Sec.  20.102  Court enforcement records.

    (a) All records and documents filed in the courts are available for 
public disclosure unless the court orders otherwise. The Food and Drug 
Administration will make available for public disclosure such records or 
documents if the agency can determine that it has an accurate copy of 
the actual record or document filed in the court. If the Food and Drug 
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.
    (b) After a recommendation for court action has been finally refused 
by a United States attorney, the correspondence with the United States 
attorney and the Department of Justice with respect to that 
recommendation, including the pleadings recommended for filing with the 
court, is available

for public disclosure. Prior to disclosure of any record specifically 
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.
