Court Rule 1:38-11. Sealing of Court Records
(a) Information in a court record may be sealed by court order for good cause as defined in this section. The moving party shall bear the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that good cause exists.
(b) Good cause to seal a record shall exist when:
(1) Disclosure will likely cause a clearly defined and serious injury to any person or entity; and
(2) The person’s or entity’s interest in privacy substantially outweighs the presumption that all court and administrative records are open for public inspection pursuant to R. 1:38.
