Directs the Administrative Officer of the Courts to develop a process for making copies of the appellate division reports available for purchase at a purchase price that equals the actual cost to the state for publication and shipping of the report.

Additionally requires that the appellate division reports be available electronically through publication in a downloadable format on a publicly available website, at no cost to the recipient.
