Conn. Practice Book § 7-4B

(a) As used in this section, ‘‘record’’ means any

affidavit, document, or other material.

(b) A party filing a motion requesting that a

record be filed under seal or that its disclosure

be limited shall lodge the record with the court

pursuant to Section 7-4C when the motion is filed,

unless the judicial authority, for good cause

shown, orders that the record need not be lodged.

The motion must be accompanied by an appropriate memorandum of law to justify the sealing

or limited disclosure.

(c) If necessary to prevent disclosure, the

motion, any objection thereto, and any supporting

records must be filed in a public redacted version

and lodged in a nonredacted version conditionally

under seal.

(d) If the judicial authority denies the motion to

seal or to limit disclosure, the clerk shall either (1)

return the lodged record to the submitting party

and shall not place it in the court file or (2) upon

written request of the submitting party retain the

record as a lodged record so that in the event the

submitting party appeals the denial of the motion,

the lodged record can be part of the record on

appeal of the final judgment in the case. In the

latter event or if the judicial authority grants the

motion, the clerk shall follow the procedure set

forth in Section 7-4C (e). If the lodged record is

retained pursuant to (2) above, the clerk shall|

return it to the submitting party or destroy it upon

the expiration of the appeal period if no appeal

has been filed.
