> Court dockets are mostly concerned with the mechanics of a single case--they are not intended to be a source of law

As a former lawyer turned programmer I just want to say that court opinions posted to the docket are a source of law. Even unpublished opinions have some use, and while you can get some published opinons from court websites its far from comprehensive and not easy to search. Never mind what a great research source other attorney's briefs are.

It would be interesting to see what she, or some AUSAs, have told the courts in their pleadings.

I'm not sure if PACER (http://www.pacer.gov/) has all the criminal pleadings, but it might have those. Its another thing in the long list of items that should be completely free to access.

I think there's a case to be made though, that using IB when starting out doesn't make you fully understand how UIViews work. So starting out I'd probably recommend you make your own views programmatically to know what you're hooking into.

That said once you get that base level of understanding, nibs and storyboards are huge time savers, and are the way to go.

Does EPUB and Mobi scale?
