We have for consideration an out-of-cyele report filed by the Rules of Judicial Administration Committee (RJA Committee) proposing a number of amendments to Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.420 (Public Access to Judicial Branch Records) that are intended to clarify the rule and refine the procedures for determining the confidentiality of court records. See Fla. R. Jud. Admin. 2.140(e). We adopt the majority of the amendments as proposed, make minor modifications to several proposals, and decline to adopt only one proposed new subdivision.1
BACKGROUND
Amendments Made in Case Nos. SC07-2050 and SC10-2242
In In re Amends, to Fla. Rule of Jud. Admin. 2420 & Fla. Rules of App. Pro., 31 So.3d 756 (Fla.2010), the Court added new subdivision (d) (Procedures for Determining Confidentiality of Court Records) to rule 2.420, which governs public access to judicial branch records. Subdivision (d) provides a procedure that allows the clerks of court to readily identify and screen from the public confidential information filed with the court. Adopting a procedure that ensures the confidentiality of a narrow set of readily identifiable court records was a necessary prerequisite to this Court’s ongoing effort to provide the public with electronic access to court records. Id. at 757. The new subdivision also provides a procedure to ensure that confidential information that is not automatically screened from public view by the clerk will be the subject of a determination of confidentiality by the court. Id. at 763. The procedures for sealing and unsealing court records also were refined. Id. at 757. The goal of these comprehensive amendments to rule 2.420 was to balance the public’s constitutional right to access to court records with the courts’ responsibility to protect from public access court records that are confidential. Id. at 758.
As relevant here, subdivision (d)(1) of rule 2.420 sets forth the procedure for the clerks of court to automatically designate and maintain certain court records as confidential. The records listed in subdivisions (c)(7) and (c)(8) that must be automatically designated confidential by the clerk are limited to a “finite set” of statutory and rule exemptions listed in subdivision (d)(1)(B). Id. at 765. As originally adopted, subdivision (d)(1)(B) contained nineteen categories of automatically confidential information. Id. at 765. Subdivision (d)(2) currently requires a filer of confidential information to provide the clerk of court with a written notice that identifies the applicable category of automatically confidential information and the specific location of the confidential information within the document being filed. Subdivision (d)(3) requires a filer to seek a judicial determination of confidentiality as to court records the filer believes are confidential under the rule but are not designated as automatically confidential under subdivision (d)(1)(B).
In In re Amends, to Fla. Rule of Jud. Admin. 2420, 68 So.3d 228 (Fla.2011), the Court amended subdivision (d)(1)(B) of rule 2.420 and its companion notice form to add presentence investigation reports and *821attached psychological and psychiatric evaluations as the twentieth category of automatically confidential information. Id. In that opinion, the Court emphasized that “[a] party seeking to maintain as confidential psychological or mental health evaluations not included in rule 2.420(d)(1)(B) must utilize the procedures set forth in rule 2.420(d)(3).” Id. The Court also specifically declined a request to add all mental health evaluations and reports filed in criminal cases to the list of automatically confidential information. Id. at 230.
This Case
In this case, the RJA Committee reported various problems in implementation of the amendments to rule 2.420. The RJÁ Committee determined that some problems arose from the apparent failure on the part of filers and clerks of court to follow the rule as written. According to the Committee, most of the problems with compliance with the rule either have been resolved or should be resolved after filers and clerks become more accustomed to the operation of the rule and further education is made available. However, the RJA Committee determined that further amendments are warranted in’ order to clarify some of the provisions of the rule and to further refine the procedures for determining the confidentiality of court records. The committee vote on the majority of the proposed amendments was 20-4:. 2 The Board of Governors of The Florida Bar unanimously approved all the proposals.
After the proposals were filed, the Court published them for comment. Comments were filed by Brevard County Clerk of Court Mitch Needelman and the Florida Public Defender Association (FPDA). The RJA Committee filed a response to the comments. After the response was filed, the Florida Courts Technology Commission and its Subcommittee on Access to Court Records (collectively “Access Subcommittee”) filed an agreed to motion to intervene, file a comment, and appear at oral argument in this case. That motion was granted. The Access Subcommittee’s comment opposes FPDA’s request that the Court add all mental health evaluations and reports in criminal cases to the list of automatically confidential information under rule 2.420(d)(1)(B). The Court heard oral argument on the proposals and FPDA’s request;
After considering the filings in this case, as well as the matters discussed at oral argument, we adopt the majority of the amendments as proposed. We discuss below the more significant amendments as well as the modifications we make and the proposal we decline to adopt.
