Are Grand Jury Proceedings Secret?
Most courts have rules that prohibit disclosure of grand jury
proceedings. The rules typically apply to the government attorneys, the
grand jury members, and the court personnel.
Persons who are the subject of a grand jury proceeding are not entitled to any notice regarding the scope of the investigation or the nature of the incidents under consideration. They are generally not allowed to have an attorney present with them in the grand jury room, but may be permitted to leave from time to time to consult with an attorney outside the grand jury room.
