The Office of the Federal Register announced that it now has free electronic access to public documents. These are documents that have been filed with the Public Inspection Desk. While this may not be exciting news to most of you, I was thrilled when I saw the news release. In the “old days” the only way to see these documents was to physically visit the Office of the Federal Register in Washington, DC. I used to send messengers over to copy the files when a new regulation was about to be issued as we wanted to see it first and be prepared to advise our clients. So for me, this is terrific news!