We thank the RJA Committee and the members of RJA Subcommittee B for providing proposals that will facilitate compliance with this important rule. We also thank the numerous non-committee members who assisted the subcommittee'with this effort, as well as those who filed comments. As pointed out by the RJA Committee, we also acknowledge that because of the unavoidable complexity of the procedures for determining confidentiality of court records, future amendments to rule 2.420 likely will become necessary. However, we encourage attorneys, clerks of court, and judges to take advantage of educational opportunities that are designed to help them understand their respective responsibilities under the rule.
*822AMENDMENTS
New subdivision (b)(6) (Definitions; “Filer”) is added to rule 2.420, as proposed. The new subdivision defines the terra “filer,” as used in the rule, as “any person who files a document in court records,” and specifically excludes “the clerk of court or designee of the clerk, a judge, magistrate, hearing officer, or designee of a judge, magistrate, or hearing officer” from the definition. The term “filer” also is added to other subdivisions of the rule. New subdivision (d)(5), discussed below, now requires the court to put the clerk of court on “notice” of confidential information in a document filed by the court.
Several significant amendments are made to subdivision (d) (Procedures for Determining Confidentiality of Court Records). First, subdivision (d)(1)(B) is amended to clarify that the language of the controlling statute or rule, not the language used within the twenty listed categories of automatically confidential information, must be looked to when determining what information must be maintained confidential by the clerk of court. Subdivisions (d)(l)(B)(i)-(xx) are amended to make the language used to describe the twenty categories of automatically confidential information consistent with the referenced statutes or rule. For example, the amendment to subdivision (d)(l)(B)(xx), which currently lists “[pjresentence investigation reports and attached psychological or psychiatric evaluations,” deletes the statutory references. The RJA Committee recommended deleting the statutory references because it determined the cited statutes do not specifically make the presentence investigation reports exempt. Only the reference to rule 3.712, which makes the pre-sentence investigation report confidential, is retained. The reference to “attached psychological or psychiatric evaluations” also is deleted because the Committee determined that that reference could be misinterpreted to mean that such evaluations would keep their exempt status for other purposes. The word “complete” is added before “presentence investigation reports” to indicate that all attachments to the pre-sentence investigation report, including psychological or psychiatric evaluations, are also confidential.3
The most significant change to subdivision (d)(2) is the deletion of the requirement that the filer identify the specific subdivision (d)(1)(B) category of confidential information that applies to the information identified in the notice of confidential information. The RJA Committee proposed this amendment because it determined the existing notice form was too explicit and could result in the filer disclosing the very information the filer is attempting to keep confidential. For instance, by filing a notice that specifies that a document contains HIV, tuberculosis, or sexually transmitted disease information, one has potentially revealed the information sought to be kept confidential. Consistent with amendments to subdivision (d)(2), we also amend the notice form, appended to the rule, to make it more generic and concise.
However, the filer still must identify the precise location of the confidential information within the document being filed. After consulting with a number of clerks of court, the RJA Committee determined this requirement was sufficient because the *823clerks of court are familiar with the subdivision (d)(1)(B) categories of confidential information. Subdivision (d)(2) also is amended to' provide that if an entire document is confidential, the filer need only indicate that the entire document is confidential, and that the notice need not be filed if the entire court file is confidential.
New subdivision (d)(2)(A) allows for “after-the-fact” notification of confidential information in a court filing. The notice can be used by the filer, a party,' or any affected non-party when confidential information or documents were not initially identified by the filer and are not being maintained as confidential by the clerk of court. The option to file the after-the-fact note also is added to the notice form.
Subdivision (d)(2)(B) addresses the clerk of court’s duty in connection with filings identified as containing confidential information. The more significant amendments to this subdivision include: (1) providing for the new after-the-fact notice; (2) removing the reference to specific subdivision (d)(1)(B) categories of confidential information; and (3) clarifying the time frames for action by the clerk of court.
As noted above, the amended Notice of Confidential Information within Court Filing form, appended to the rule, is a more concise form that does not require the filer to specifically identify which of the twenty subdivision (d)(1)(B) categories applies to the information being filed. The new form is to be used with the initial filing of confidential documents and. for after-the-fact notification of confidential information that is already in the court file. The certificate of service in the form is amended, as proposed, to accommodate service on affected non-parties and to include a reference to new subdivision (k) (Procedure for Service on Victims and Affected Non-parties and When Addresses Are Confidential), which is discussed below. We have revised the certificate of service form to provide for service consistent with new Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516 (Service of Pleadings and Documents).
Subdivision (d)(4), which addresses the giving of notice to affected non-parties, is amended to add references to subdivisions (g)(1) (motion to determine confidentiality of appellate court records in noncriminal case) and (g)(5) (non-party request to vacate order sealing appellate court records). A reference to new subdivision (k), which will govern service on non-parties, also is added and the last sentence concerning service on a non-party is deleted.
