Case Law A-Z

Searching Cases

In order to find a specific case you may search by its citation, docket number, or party names.

Looking up a court decision by citation usually is the quickest and most accurate way to find a court decision.
In the United States and some other countries, the docket number search is a reliable and efficient method of finding a court decision. Sometimes, specially in non-US jurisdictions, no reporter citation has been attached to a court opinion. Then, a docket number search will allow you to find the slip case form.
You may also search or browse by party names. A party name search will also bring up slip opinions and unpublished court decisions.
