(a) Conditions
The "conditions of probation" set forth on any official probation form as may be approved for use in the
United States District Courts shall be deemed included in the conditions of probation prescribed by the Court as
to every defendant placed on probation. Copies of that form shall be signed by the probationer and one copy
shall be delivered to the probationer by the probation office at the time the defendant is placed on probation.
(b) Records
No confidential records of this Court maintained by the probation office, including presentence and
probation supervision records, shall be sought by any applicant except by written petition to this Court
establishing with particularity the need for specific information in the records.
When a demand for disclosure of presentence and probation records is made by way of subpoena or
other judicial process to a probation officer of this Court, the probation officer may file a petition seeking
instruction from the Court with respect to responding to the subpoena. Whenever a probation officer is
subpoenaed for such records, he or she shall petition the Court in writing for authority to release documentary
records or produce testimony with respect to such confidential information. In either event no disclosure shall
be made except upon an order issued by the Court.
