The US Treasury website describes printed money specifications to assist with counterfeit recognition. I cannot find a reference to code, regulations or other authority that will allow one of our judges to take "judicial notice" that the design of a bill does not meet specifications (a small claims action where expert testimony is prohibitive) as I cannot find a section that repeats the information provided on the website.
Any assistance to help save some time is appreciated.
Now, if I were in Australia, I would have had the exact information in a second. Thank you Australia!!
