Much simplified:

create table party
(
countyno smallint not null,
caseno varchar(14) not null,
partyno smallint not null,
name text not null,
address text,
isaddrsealed boolean not null,
primary key (countyno, caseno, partyno)
);

create table sealedaddrauth
(
userid text not null primary key
);

create view partyview as
select countyno, caseno, partyno,
case
when isaddrsealed and not exists
(select * from sealedaddrauth
where userid = current_user)
then '*** SEALED ***'
else address
end as address,
isaddrsealed
from party
;

insert into party values (1,'2010FA000123',1,'Jane Doe',
'123 Victim Ave., Anytown, WI 53599',true);
insert into party values (1,'2010FA000123',2,'John Doe',
'123 Stalker St., Hometown, WI 53666',false);
