Administration cannot determine whether it has an accurate copy of such
a record or document, the person requesting a copy shall be referred to
the court involved.

reflecting consideration of possible criminal prosecution of any
individual, all names and other information that would identify an
individual who was considered for criminal prosecution but who was not
prosecuted shall be deleted unless the Commissioner concludes that there
is a compelling public interest in the disclosure of such names.
