You might need to reference it during your pursuit of justice.
For instance, you might need to understand certain statutes to recover from the damages that lawbreaking judges/lawyers/agencies have inflicted upon you [and/or the public] (see this example of a Florida judge who outright committed perjury).
As always, please get the justice you deserve.
Sincerely,
