Piece of Code Exposes On the Downlow Editing of Supreme Court Opinions

David Zvenyach, GC to the Council of the District of Columbia, is using an application written in JavaScript to crawl the U.S. Supreme Court's opinions to find changes made without notice to the public, Gigaom reports.

The New York Times' Adam Liptak recently reported on how the justices are surreptiously changing their opinions after they have been issued, sometimes replacing language with something entirely different.

Changes will be tweeted out to @Scotus-servo.
