  • William Taylor Muse Law Library University of Richmond School of Law
    William Taylor Muse Law Library University of Richmond School of Law Research Guide : Federal Case Law Introduction Case law is the law as evidenced by a written judicial opinion. It is distinguished from statutory or administrative law although it frequently interprets these types of law. A judicial opinion is the expressed reasoning for the conclusion in a certain case. This research guide discusses how to locate federal case law. Although the focus here is on federal cases, the principles utilized to locate federal case law are applicable for locating the case law of a particular state. Basics Publication of opinions — Judicial opinions are published in three stages. The first is in the form of a slip opinion issued and published by the court soon after the decision is handed down. The second stage of publication is known as advance sheets, a portion of opinions that are ultimately published in the same reporter volume. Advance sheets typically contain the volume and page numbers of the future reporter volume. The final stage of publication is the actual reporter volume. The reporter contains several advance sheets bound into a new volume of the respective reporter series. Published v. Unpublished opinions — Not all cases result in judicial opinions that are published. Published opinions are available both online and in hard copy in one of the various series of reporters. — With regard to the federal courts of appeals, only those opinions deemed to have ―general precedential value‖ are designated for publication by the court. As of January 1, 2001, some unpublished opinions of the federal courts of appeals can be located in the Federal Appendix.
