Motion For Protective Order-To Restrict Access To Filed Documents {F 9037-1.1.MOTION.RESTRICT.PERS.ID}

F 9037-1.1.MOTION.RESTRICT.PERS.ID, MOTION FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER PURSUANT TO 11 U.S.C. § 107(c) AND FRBP 9037 TO RESTRICT ACCESS TO FILED DOCUMENTS CONTAINING PERSONAL DATA IDENTIFIERS, FRBP 9037 provides that "Personal identifiers" must never be included in documents which are then filed on the public record, because personal identifiers should never be available for public viewing of a document filed with the court. Examples of unauthorized personal identifiers are social security numbers, full account numbers, names of minors, full birthdates, and other personal information that is confidential. It is the responsibility of the party who files a document to make sure no personal identifiers are included. The court is NOT responsible for reviewing filed documents to see if personal identifiers have been included. LBR 9037-1(a) is the rule that applies when documents HAVE ALREADY BEEN FILED, yet subsequently a party discovers that personal identifiers were inappropriately included in the filed document. Once a document is filed, there is no method to simply block out a phrase, sentence, or page from public view. Instead, the entire filed document must be blocked from public view. The authorized procedure is: 1. The party files a motion to restrict personal identifiers from public view -- a Motion for Protective Order to Restrict Public Access to Documents that Contain Personal Identifiers. NOTE: The "event code" to use when filing this motion is the "redact (for protective order to restrict personal identifiers LBR Form 9037-1.1)" event code. 2. A fee is required. 3. A hearing is not required. The party must file a Notice of Motion for Order Without Hearing under LBR 9013-1(p). 4. The party lodges an order. The court has a form order. 5. The court enters the Order Restricting Personal Identifiers 6. The court blocks the document from public view 7. The party files a replacement document in which the personal identifiers have either been removed or marked in a way to prevent viewing the personal identifiers. www.FormsWorkflow.com
