I wonder what the court rules say on this?

For paper filings, once a complaint is filed and the court file set up, unless it is under seal, the public can go into the clerk's office and make a copy. Why would electronic filing be any different? And, therefore, what would be the objection to posting on this list?

         To avoid any ambiguity, you could ask the plaintiff's attorney whether he would grant permission for the complaint to be posted to this list. According to news reports, the attorney is Joe Dreitler of Jones Day.
