The DOJ Web site (www.usdoj.gov) posts the U.S. Attorney's Manual, briefs, advisory letters, regulations, reports, and much more. Especially useful are the pages for the individual Divisions. You can link to these pages from the DOJ Organizational Chart.

Government Attic archives DOJ documents obtained with FOIA requests.

Opinions of the Office of Legal Counsel of the United States Department of Justice back to 1977 are searchable on Lexis (GENFED;USAG) and Westlaw (USAG), and on Hein Online from 1977 to 1996.

Antitrust: The Antitrust Division enforces and explains U.S. atitrus laws. The Division posts selected case filings (1994-present), appellate briefs, Business Review Letters, etc.

In addition, the CCH Trade Regulation Reporter publishes certain Antitrust Division materials, including consent orders and summaries of "complaints, indictments and developments."
