Servs., 29 F.3d. 280 (7th Cir. 1994) [District Court properly considered public court documents filed in earlier state court case in deciding defendants' motion to dismiss, since district court may take judicial notice of matters of public record without converting rule 12(b)(6) motion into motion for summary judgment]; In re Phillips, 593 F.2d. 356 (8th Cir. 1979) [Bankruptcy judge did not err in taking judicial notice of state court petition against bankrupt in order to determine nature of debt created by resulting default judgment against bankrupt]; Schweitzer v. Scott, 469 F.Supp. 1017 (C.D. Cal. 1979) [court is empowered to take judicial notice of court files and records]).
