Sealing Petitions
(a) Procedures for Sealing and Unsealing.
A "Petition for Warrant," "Summons for Offender under Supervision,"
"Petition for Action on Conditions of Release," and "Amended Petition" must
be sealed and unsealed as stated in this rule.
(1) Issuance of a Warrant.
Petitions authorizing the issuance of a warrant are sealed
automatically upon filing and unsealed automatically upon the
named defendant's arrest, after which the government must notify
the clerk as soon as possible.
(2) Issuance of a Summons.
Unless a judge orders otherwise in a specific case, petitions that
authorize the issuance of a summons, direct that service not be
issued for a named defendant, or authorize the ordering of the
named defendant to appear before the court, are not sealed. Any
petitions ordered sealed may be unsealed only by court order.
(b) Government Attorney and Court Officer Access.
The government and any probation and pretrial services officer for this
district may be given a copy of any sealed petition.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
