The court cautions parties in criminal cases not to include in briefs or other filings information regarding a defendant’s or other witness’s cooperation with the government, if that information has not previously been disclosed on the public record and if disclosure might create a risk to the defendant’s or other witness’s safety. If a party deems it necessary to include such information, the party should move to seal or redact the filings under 6 Cir. R. 25 and Sixth Circuit Guide to Electronic Filing §§ 7 and 12.
