I hope they have the good sense to indicate in the file description or
name that it was changed during the 30 days. That way, one will know
which opinions were changed.

I take enormous exception to the practice of court making phantom changes
to electronic files, keeping the same file name for different verions of
the same file, and even resetting the file date!! Of course, software
vendors have been doing that for years.
