Dear Members of the U.S. Judicial Conference:

     As a journalist who uses the decisions by the federal courts 
almost daily, I urge you to adopt a public domain citation for 
judicial opinions.

     Many journalists across this nation who need access to judicial 
opinions as quickly as possible via electronic publishing are 
hampered by the exclusive us of West's citation system.

     Thank you.

                                   Charles Levendosky
