NOTICE REGARDING PERSONAL INFORMATION
On March l, 2005, the United States District Court for the District of
Delaware adopted an electronic filing system which makes documents submitted
for filing available on the internet. The Court, in its Administrative Procedures
Governing Filing and Service by Electronic Means, has recognized that certain
kinds of personal information should not be included on public filings except in
limited fashion. For example: (l) the names of minor children should not be used,
only their initials; (2) only the last four digits of a social security number should
be used; (3) a full date of birth should not be used, only the year of birth need be
given; (4) only the last four digits of any financial account should be included; and
(5) in criminal cases, only the city and state of a personal address need be given.
Caution should also be used when filing documents that contain the following: (1)
personal identifying numbers, such as driver’s license numbers; (2) medical
records; (3) employment history; (4) individual financial information; (5)
proprietary or trade secret information; (6) information regarding cooperation with
the government; (7) victim information; and (8) national security information.
It is not the responsibility of the Court to review each document and
determine whether personal information has properly been protected. Every
document submitted for tiling will be docketed and made publicly accessible
over the Court’s electronic filing system. If, after docketing, you determine that
a document contains personal information that you want to treat as confidential,
you must file a "Motion to Seal" with the Court, giving your reasons for your
privacy concems. lf the Motion to Seal is granted, the Court will remove the
electronic link to the document in question from the public docket and mark the
entry "sealed". The Court may also require you to file another version of the
document that does not contain the private information or that contains only
limited personal information.