New subdivision (d)(5) requires a judge, magistrate, or hearing officer (“court”) who files an order or other document containing confidential information to identify the confidential information as confidential and include in the title of the document the word “confidential.” The court also must provide the clerk with a copy of the order or other document with the confidential information redacted.
Several of the amendments to subdivision (e) (Request to Determine Confidentiality of Trial Court Records in Noncriminal Cases) warrant discussion. First, subdivisions (e)(l)(B)-(C) are amended to advise the filer of a motion to determine confidentiality of court records that, when specifying the bases for determining the records are confidential and setting forth the specific legal authority and legal standard for that determination, the confidential information should not be revealed. Next, the last paragraph of subdivision (e)(1) is amended to clarify that the subdivision applies to “written” motions, as opposed to oral motions, which are now authorized under new subdivision (h) discussed below. Finally, a procedure for filing a response to a written motion is also added.
*824Subdivision (f) (Request to Determine Confidentiality of Court Records in Criminal Cases) is amended to clarify that oral motions are permitted in criminal cases. The most significant amendment to this subdivision is the deletion of the requirement in subdivision (f)(1)(A) that all parties sign the motion to determine confidentiality in order to evidence agreement and avoid the' scheduling of a hearing on the motion.
We amend subdivision (g) (Request to Determine Confidentiality of Appellate Court Records in Noncriminal Cases) as proposed. The most significant amendment is to subdivision (g)(2). That amendment requires an appellate court to issue a written ruling on a motion to determine confidentiality of appellate records in a noncriminal case within 30 days of the filing of a response on a contested motion or within 30 days of the filing of an uncontested written motion.
Subdivision (h) (Oral Motions to Determine Confidentiality of Trial Court Records) is new. The RJA Committee determined that authorizing oral motions will keep information confidential when the movant is unable to file a written motion. To ensure that oral motions are not used to avoid the requirements for written motions to determine confidentiality of trial court records, the new subdivision includes a number of safeguards. Most notably, oral motions generally must comply with the requirements of subdivision (e)(1); all parties or affected non-parties must be present or properly noticed; the movant must show good cause for not filing a written motion; a written motion must be filed within 5 days; and the court may deny an oral motion if the court finds that written motion could have been filed or the movant failed to give adequate notice.
We decline to adopt proposed new subdivision (i) (Confidential Evidence). The RJA Committee proposed the new subdivision for “the purpose of handling confidential evidence in general.” The proposal is in response to the Court’s prior decision, in Case No. SC07-2050, not to apply subdivision (d)(2) to documents introduced into evidence during court proceedings. We rejected that suggestion because the proposal then before the Court did not give adequate guidance as to the procedures the presiding judge would follow. See In re Amends, to Fla. Rule of Jud. Admin. 2420 & Fla. Rules of App. Pro., 31 So.3d at 765 n. 22.
Here, proposed subdivision (i)(3) would require the court to “determine whether evidence or the confidential portions of any transcript of the proceedings shall be sealed.” However, the proposal fails to specify what triggers the determination by the court. It is also unclear to us why proposed subdivision (i) focuses on the closure of proceedings, especially in relation to the hearing of testimony or the asking of questions containing confidential information. Rule 2.420 governs public access to judicial branch records; the rule does not govern public access to court proceedings. Because of these concerns, we decline to adopt this proposal. However, we encourage the RJA committee to reevaluate the proposal, in light of our concerns, and to offer another proposal at a future time.
New subdivision (i) (Sanctions), which was proposed as subdivision (j), consolidates the existing separate sanctions provisions, which are deleted. The RJA Committee determined that creating a separate sanctions subdivision cures inconsistencies in the existing sanctions provisions and makes the title and location of the new sanction provision more prominent and easier to find. The new subdivision is patterned after deleted subdivision (e)(6), and is expanded upon as appropriate. The *825new subdivision also recognizes that it does not limit the authority of the court to enforce any order entered pursuant to the rule.
We adopt new subdivision (j) (Procedure for Obtaining Access to Confidential Court Records), which was proposed as subdivision (k). New subdivision (j) provides a procedure for individuals who have a legal basis for obtaining access to confidential information in court records to gain access to that information by court order that does not alter the confidential status of those records. The filer of confidential information, the filer’s attorney, and the filer’s authorized agent also may obtain access to the information under this subdivision.
As proposed, subdivision (j)(l) also would have required the clerk of court to allow judges access to confidential court records. We removed this requirement as unnecessary. Rule 2.420 governs public access to judicial branch records.4 The rule was never intended to govern or limit access to court records by judges, magistrates, hearing officers, the clerks of court, or court and clerk staff who must have access to those records in order to perform their official court-related duties.
