THE MOST RECENT SUMMARIES ORGANIZED BY CATEGORY

To browse the most recent decision-summaries in a particular legal category use the Search Panel at the top of the Latest Posts section on the Home Page and on the right side of every other website page. Choose the category from the drop-down menu that appears when you click on the first line of the Search Panel (“All Categories”) and click on “Search.” The search results appear chronologically, most recent first.

Or simply click on the category as it is listed in the Footer at the bottom of every page of the website.

CASE-LAW DATABASE SEARCHES ON THIS SITE ARE EASY:

PICK A CATEGORY IN THE DROP-DOWN MENU OF THE SEARCH PANEL ABOVE;

CHOOSE ONE OR TWO STRONG WORDS OR A STRONG PHRASE YOU ARE FAIRLY SURE WILL BE IN THE DECISIONS YOU ARE LOOKING FOR;

PUT THE KEYWORD(S) OR PHRASE IN QUOTES IN THE “KEYWORDS” LINE OF THE SEARCH PANEL AND CLICK ON “SEARCH”;

DO ADDITIONAL SEARCHES WITH OTHER STRONG WORDS (REVEALED BY THE SUMMARIES FOUND IN THE INITIAL SEARCH) TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE FOUND EVERYTHING.

FOR EXAMPLE:

A Student Was Assaulted in School, Is the School Liable?

Click On “Education-School Law” in the Drop-Down Menu;

A Single Search for the Keyword “Assault” Will Pick Up Most of the Cases;

Searches for Other Keywords May Find More Cases, Words Like “Attack” “Bullied” “Punch” “Fight” “Shove” “Push” “Harass” “Gym” “Recess” etc.;

Searches for Such Simple Words Will Work Because Only the “Education-School Law” Category Is Searched. A Search for “Harass” or “Assault” or “Fight” in the “Criminal Law” Category, for example, Will Yield Completely Different Results;

By Doing Several Searches, Each with Different Strong Words or Phrases, You Will Ensure Completeness.

For More Search Tips Go to the “Streamlined Research” Page (Top Menu).
