Re: divorce
Court files in SC are only sealed if the Judge orders that they be sealed. Also, the Supreme Court issued an Order a few years ago that made it much more difficult to seal files in all Courts. Without knowing more facts about your particular case, it is not possible to give you more help at this time.
You should consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case. If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.StevensFirm.com). I wish you the best of luck.
