RULE 502(d) PROTECTIVE ORDER
Presently before the Court is a Joint Motion by the Parties for entry of a protective order pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d). Having carefully considered the Joint Motion, the Parties request is GRANTED as follows:
The production of privileged or work-product protected documents, electronically stored information ("ESI") or other information, whether inadvertent or otherwise, is not a waiver of the privilege or protection from discovery in this case or in any other federal or state proceeding. This Order shall be interpreted to provide the maximum protection allowed by Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d).
Nothing contained herein is intended to or shall serve to limit a party's right to conduct a review of documents, ESI or information (including metadata) for relevance, responsiveness and/or segregation of privileged and/or protected information before production.
IT IS SO ORDERED. November 2, 2017
