HTML documents shown on
this page are textual representations of briefs originally filed by
the Office of the Solicitor. Page numbers to sections in the
original paper brief have been omitted, however, since they no
longer have relevance in a web document. Links from key portions of
the brief's Table of Contents allow you to examine pertinent text in
the brief without the need for those page numbers. Your browser's
"search" command also gives you access to specific words found in a
brief and/or to legal citations if that is needed. To view the
original page numbers, actual text layout and any relevant
signatures, see the PDF copy of the brief.
