(1) A party electronically filing a document that is not accessible to the public in whole or in part is responsible for redaction or designating the document as confidential or sealed before transmitting it to the court. For any redacted document a sealed version of the original unredacted document should also be filed electronically.

(2) In documents prepared for filing with the court, information that would otherwise be included in the document but required by § 15-15A-9 not to be disclosed in court documents must be separately filed on a Confidential Information Form and may be included in those documents only by reference.

(3) It is the responsibility of the parties to seek advance approval from the court for submitting a document as sealed or confidential if that document is not already declared confidential or sealed by existing law, court rules or order. The title of a sealed or confidential document will appear on any electronic register of actions for the case.
