In The
Court of Appeals
Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana
No. 06-16-00007-CR
LAMONTE WESLEY BROWN, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 292nd District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court No. F-1434606-V
Before Morriss, C.J., Moseley and Burgess, JJ.
ORDER
Our review of the clerk’s and court reporter’s records in this case indicates that they contain
“sensitive data” as that phrase is defined in Rule 9.10 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure.
See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(a). Sensitive data, in the context of a criminal case, includes “a birth date,
a home address, and the name of any person who was a minor at the time the offense was
committed.” TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(a)(3). The aforementioned records include the name of a person
who was a minor at the time the offense was committed. Rule 9.10(b) states, “Unless a court
orders otherwise, an electronic or paper filing with the court, including the contents of any
appendices, must not contain sensitive data.” TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(b).
Rule 9.10(g) provides, “A court may also order that a document be filed under seal in paper
form or electronic form, without redaction.” TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(g). Therefore, because the
clerk’s and reporter’s records contain sensitive data, we order the clerk of this Court or her
appointee, in accordance with Rule 9.10(g), to seal the electronically filed clerk’s and reporter’s
records in this case.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
