Del. Ch. Ct. R. 90

Access to Documents Filed with the Court in Civil Miscellaneous Actions

activein force · 2015-01-01 – presentact-effective-date

(a) Matters docketed as Civil Miscellaneous (C.M.)

actions including, but not limited to, guardianships, and

associated miscellaneous petitions are confidential and not

subject to public disclosure or access by the general public.

The confidential treatment of Civil Miscellaneous (C.M.)

actions is not subject to the provisions of Rule 5.1

governing public access to documents filed with the Court

in Civil Actions.

(1) Any person or entity aggrieved by the confidential

treatment provisions of this rule may file a motion with

the Court requesting public access to the matter. A copy

of such motion shall be served upon any known party to

the action. Any party to the action who believes that

continued confidential treatment is required shall file a

response to the motion within eleven days. After

considering the motion and any response thereto, the

Court shall determine whether good cause exists to

allow public access to all or any portion of the record or

the proceedings, notwithstanding the privacy concerns

inherent in these fiduciary matters.

(b) If the Court issues in a Civil Miscellaneous (C.M.)

action an opinion the Court believes may have importance

or precedential value to the Bar or the general public, the

Court may, to the extent warranted, publish the opinion

utilizing pseudonyms or other devices that will remove any

indicia of personal identification of the parties or persons

involved in the action.
