Under the new Rules 1:38-7 Confidential Personal Identifies must be redacted from all documents filed with the Court except a Case Information Statement, its attachments, and the Confidential Litigant Information Sheet. Litigants now must certify to the Court that no such identifiers are being filed outside of the afore referenced documents.
 
Personal Identifiers include:

  • Social Security Number
  • Drivers License Number
  • Vehicle Plate Number
  • Insurance Policy Number
  • Active Financial Account Number
  • Active Credit Card Number

You can however refer to an account by last 4 digits if necessary to distinguish from another account. What this means: Get out your black sharpie and mark up those docs before submitting them to the Court.
