If such a request is granted, the unpublished disposition will be redesignated an opinion. An order may be specially designated for publication by a majority of the judges acting and when so published may be used for any purpose for which an opinion may be used. A list of all cases that have been decided by written unpublished disposition will be made available periodically to legal publishing companies for notation in its reports. The clerk's office is not given advance notice as to when a disposition will be delivered by the judges for filing and, therefore, cannot supply such information to counsel. When a disposition is filed, the Clerk mails notice of entry of judgment and a copy of the disposition to counsel and the district judge from whom the appeal was taken.
All dispositions are public.
Opinions are also available on the day of filing on the Court's electronic bulletin board service. One may also receive copies of the Court's slip opinions, as they are printed, upon the payment of an annual subscription fee. Printed slip opinions are subject to typographical and printing error. The cooperation of the Bar in calling apparent errors to the attention of the clerk's office is solicited. Upon disposition of an appeal arising out of a bankruptcy court the Clerk of this Court shall furnish a copy of such disposition to the bankruptcy judge who initially ruled on the matter.
