Can documents containing confidential information be filed and viewed?

The Clerk has no authority to refuse to accept any document presented for filing with the court, even if that document contains confidential information. It is the responsibility of the filer to minimize the filing of confidential or sensitive information in accordance with Florida Rule of General Practice and Judicial Administration 2.425 and to notify the Clerk of any confidential information contained within a document being filed, as required by Florida Rule of General Practice and Judicial Administration 2.420.

Confidential information contained within a court file may only be viewed by those persons with the authority to do so as prescribed by the Florida Rules of General Practice and Judicial Administration, and if the viewing is via the internet, in accordance with Administrative Orders of the Florida Supreme Court.
