The Connecticut Superior Court Practice Book Rules have been amended as of Jan. 1, 2010 to add a new Section 4-7, generally requiring that sensitive personal identifying information be excluded or redacted from documents filed with the Superior Court, unless the information is required by law or court order to be included in full in such documents.
Practice Book Section 4-2 also has been revised so that lawyers who sign pleadings, motions, and other court papers are automatically certifying that their signed documents comply with new Section 4-7. Under Section 4-7, the responsibility for excluding or redacting protected sensitive personal identifying information from court documents “rests solely with the person filing the document.”
