(a) Grand Jurors.
The names of jurors drawn from the qualified jury wheel and selected to sit on a grand jury
shall be kept confidential and not made public or disclosed to any person not employed by the
district court, except as otherwise authorized by a court order in an individual case pursuant to 28
U.S.C. § 1867(f).
(b) Sealed Records.
All subpoenas, motions, pleadings, and other documents filed with the clerk concerning or
contesting grand jury proceedings shall be sealed unless otherwise ordered by the court, based upon
a showing of particularized need. This rule shall not be interpreted to preclude necessary service of
papers on opposing parties or their counsel, nor prohibit the clerk from providing copies of papers
to the party or counsel filing them.
(c) Security.
When the grand jury is in session, the area surrounding the grand jury room shall be secured,
and no one shall be permitted to wander about, sit in the corridors, or attempt to ascertain the identity
of witnesses or members of the grand jury.
