Private legal documents full of personal details left out in the open for weeks where anyone can rifle through them. Thats what our hidden cameras discovered at San Franciscos superior court. A Senior Investigative reporter bigad shaban explains, the courts new process for filing cases during this pandemic may have violated the privacy of some of San Franciscos most vulnerable. Theres just stacks and stacks of documents here. Reporter these are sensitive records that are supposed to be kept confidential according to california state law. But theyre out here in the open inside the lobby of this San Francisco superior courthouse. This box has requests for Domestic Violence restraining orders. Reporter theyre documents detailing family disputes like custody battles and spousal support, kids names and birth dates are included. We need to keep the courts open to address these issues but thats not an excuse for ignoring personal privacies. Reporter we showed what we found to attorney Jerry Flanagan with a consumer watchdog. A person involved in domestic dispute or spousal abuse, if they know that information is going to be generally available to the public, they may hold back and not file the documents. Reporter once youre through the security checkpoint, you can see the records even if theyre not yours. All these documents are just left out in the open for anyone to look through or even take. To avoid the spread of coronavirus, you can no longer hand over your legal documents to a clerk. Instead, you have to drop off your paperwork in these boxes and then come back in a couple of days to pick them up from these other boxes after the court has processed them. So you cant see anyone at all . No. You just have to pick up the documents here in the lobby . Yep. Reporter this is not the kind of thing youd expect to be happening in whats supposed to be the technological capital of the world. Literally in the backyard of silicon valley, the San Francisco courts are still on paper filing for some of the most sensitive matters. Reporter each of californias 58 counties has its own superior court. About a third of them offer at least some type of efiling where documents can be submitted to the court electronically. Marin and solano dont use any efiling. Neith neeither does alameda, but they still accept documents by fax machine. In San Francisco, documents relating to family issues still need to be filed in person on paper. That includes Domestic Violence restraining orders and adoption applications. What its putting on display is a problem of a paperbased legal system that was an issue even prior to the pandemic. Reporter getting rid of paper is a specialty at salesforce, headquartered in San Francisco. In this digital age, everyone and everything is connected. Reporter the company made 17 billion last year helping governments and businesses move their workflows into the cloud. Covid19 or not, the urgency is very, very present. Reporter this woman is an executive Vice President with salesforce. Any company thats actually gone through this Digital Transformation can actually conduct business in our current state. Maybe not quite business as usual for any of us, but at least they have the infrastructure in place. Reporter we wanted to speak with someone here at San Francisco superior court to find out why confidential documents were left unprotected. The court declined and instead sent us a statement saying it has now implemented a system so that confidential documents cannot be viewed by the public. So what is that new system, and when did it go into effect . A Court Spokesperson would not answer those questions, only telling us the court does not discuss its internal operations. So we went back inside the courthouse. Remember that table full of documents . Its now empty. When did they change it . This week. They removed the boxes this week . Yes. Reporter instead of coming up with a way to make the pickup process more secure, the court has apparently decided to take away everyones access to all records, even your own. So you can drop off but you cant pick up right now. So the next time people can pick up the documents is when . May 4th. Reporter normal operations are supposed to resume here at the court next month, but thats been delayed before. So its unclear how much longer people may have to wait to resolve even the most urgent legal issues. With the investigative unity, im bigad shaban.
