In The
Court of Appeals
Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana
No. 06-15-00117-CR
JOSEPH LEO STREHL, III, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 4th District Court
Rusk County, Texas
Trial Court No. CR15-075
Before Morriss, C.J., Moseley and Burgess, JJ.
ORDER
Our review of the court reporter’s record in this case indicates that volume five contains
“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 includes “a driver’s license number, passport number,
social security number, tax identification number or similar government-issued personal
identification number.” TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10 (a)(1). Volume five of the reporter’s record includes
social security numbers. 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(f) 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(f). Therefore, because the court
reporter’s record contains sensitive data, we order the clerk of this Court or her appointee, in
accordance with Rule 9.10(f), to seal volume five of the electronically filed reporter’s record in
this case.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
