Free CourtListener Docket Sheet and Documents for Major Tax Crimes Case (Also Major White Collar Crimes Case) (7/3/25)

I write to inform principally students and young lawyers of a case with documents that can educate in both tax crimes and white collar crimes. The case is United States v. Goldstein (D. Md. No. 8:25-cr-00006), with free access to docket entries on CourtListener, here. CourtListener has the docket entries but offers free access to a document only after the first CourtListener member retrieves the document from PACER, a paid service. For a case of this notoriety, most of the important documents will have been so retrieved and are available free.

Although I have only looked at some of the documents that interest me, I think the quality of lawyering is very good. Furthermore, tax crimes are white-collar crimes in a tax setting. Hence, the documents (which are many) are often hashing out themes that will be of interest to lawyers and students of white -collar crimes.

I recommend that those interested review the CourtListener document entries and review the documents that you find interesting. 

You can also do a search of the CourtListener Recap Archive which has docket sheets and documents for all federal cases. The Recap Archive with case search features is here and looks like this:


Finally, CourtListener is a good resource. The home page is here. It is free to join and relies on donations. In my practice and writing, I use CourtListener a lot.

There are other similar free services, but this is the one I use. I'm not saying that it is the best, but it is my go-to source for court documents.
