Confidentiality for Protected Groups
Chapter 119.071 of the Florida Statutes states that individuals in certain professions, as well as their spouses and/or children, may request that the Clerk & Comptroller remove personal information from documents in the Official Record.
Please refer to the list of qualifying professions* under Section 119.071 F.S. before submitting your request. An “x” indicates which information categories apply to your request.
If you believe you have information that is protected by this statute and would like to have it shielded from public view, you must search the public records to identify specifically which records need to be modified and then complete a Request for Confidentiality form, giving us permission to modify the records.
*The Request for Confidentiality form and the list of qualifying professions are available in PDF format. You will need the free Adobe Reader to view them.
