"Accessing federal court opinions will soon get easier for the public.
The U.S. Government Printing Office announced Wednesday that it is collaborating with the federal judiciary to launch a yearlong pilot program that will make federal court opinions available for free on the Federal Digital System (or FDsys) -- the office's centralized online database of government documents.
Federal court opinions are already available for free on PACER, but people will not need a login to locate opinions in FDsys, as they do with PACER, said Karen Redmond, public information officer for the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts.
"If you're a lawyer, you may think, 'Those opinions are easy to find,' " Redmond said. "But it you're a member of the public, you might not know about PACER. This is more like one-stop shopping for the public. We're just trying to enhance what is available."
