  Lessons from Bankruptcy Court Public Records
 
 
Titel: Lessons from Bankruptcy Court Public Records
Auteur: Henderson, Kristin A.
Verschenen in: Legal reference services quarterly
Paginering: Jaargang 23 (2004) nr. 2-3 pagina's 55-83
Jaar: 2004-05-01
Inhoud: This article addresses the conflict in values for law librarians posed by the online availability of consumer bankruptcy court records. There is a significant amount of personal and financial information in a consumer bankruptcy filing. Law librarians espouse free access to legal information, which is a value served by online access to bankruptcy court records. However, law librarians also advocate individual privacy, which is a conflicting value. This article briefly examines the contents of a consumer bankruptcy filing, then examines the competing values. The conflict is apparent to policymakers as well, and the article examines responses of each of the three branches of government to the tension between access and privacy in bankruptcy court records, including changes to the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure and the Official Bankruptcy Forms. Finally, the article offers suggestions as to what law librarians might do in continuing to address the conflict in values.
