Tennessee Code Title 35. Fiduciaries and Trust Estates § 35-15-1106

(1) Does not involve third parties;

(2) Solely concerns the trustee and the qualified beneficiaries;  and

(3) Relates to matters involving the validity, construction, and administration of a trust, including the duties and powers of a trustee and the rights and interests of a beneficiary.

(c)(1) This section does not abridge the power of any court of competent jurisdiction to order the production of unredacted and complete copies of petitions, filings, and orders that have been redacted or filed under seal to a qualified beneficiary or any other interested person for cause shown.  The existence of a compelling interest for filing documents redacted and under seal with a court must be presumed for all matters involving a trust since such matters involve purely private litigants, matters of purely private concern with little legitimate public interest, and risk serious embarrassment or specific harm from disclosure.

(2) In determining whether the presumption of a compelling interest for filing redacted documents and under seal is overcome, a court may consider, among other factors, whether:

(1) Trust instruments, settlement agreements, modification agreements, trustee resolutions, inventories, accountings, and reports;

(2) The names and addresses of trust settlors, trustees, and beneficiaries;

(3) Trust dispositive terms, including, without limitation:

(4) Corporate and company records relating to trusts;

(5) Personally identifying information, including, without limitation, social security numbers and dates of birth;  and

(6) Any other information the court deems confidential, if there is a compelling interest in protecting the confidentiality of the information which outweighs the public interest in accessing such information.
