The policy requires limiting Social Security and financial account numbers to the last four digits, using only initials for the names of minor children and limiting dates of birth to the year. If such information is elicited during testimony in court proceedings, it will become available to the public when the official transcript is filed with the Court unless, and until, it is redacted.

If a restricted item is mentioned or introduced in a hearing, parties may ask to have it stricken from the record or partially redacted to conform to the privacy policy or the Court may do so on its own initiative.

The attorney, or the litigant not represented by an attorney, will have fourteen (14) days from the date of the Notice of Requirement to Review Transcript to file a Notice of Intent to Request Redaction with the Court, stating an intention to review the transcript to determine whether to request redaction of sensitive private information before the transcript is made electronically available to the public. A copy of the Notice of Intent to Request Redaction must be served on the transcriber.

A party will have twenty-one (21) days from the date of the Notice of Requirement to Review Transcript to file a Request for Redaction of Transcript with the Court (which will be a private, restricted event) and send a copy to the transcriber, listing the entries by page and line where personal data appears that must be redacted. The deadline for filing the redacted version of the transcript is thirty-one (31) days from the date of the Notice of Requirement to Review Transcript. At the end of the ninety (90) day restriction period, the redacted version will be made available via remote electronic access and at the public terminals in the Clerk’s office for viewing and printing. The unredacted version of the transcript will not be available via remote electronic access or at the Clerk’s office upon the docketing of the redacted transcript; it must be maintained as a private, restricted event.

An attorney who purchases the transcript during the ninety (90) day restricted period will be given remote electronic access to the transcript and any redacted version filed. Ver. 25.01 (December 1, 2025) 87 RULE 9070-1 EXHIBITS (a) Pending Appeal. From the conclusion of a hearing or trial to the expiration of the time within which to file a notice of appeal or, in the event that an appeal is taken, until the transmission of the record to the District Court, the Clerk will retain all documentary exhibits except ones of unusual bulk or weight.

Documents of unusual bulk or weight and all non- documentary exhibits will remain in the custody of the attorney presenting them, who (1) will permit inspection of them by the attorney for another party for the purpose of preparing the record on appeal; (2) will be responsible for their safekeeping; and (3) if requested, will send them to the appellate court. (b) Upon Conclusion of Action. On the conclusion of a contested matter or the closing of an adversary proceeding, the Clerk will send notice to all attorneys advising the attorneys to remove, within thirty (30) days, all trial and hearing exhibits and all sealed materials that the attorneys presented at any time during the pendency of the contested matter or adversary proceeding.
