Sarah Palin’s divorce papers will go under wraps, a judge has ruled.

Anchorage Superior Court Judge Una Gandbhir ordered that the case file be sealed from the public, following the revelation earlier this week that Todd Palin filed for divorce following 31 years of marriage to the erstwhile Alaska governor and vice-presidential candidate.

While the parties are only identified in documents by their initials, a number of other pieces of information indicate the case belongs to the former Alaskan governor and onetime vice-presidential hopeful — including birthdates, wedding date, hometown, middle initials, and the initials of their uniquely-named minor son, Trig Paxson Van Palin.

Todd filed for divorce on Sept. 6, his 55th birthday.

Gandbhir’s ruling is not public, but court records show it followed a request from both parties that their case be designated confidential.

Lawyers for the Palins did not immediately return messages.
