The Master Binder shall be kept at the offices of Plaintiffs' counsel and kept in a secure location. The Master Binder shall be designated "Confidential Information — Attorney's Eyes Only" and be afforded treatment specified in the Protective Order governing the disclosure of information in the course of litigating this case, ECF Docket No. 34, dated February 13, 2019.
b. In the second hardcopy set ("Binder 2" or the "Inmate Binder"), there will be one photograph per page. Each photograph shall be labeled by number only.

The Photographs may be shown only to the inmates and former inmates identified in Defendants' Response to Interrogatory No. 7 (the "Inmates").
c. Prior to showing a Photograph to an Inmate, the person presenting the Photographs (the "Administrator") shall ask in sum and substance the following questions:
i. Do you recall any BOP employees, including guards, doctors or other medical professionals, who were present or interacted with Mr. Sanchez while he appeared to be sick or who responded to the emergency when he died/was dying?
ii. For each such incident you recall, was the BOP employee apparently a man, woman or, if you recall more than one employee, were they all men or women, or both men and women?
3. The Photographs are designated "Confidential Information — Attorney's Eyes Only" except to the extent this agreement permits Plaintiff's counsel to show them to inmates. The Photographs are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Protective Order governing discovery in this case. See Dkt. No. 34.
4. Plaintiffs reserve the right to object to these or similar conditions as discovery progresses and/or at trial.
SO ORDERED.
