   Found in a brief filed in federal court:

     See generally United States v. Dorosan, No. 08-042 (E.D. La.
     2008)(U.S. Magistrate Judgeâs June 30, 2008 memorandum holding that
     Heller and Emerson hold that the Second Amendment protects a
     fundamental right)(Found on internet at www.volokh.com, scroll to
     July 16, 2008 blog entries and the entry entitled âNinth Circuitâs
     Sensible Response to a DC v. Heller Claim.â At the end of the
     entry, click the seventh entry entitled âAnother Early Post-Heller
     Second Amendment Caseâ and it will carry the HTML link to the
     Dorosan opinion).

   I don't know what browser or what settings the lawyer was using, but
   generally just clicking on the [1]link to the opinion will show the
   address ("http://volokh.com/files/dorosan.pdf") in the navigation bar
   -- and, if it doesn't, right-clicking on the link will usually give
   you a way of getting the opinion. Plus, I'm told you can always do
   things the old-fashioned way, and attach a copy of the unpublished
   opinion to the brief.

   But on the other hand, I like the idea of our site being a special
   library in which precious documents can be found, even if only through
   elaborate instructions passed along by the cognoscenti. Just go to the
   third floor, turn right at the first black set of stacks, go ten feet
   down, and open the seventh book on the bottom shelf -- you can't miss
   it.
