  • 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 Published v. Unpublished opinions — Not all cases result in judicial opinions that are published.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 As of January 1, 2001, some unpublished opinions of the federal courts of appeals can be located in the Federal Appendix.

Cases are published in rough chronological order in print volumes called “reporters.” Some reporters include cases decided by only a certain court, for example, the New York Court of Appeals. Other reporters include cases from courts in a specific geographic region, for example, the northeastern United States. Still other reporters publish only those cases that deal with a certain topic, such as bankruptcy, media law, or rules of civil and criminal procedure. Reporters are fundamental tools of legal research re - gardless of whether a researcher is using print or online sources because, typ - ically, case citations are keyed to print reporters even when found in online services. This chapter begins with an overview of court systems in New York and at the federal level.

  • California Style Manual
    CALIFORNIA STYLE MANUAL Fourth Edition A HANDBOOK OF LEGAL STYLE FOR CALIFORNIA COURTS AND LAWYERS By Edward W. Jessen Reporter of Decisions for the Supreme Court and Courts of Appeal .W4-23370-9 ©1942, 1961, 1977, 1986,2000 by the Supreme Court of California Page composition by Imagelnk, San Francisco Cover design by Side by Side Designs, San Francisco Editiorial preparation and manufacturing West Group, California's Official Legal Publisher FOREWORD For almost 60 years, the legal community of California has benefited from the publication of the California Style Manual. The manual provides a guide to standard legal style in the appellate courts, and benefits litigants and jurists alike by establishing a common stylistic base that permits read- ers to focus readily on substance rather than form. In the 14 years since publication of the third edition of the Style Manual, much has changed in the processes used for creating legal docu- ments. A personal computer on the desk is now the rule rather than the exception for most lawyers and judges. At the same time, the availability of diverse reference resources has expanded the ease and scope of research. This latest revision of the manual reflects and responds to many of the changes that the legal profession has experienced, while maintaining a steady hold on the practices that have served the courts and the profession so well. I extend my appreciation to the Reporter of Decisions and those who have assisted him in the task of revising this valuable reference tool. Ronald M. George Chief Justice of California iii SUPREME COURT APPROVAL To the Reporter of Decisions: Pursuant to the authority conferred on the Supreme Court of Cali- fornia by Government Code section 68902, the California Style Manual, Fourth Edition, as submitted to this court for review is approved and adopted as the official organ for the styles to be used in the publication of the Official Reports.
