Order Extending Time to File Notice of Intent to Request Redaction and Statement of Redaction

Pursuant to the policy of the Judicial Conference of the United States regarding Electronic Availability of Transcript of Court Proceedings, the Court will allow an attorney for a person, or a pro se litigant, about whom private information is disclosed in a proceeding to request redaction of personal data identifiers from a transcript before it is made available to the public on CM/ECF. Such personal data identifiers include: Social Security numbers; financial account numbers; full dates of birth; full names of minor children; and full home addresses (in criminal cases). The policy of the Judicial Conference of the United States regarding Electronic Availability of Transcript of Court Proceedings sets a deadline of five (5) business days from the filing date of the transcript to file a Notice of Redaction and twenty-one (21) days to file a Statement of Redaction. The Court having determined that additional time is needed for parties to receive adequate notice and opportunity to exercise this right;

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that any attorney for a party, or pro se litigant, desiring redaction of personal information as set forth above shall file a Notice of Intent to Request Redaction with the Clerk of Court within ten (10) days of the notice of the filing of a transcript. Upon the filing and Notice of Intent to Request Redaction, the party has thirty (30) days to review and mail to the court reporter a Statement of Redaction setting forth the specific pages and specific personal data identifiers to be redacted. Said Statement SHALL NOT be electronically filed.

Dated this 17th day of October, 2007.
