PACER Federal Court Filings

Every federal court filing is public — but PACER charges 10 cents per page. The Free Law Project's RECAP archive has digitized the most-accessed parts for free.

This project maps patent case migration out of E.D. Texas after the 2017 TC Heartland decision, tracks MDL formation timelines for major product liability cases, and charts the shift of mega-bankruptcies from Delaware to S.D. Texas.
