Basic Legal Research for University Law Related Classes - News Articles
News Articles -- Perhaps some news articles can provide clues to assist in your legal research. For example, it makes a difference whether a senator is "planning to introduce a bill," compared to a situation where the President "has just signed a bill into law." Likewise, if an article notes the specific court in which a case has been decided, that information can help you determine where you will go to check for the availability of the decision. Names of the parties or the name of the judge, or date of the decision can all be very helpful.