Rule 2.420, originally numbered 2.051, was adopted to conform to article I, section 24 of the Florida Constitution (Access to Public Records and Meetings). See In re Amends. Fla. Rules of Jud. Admin.—Public Access to Judicial Records, 608 So.2d 472 (Fla.1992). The rule recognizes that records that are confidential under the rule are exempt from the public’s constitutional right of access. See Fla. R. Jud. Admin. 2.420(b)(4). As relevant here, judicial branch records include “court records” and are all records “made or received in connection with the transaction of official business by any judicial branch entity,”- including judges. See Fla. R. Jud. Admin. 2.420(b)(1), (b)(2). Rule 2.420 was never intended to limit a judge’s access to court records that are made or received in connection with the transaction of that judge’s official'business of deciding court cases, simply because those records are confidential under the rule and therefore closed to the public. Therefore, we see no reason for the rule to now specifically provide that the clerk of court must allow judges access to confidential court records. The same holds true for court or clerk’s office staff who must have access to confidential records in order to assist the court or the clerk with the official • business of processing court cases.
New subdivision (k) (Procedure for Service on Victims and Affected Non-parties and When Addresses Are Confidential), which was proposed as subdivision (l), consolidates and replaces the various separate provisions for service throughout the rule, which are deleted. Subdivision (k)(l) requires that service on victims of a crime be made by serving the state attorney. Subdivision (k)(2) provides for service on an affected non-party whose name or address is not confidential. Subdivision (k)(3) provides for service by the court when the name or address of the party or affected non-party being served is confidential. We added references to new Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516, which now governs service in general, where appropriate.
Existing subdivision (h) (Denial of Access Request for Administrative Record) is moved to new subdivision (I).
We move existing subdivision (i) (Procedure) to new subdivision (m) and retitle the subdivision “Procedure for Public Access to Judicial Branch Records.” Howev*826er, we decline to amend the subdivision, as proposed, to limit it solely to requests for administrative records. As noted above, rule 2.420 governs public access to judicial branch records, which include both administrative records and court records. See Fla. R. Jud. Admin. 2.420(b)(1). Existing subdivision (i), as will new subdivision (m), provides the procedures for “requests and responses to requests for access to records under [rule 2.420].” At the same time the subdivision (i) procedures were added to rule 2.420, the definitions of “records of the judicial branch,” “court records,” and “administrative records” were added to the rule. See In re Report of the Supreme Court Workgroup on Public Records, 825 So.2d 889, 896 (Fla.2002). If the intent were for those procedures to apply only to administrative judicial branch records that limitation would have been made clear at the time subdivision (i) was adopted. In fact, if we were to now limit this subdivision to requests for access to administrative records, there would be no formal procedure governing records requests for access to court records that are not confidential.
Accordingly, we amend Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.420 as reflected in the appendix to this opinion. New language is indicated by underscoring; deletions are indicated by struck-through type. The amendments shall become effective May 1, 2013, at 12:01 a.m.
It is so ordered.

(A) identify the particular court records or a portion of a record that the movant seeks to have determined as confidential with as much specificity as possible without revealing the information subject to the confidentiality determination;
(B) specify the bases for determining that such court records are confidential without revealing confidential information; and
*830(C)set forth the specific legal authority and any applicable legal standards for determining such court records to be confidential without revealing confidential information.
Any written motion made under this subdivision must include a signed certification by the party or the attorney for the party making the request that the motion is made in good faith and is supported by a sound factual and legal basis. Information that is subject to such a motion must- be treated as confidential by the clerk pending the court’s ruling on the motion. A response to a written motion filed under this subdivision may be served within 10 days of service, of the motion.

Any hearing held under this subdivision must be an open proceeding, except that any person may request that the court conduct all or part of the hearing in camera to protect the interests set forth in subdivision (c). Any person may request expedited consideration of and ruling on the motion. The moving partymovant shall be responsible for ensuring that a complete record of any hearing held pursuant to this subdivision befe created, either by use of a court reporter or by any recording device that is provided as a matter of right by the court. The court may in its discretion require prior public notice of the hearing on such a motion in accordance with the procedure for providing public notice of court orders set forth in subdivision (e)(4) or by providing such other public notice as the court deems appropriate. The court must issue a ruling on the motion within 30 days of the hearing.
(3) Any order granting in whole or in part a motion filed under subdivision (e) must state the following with as much specificity as possible without revealing the confidential information- subject — to the confidentiality determination:-
(A) The type of case in which the order is being entered;
