Article 3 - CIVIL PROVISIONS OF GENERAL APPLICATION
Section 40-6A-312 - Nondisclosure of information in exceptional circumstances.

If a party alleges in an affidavit or a pleading under oath that the health, safety or liberty of a party or child would be jeopardized by disclosure or specific identifying information, that information shall be sealed and may not be disclosed to the other party or the public. After a hearing in which a tribunal takes into consideration the health, safety or liberty of the party or child, the tribunal may order disclosure of information that the tribunal determines to be the interest of justice.
History: Laws 1994, ch. 107, § 312; 2005, ch. 166, § 23.
The 2005 amendment, effective June 17, 2005, deleted all former provisions which provided that a tribunal could order that the address of a child or party or other identifying information not be disclosed in a document filed in a proceeding under the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act and added a provision requiring a tribunal to seal information if a party alleges that the health, safety or liberty of a party or a child will be jeopardized by disclosure of information and that permits the tribunal to disclose information after a hearing.
