Modified Filing Procedures for Highly Sensitive Documents

     The Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts provided notice on 1/6/21 of a national breach of the ECF system and called upon courts to implement new security procedures to protect highly sensitive documents (HSDs). We do not know if the breach impacted DNJ specifically. Do not upload HSD to ECF. Review Standing Order 21-01 for the Court's procedures and the types of documents that meet the definition of HSDs. Most HSDs are filed under seal as preliminary documents in criminal cases. For other information, visit https://www.uscourts.gov/about-federal-courts/federal-courts-public/court-website-links/highly-sensitive-document-procedures.
