Bluebook Citation: Bankr. S.D. Cal. R. 1007-5

required by FRBP 1007(b)(1)(E) to the chapter 7, 12, or 13 trustee assigned to the debtor's case or to the U.S. Trustee in a chapter 11 case, preferably through the EDOC System. A debtor should not file this evidence with the Court. 3.4 Copies Documents filed at the front counter or through mail require an original and (1 conformed copy for your records). If the copy is to be returned by United States mail, a self-addressed, postage-paid envelope large enough to hold the copy must be provided.

3.5 Sealed Documents (a) Generally To be eligible for sealing, a document typically must meet FRBP 9018’s definition. A motion and order to file documents under seal may be filed electronically. No document filed under seal should be submitted until after the order granting the motion has been entered. Subsequent documents, upon approval of the order, may also be filed under seal.

15 • Highly Sensitive Documents (“HSDs”) If a motion to file documents under seal is based upon a designation of the documents as HSDs, the following additional procedures apply. HSDs are defined as: Go to Table of Contents • Classified documents; and • Sealed documents involving: national security, foreign sovereign interests; criminal activity related to cybersecurity, intellectual property, or trade secrets; terrorism; investigation of public officials; the reputational interests of the United States; and sensitive commercial information likely to be of interest to foreign powers. A motion to file an HSD under seal must describe the documents comprising the HSD with sufficient detail to determine whether the HSD designation is justified. All HSDs must be filed with the court in paper format once the order granting the motion to seal has been entered.

The court will then maintain them separately; they will not be filed electronically on the docket. • Filing Paper Documents Documents to be sealed – other than HSDs – may be filed either in paper format or electronically. HSDs to be sealed must be submitted in paper format, never electronically. All documents submitted in paper format for sealing must contain the following caption: “THIS DOCUMENT IS FILED UNDER SEAL PURSUANT TO COURT ORDER” and be placed in a large, sealed envelope. A copy of the order must be attached to the envelope and delivered to the Clerk’s Office.

Review the Sealed Document procedure in the CM/ECF Online Manual for specific instructions for filing sealed documents other than HSDs electronically. 3.6 Facsimile Filings All Documents presented for filing by a fax filing agent must comply with the Administrative Procedures requirements for preparation of Documents in Section 2 above and the sending party is required to maintain a transmission record in the event fax filing later becomes an issue. A transmission record means the document printed by the sending facsimile machine stating the telephone number of the receiving machine, the number of pages sent, the transmission time, and an indication of errors in transmission. LBR RULE 5008 governs facsimile filings.
