Dear Friend,

Our research indicates that there has been a quickly growing concern regarding the accessibility and cost of retrieving federal court records by the public. Like many other public records, federal court dockets and filings should be easily accessible by anyone via the internet and should be free of charge--eliminating the "practical obscurity" that has has plagued the courts since they were created.

Using our site anyone can quickly and easily obtain federal civil, criminal, bankruptcy, and appellate court dockets, as well as dockets from the U.S. Court of Federal Claims and the U.S. Court of International Trade.

Providing this free service is no easy task, and generates large costs to us since we must not only purchase the data, but develop and maintain the unique technology used to provide this specialized public information.

If we can generate enough revenue from advertisers, sponsors, and donations we can continue to provide this service, expand and improve upon it tremendously, developing ground-breaking access and judicial openness that will benefit the general public, the legal industry, the media, and many others.

Please voice your support to keep dockets free by donating to our efforts. Without your help it may not be possible for us to continue as our expenses continue to mount.

Thank you,
