Imagine if the county were to reimburse you the difference for all the copies you've bought in the past five years? You could be due thousands of dollars.

In 2004, a settlement was reached in a class action lawsuit filed on behalf of persons who were overcharged for courthouse documents. In November, 2006 two counties in Pennsylvania agreed to rebate $1.6 million to people who had duplicated documents in the clerks' offices since 1996.
