High Profile Cases

All public court documents in cases the Judicial Branch has determined to be of great interest to the media and the public are posted on this web page. This assures full access without compromising the litigants' right to a full and fair trial. It is our goal to accommodate the media and the public to the best of our abilities.

All public documents (documents that are non-confidential and not sealed) provided here will not be provided by the clerk's office, except to law enforcement or other government agencies. Please check this web page often for updates and documents related to the case.

Case information and public documents will be removed from the website once the case is no longer active or considered of great interest to the media and the public.
