2366 Failure timely to assert a trade secret privilege in response to a discovery demand is a waiver of the privilege; in spite of such waiver, a trial court may issue a protective order regulating dissemination of trade secret information, but if the request for a protective order relates to public health issues, the court should balance the interests of the public and the parties in reaching a decision as to whether dissemination of the information should be restricted.CitationSTADISH v SUPERIOR COURT (Trade Secret Privilege) 71 CA4 1130 [See: CCP 2031; Coalition v Superior Court 170 CA3 888; In re Candiotti 34 CA4 718; Westinghouse v Newman 39 CA4 1194, T/AT 12/95]
