     Any judicial opinions, verdicts, etc. must be considered public 
domain. 

     Otherwise, giving copyright monopoly on these would prove, well 
beyond any reasonable doubt, that the courts only exist to support a 
system which does not represent the best interests of the 
jurisdiction's citizens. 

     By the way, this is my opinion and it is copyrighted.
