What is the reasoning that they are obligated to provide it? I'm no expert in this area, but I don't think the fact that they are public domain means they are obligated to provide them to you? Is there a separate requirement on law text that says they must be provided? (It would be sane for that to exist, but...)
You could try FOIAing them or suing them if you think there is an actual obligation.
- CrimsonCape 3y agoI don't believe code publishers are obligated to publish their model code. Especially because the local jurisdiction might adopt amendments that differ from the code they wrote and control. Therefore I think they are perfectly ok offering a generic endpoint to the general public as a convenience, and have no liability when the adopted code might differ from what they provided. From the government side, I believe that since the courts determined that adopted model codes are public domain, they are obligated to publish the code. Is the government required to publish text version of all applicable laws?
