Opinion
No. 06-14-00200-CR

On Appeal from the 4th District Court Rusk County, Texas
Trial Court No. CR 14-233
Before Morriss, C.J., Moseley and Burgess, JJ. ORDER
Our review of the court reporter's record in this case indicates that it contains "sensitive data" as that phrase is defined in Rule 9.10 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(a). Sensitive data includes "a birth date, a home address, and the name of any person who was a minor at the time the offense was committed." TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(a)(3). The court reporter's record includes the name of a person who was a minor at the time the offense was committed. Rule 9.10(b) states, "Unless a court orders otherwise, an electronic or paper filing with the court, including the contents of any appendices, must not contain sensitive data." TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(b).
Rule 9.10(f) provides, "A court may also order that a document be filed under seal in paper form or electronic form, without redaction." TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(f). Therefore, because the court reporter's record contains sensitive data, we order the Clerk of this Court or her appointee, in accordance with Rule 9.10(f), to seal the electronically filed reporter's record in this case.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
