I posted this request a few months back, but alas, no responses.
Perhaps someone new is listening:

I heard that a court case last year ordered NASA to release the 
cockpit black box tape from Challenger.  This was around June or
so of last year.  There was a reported 2-3 minutes of tape *AFTER*
the explosion.

Anyone know any details on this.  The case was brought to court by
the New York Times, but I haven't seen anything in there about it.
