No. Judicial notice is only used when an event or condition is commonly known to citizens of that district. For example, a judge may take judicial notice that Main Street runs from north to south; or that the weather on June 2, 2010 was 76 degrees and partly cloudy.
Decisions in another jurisdiction are known as "persuasive authority," meaning the judge can take them into consideration, but does not have to do so, and definitely does not need to follow those decisions.
