W.D. Okla. LCrR49.1.1

Redaction of Official Transcripts Prior to Remote Electronic Availability

activein force · 2026-04-23 – presentact-effective-date

(a) Responsibility for Identifying Personal Data Identifiers to be Redacted

from Transcripts. Once an official transcript is filed with the court clerk, the attorneys

in the case and pro se parties are responsible for identifying the personal data identifiers

that must be redacted from filings pursuant to Fed. R. Crim. P. 49.1. Unless otherwise

ordered by the court, the attorney for a party and each pro se party are responsible for

identifying redactions required in the following portions of the transcript:

(1) opening and closing statements made on that party’s behalf;

(2) statements of the party;

(3) the testimony of any witnesses called by the party; and

(4) sentencing proceedings.

The court may also direct that an attorney or pro se party be responsible for identifying

redactions in other portions of an official transcript.

(b) Redaction Request. To request redaction of personal data identifiers from

an official transcript, the attorney or pro se party must file a redaction request, using the

form in Appendix VII, within 21 days of the filing of the transcript. The request shall

identify the redactions to be made with respect to:

(1) Social Security numbers and taxpayer-identification numbers: use

only the last four digits;

(2) financial account numbers: use only the last four digits;

(3) dates of birth: use only the year;

(4) a minor’s name: redact in the manner that most effectively shields

the identity of the minor in the context of the proceeding; and

(5) home address: use only the city and state.

(c) Request for Additional Redactions. For any redactions to a transcript

other than the personal data identifiers listed above, a separate Motion for Redaction must

be filed within 21 days of the filing of the transcript, unless otherwise ordered by the

court.

(d) Stand-By Counsel. An attorney appointed as “stand-by” counsel for a

party is responsible for identifying and requesting on behalf of that party any redactions

of personal data identifiers in the transcript, as required by this rule.

Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law.
