In a burst of reinvention, though, the high court is asking Congressional appropriators for about $800,000 to take the site in-house (in chamber?) and give it a good overhaul. The Government Printing Office established the site in 2000, and has been running it ever since.
The court has increasingly been doing its own Web production, and in its request to Congress, it noted a rather astonishing mark of success: a “100 percent increase” in hits, to almost 19 million in January 2009, compared with January 2008.

Sounds like an excellent idea, so long as the money is well spent. May be worth the Court’s time to take a look at some of the other sites that are serving their opinions to get ideas and ask for help.
