This collection includes documents filed in U.S. v. Washington, Western District of Washington Docket No. 70-cv-9213. Some of the filings relate to the case's subproceedings, which have separate docket numbers. Documents filed in the subproceedings were also filed on the main U.S. v. Washington docket. If a document is related to a subproceeding, that is noted in the title and the entry number for the subproceeding docket is provided.

This collection is possible because of the incredible work of John Hollowed from the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission. Mr. Hollowed gathered and organized digital copies of all of the original filings and it is because of his dedication that we are able to provide access to these documents.

This project is ongoing and additional filings will continue to be added.
