"PACER is a digital warehouse for U.S. court documents in the public domain. The system is managed by the AO and funded through a fee structure that includes charging 10 cents per page of search results within the systems and 10 cents per actual page of public court documents. Public domain advocates have long criticized those fees and argued that the system is difficult to navigate for the average citizen."

Yes, I'm WELL aware of that wink

"Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.) also expressed concern about the removal of access to court archives in an interview with the Post -- and criticized the current fee structure of the system. "I do think it's a little archaic the way it's being done," she said. "The idea that it's 10 cents a page is astonishing in this day and age, and there are way better alternatives than what they're doing."

Finally, a politician I can agree with big smile
