A Wisconsin Motion to Seal or Redact a Court Record is a legal filing that is used to request a court to restrict access to a document or certain information contained within a court record. This motion is used to protect the privacy of individuals or entities involved in a legal case, such as a plaintiff or defendant. In some cases, a judge may grant a motion to seal a court record in order to protect sensitive information, such as a trade secret, that could be compromised if released to the public. There are two types of Wisconsin Motion to Seal or Redact a Court Record: a Motion to Seal or Redact a Court Record and a Motion to Redact or Remove a Document from a Court File. The Motion to Seal or Redact a Court Record is used to request that certain information on an existing court record be made confidential and unavailable to the public. The Motion to Redact or Remove a Document from a Court File is used to request that a document or court record be removed from the court file entirely and not accessible to the public.
