
`
`own information. Such disclosure shall not waive the protections of this Order and shall not
`
`entitle other parties or their attorneys to disclose such information in violation of it, unless by
`
`such disclosure of the designating party the information becomes public knowledge. Similarly,
`
`this Order shall not preclude a party from showing its own information to its officers, directors,
`
`employees, attorneys, outside consultants, outside experts, or to any other person, even if this
`
`information has been filed under seal by the opposing party.
`
`18.

`
`designated as CONFIDENTIAL - OUTSIDE COUNSEL ONLY, including all copies, extracts
`
`and summaries thereof, to the party from whom the designated material was obtained, except (a)

`
`Agreement to Negotiate Additional Provisions Regarding Source Code
`
`The parties recognize that the confidentiality and limitations of access to computer source
`
`code is particularly sensitive. At present, the parties have not determined whether disclosure of
`
`computer source code will be necessary in this case. In the event that one or more parties
`
`determines, sufficiently in advance of the Court’s fact discovery cut-off in this case, that
`
`disclosure of computer source code is necessary in this case, the parties agree to work together to
`
`determine a process that is acceptable to both parties and that adequately protects the computer
`
`source code to be produced.
`
`It is so ORDERED, dated this
`
`day of
`
`, 2016.
