  • Use the  keyword index, phrase indexes, indexes for court name and trial date, and many other indexes.

  • The CD is updated twice a year
  • The back of the CD cover sheet (located inside the plastic CD box) indicates the dates of coverage, and lists most recent issue numbers of reporters indexed. Currently, the database includes records for almost 375,000 legal articles and 34,000 cases.
