Federal court opinions available on GPO website

Friday, May 10, 2013

The Administrative Office of the United States Courts has entered into a joint agreement with the U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO) providing public access to opinions from appellate, district and bankruptcy courts on the GPO web site.  PDF searchable, unrestricted and unsealed opinions from the New Mexico Bankruptcy Court dating back to 1997 have been uploaded to the site and will automatically upload to the site in the future.  The GPO opinions database is available here:

A link has also been added to the opinions page of the Court’s web site.

The GPO site is another alternative to users searching for federal court opinions.  Existing opinion sources (e.g., the Court’s web site, PACER and the docket sheets themselves) will continue to be available and updated.
