Chief Judge Brian Morris has signed Administrative Order 25-14 restricting electronic access to sealed documents beginning September 24, 2025. Sealed documents will continue to be filed in CM/ECF under existing procedures. A party with the right to access a sealed document can still request a paper copy by contacting the Clerk’s Office. Because sealed documents filed in CM/ECF will no longer be accessible or viewable electronically, service cannot be accomplished through CM/ECF. Parties will have to serve sealed documents by other appropriate means as provided by the Federal Rules of Procedure. The court will serve sealed documents in paper by mail. Questions can be directed to the CM/ECF Help Desk at 866-463-4052.
