PEOPLE v. SANCHEZ (VINCENT HENRY)
Record correction granted
It has come to the court's attention that the electronic version of the reporter's transcript in the record on appeal publicly filed in this court, and copied and distributed under rules 8.619(f) and 8.622(e) of the California Rules of Court, may include the personal identifying information of some of the trial jurors, in violation of the Code of Civil Procedure, section 237, subdivision (a), and rules 8.332 and 8.610 of the California Rules of Court. (See also Code Civ. Proc., §§ 194, subd. (o) [defining "trial jurors"], 237, subd. (f) [prohibiting disclosure of unlawfully secured personal juror identifying information].)
Within 30 days from the date of this order, counsel for both parties, the Governor, the Habeas Corpus Resource Center, and the California Appellate Project must return to the Clerk of the superior court any computer discs containing the reporter's transcript on appeal, and destroy all copies of the reporter's transcript that may be stored electronically.
The Clerk of the superior court must, within 60 days from the date of this order: (1) prepare a new electronic version of the reporter's transcript on appeal; (2) ensure all personal identifying information for all trial jurors has been removed from the electronic version of the reporter's transcript and replaced with appropriate identifying numbers, as required by Code of Civil Procedure sections 194, subdivision (o), and 237, subdivision (a), as well as rules 8.332 and 8.610 of the California Rules of Court; and (3) send copies of the new redacted electronic version of the reporter's transcript on appeal to this court, counsel for the parties, and others as required in rules 8.619(f) and 8.622(e) of the California Rules of Court.
This court, on its own motion, directs the Clerk of this court to place under seal the electronic version of the reporter's transcript on appeal, which was filed publicly on June 28, 2012.
