In The
              Court of Appeals
Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana
          _______________________________

        TAQUAN RASHAD SPRIGGS, Appellant

                            V.

            THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

          On Appeal from the 4th District Court
                 Rusk County, Texas
              Trial Court No. CR19-198

       Before Morriss, C.J., Burgess and Stevens, JJ.
                                            ORDER

       Our review of the reporter’s record in this case indicates that it contains “sensitive data” as

that phrase is defined in Rule 9.10 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See TEX. R. APP.

P. 9.10(a). Sensitive data includes “a driver’s license number, passport number, social security

number, tax identification number or similar government-issued personal identification number.”

TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(a)(1). Volume five of the reporter’s record includes a social security number.

Rule 9.10(b) states, “Unless a court orders otherwise, an electronic or paper filing with the court,

including the contents of any appendices, must not contain sensitive data.” TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(b).

       Rule 9.10(g) provides, “A court may also order that a document be filed under seal in paper

form or electronic form, without redaction.” TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(g). Therefore, because volume

five of the reporter’s record contains sensitive data, we order the clerk of this Court or her

appointee, in accordance with Rule 9.10(g), to seal the electronically filed volume five of the

reporter’s record in this case.

       IT IS SO ORDERED.

                                                              BY THE COURT
