What information is Public

Privacy Protections on Probate Cases

Pennsylvania allows for un-redacted confidential information to be publicly accessible, and for guardianship hearings to be open.

If the court does not so require, and a party does not file a motion, confidential information may not be redacted and is accessible to the public. Guardianship hearings are open to the public and may have a jury.
