10 Miss. Code. R. 501-10.7
Upon request to inspect or copy any third-party document, the SLDS Governing Board shall notify the third party who filed the document. Seven (7) working days after such notice, the document will be made available for public inspection and/or copying unless the third party shall have either (i) obtained a court order protecting such records as confidential pursuant to Section 25-61-9, Miss. Code of 1972 or (ii) furnished the SLDS Governing Board a copy of the filed petition for a protective court order, providing the petition was timely filed upon the third party's receipt of notification from the SLDS Governing Board regarding the request for information.
The third party must prove to the court's satisfaction that the record or portion of the records is exempt from disclosure and must deliver the court order preventing the release of all or part of the information to the SLDS Governing Board prior to the deadline to prevent disclosure of the information. The third party must name the requestor as a party to any action to enjoin disclosure.
The SLDS Governing Board will not make a determination as to whether a requested record provided by a third party contains trade secrets or confidential commercial or financial information. The SLDS Governing Board will provide the third-party notice as outlined above and allow the court to determine if a protective order should be issued.
Documents are frequently produced by the SLDS Governing Board that contain specific information directly obtained from a third party and, as such, may be subject to third party notice as described above.
