Local Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 9018-1. FILING DOCUMENTS UNDER SEAL.
No document shall be placed under seal unless authorized by the Court.

Parties seeking to submit documents under seal should also consult Section III(A) of TXEB Appendix 5005 regarding the submission of documents under seal by electronic means. Any party may seek to vacate or modify the order and the Court, after hearing on notice, shall determine such motion in a manner designed to preserve the confidential nature of the information sought to be protected.
