No, even in the US, we do not consider the "courts" as a "government
agency." :) 

Is there a place in the document that you are looking at?

Stupid question from a non-native English speaking European about
the meaning of a word in the text on conflicts with national privacy
laws:

Is a 'court of law' a 'government agency'?

I would never, ever, include courts under government agencies. And
judges in my country would hang me if I did (and we still had capital
punishment, which we fortunately do not). But if this is normal in US
English, I have no problems. So just for clarification. Thanks.
