Why would a court record not be allowed to be view in public records?
Pepper52
Not ALL court records are documents readily available to the public. For instance: Proceedings in juvenile cases. Family court cases in which the custody of minor children is bitterly fought over. Criminal cases in which the names of confidential informants or undercoover operatives are named. Civil cases where sensitive commercial information is disclosed. Etc, etc. Judges have the authority to seal such court records for good reason, to keep their contents from being disclosed in the media or to the general public.
