Property-Record Redaction by State: Eligibility, Covered Records, and Official Requests

Status: eligibility, covered record systems, official request channels, duration, and republication duty are rendered for all 51 jurisdictions plus the US-federal comparator below, citation-bound to primary government sources (see the by-state tables). Not legal advice.

Short answer

Every jurisdiction below has at least one qualifying redaction, substitute-address, or court-order mechanism under the pinned method — but the mechanism varies widely: an Address Confidentiality Program administered by a Secretary of State or Attorney General in most states, a court-order confidentiality rule administered by the courts in others (e.g. Wyoming), and a narrower driver-license or record-system-specific rule in a few. A jurisdiction being “found” never means its mechanism covers property records specifically, every protected class, or every downstream publisher — each field below stays bound to what its own cited source states, and a record system or duty the source does not address renders as a typed unknown rather than inferred coverage.

Who may request property-record redaction?

Varies by jurisdiction — see the by-state table below (52 rows: 51 jurisdictions plus the US-federal comparator). rd.protected_classes The statute-and-eligibility table below renders each jurisdiction's own protected-class language and controlling citation. Eligibility is jurisdiction-specific and is never generalized from one state's protected class or source row to another.

Source: each row transcludes its jurisdiction's rd.* cells from the p4-gate-closed final cells corpus (cells/<JUR>.json). Citation chain (source URL, snapshot hash, fetch event) for every row lives in this page's companion sources.json.

Which property-record systems are covered?

Varies by jurisdiction — see the by-state table below (52 rows: 51 jurisdictions plus the US-federal comparator). rd.record_systems_covered The table above renders three independent answers — recorder or deed records, assessor records, and tax-roll records — derived separately from each jurisdiction's own cited source text. A jurisdiction whose mechanism is court-order or driver-license based (not property-record based) typically shows Not stated in all three columns; that is the accurate result of method-rd's broader existence definition (which also counts court, voter, DMV, and licensing mechanisms), not a gap in this page's extraction. Silence on one record system is never treated as coverage of another.

How to use the official request channel

Varies by jurisdiction — see the by-state table below (52 rows: 51 jurisdictions plus the US-federal comparator). rd.request_mechanism Varies by jurisdiction — see the by-state table below (52 rows: 51 jurisdictions plus the US-federal comparator). rd.administering_office

For eligibility and application procedures, consult the administering agency through its official channel.

How long redaction lasts

Varies by jurisdiction — see the by-state table below (52 rows: 51 jurisdictions plus the US-federal comparator). rd.duration Renewal terms, expiration, and permanence are rendered only when the jurisdiction's own cited source states them (see the Duration column above); a silent source renders as a typed unknown, never a permanence inference.

What downstream publishers must do

Varies by jurisdiction — see the by-state table below (52 rows: 51 jurisdictions plus the US-federal comparator). rd.republication_duty Most jurisdictions' cited sources establish only a forward-looking nondisclosure duty on the government body or court holding the protected information — not an affirmative duty for a third-party publisher to correct, remove, or republish information already published elsewhere. Where the Republication duty column above reads None found or Typed unknown, that is the accurate, evidence-checked result for most jurisdictions, not an extraction gap: a stated nondisclosure duty is never read as an unproven downstream republication or takedown duty.

How the federal judges rule fits the state matrix

The US-federal row is a comparator, not an extension of any state's rule and not an extension to any reader outside its own covered class:

• Statute: Daniel Anderl Judicial Security and Privacy Act of 2022, Pub. L. 117-263 subtitle D, is set out in the U.S. Code under Title 28 judicial-administration notes.
• Covered class: At-risk individuals include federal judges, senior/recalled/retired federal judges, and listed immediate-family or household members.
• Covered systems: Covered information includes home address, personal contact, SSN/driver license, financial, vehicle, child, birthdate, school/day-care, and employment-location information; government agencies must remove covered information from publicly available content after request.
• Administering office: Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts may make notices/requests for covered federal judges; specified court chief judges may act for their court categories.

This federal row does not extend to state court proceedings, state agency records, or any reader outside the Act's own covered at-risk-individual class.

Property-record redaction vs. address confidentiality programs

Varies by jurisdiction — see the by-state table below (52 rows: 51 jurisdictions plus the US-federal comparator). rd.record_systems_covered Property-record redaction and substitute-address eligibility answer different questions, and this page authors no substitute-address eligibility fact. Substitute-address program eligibility, business-filing usability, and official program links remain in Address Confidentiality Programs by State; a jurisdiction found on this page's redaction table is not automatically the same jurisdiction's Address Confidentiality Program, and neither process substitutes for the other.
