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

                  No. 06-18-00219-CR

                JOHN WEST, Appellant

                           V.

           THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

        On Appeal from the 196th District Court
                Hunt County, Texas
               Trial Court No. 32151

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

       Our review of the clerk’s record and the reporter’s record in this case indicates that they

contain “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 birth date, a home address, and

the name of any person who was a minor at the time the offense was committed.” TEX. R. APP. P.

9.10(a)(3). The clerk’s record and volumes one and six through twelve of the reporter’s record

contain the names of persons who were minors at the time the offense was committed. 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 the

clerk’s record and volumes one and six through twelve of the reporter’s record contain sensitive

data, we order the clerk of this Court or her appointee, in accordance with Rule 9.10(g), to seal the

electronically filed clerk’s record and volumes one and six through twelve of the reporter’s record.

       IT IS SO ORDERED.

                                                              BY THE COURT
