More Unpublished Opinions Available on www.lexis.com

Your access to U.S. case law has expanded. As a result of the E-Government Act of 2002, U.S. Courts are now releasing all written court opinions issued from April 16, 2005, in electronic, text-searchable format.

LexisNexis has added this case law. Of course, providing you critical case-law information has always been a top LexisNexis priority. From the infancy of online legal research decades ago, LexisNexis has been the only major online case-law publisher to seek out unpublished cases requested by subscribers.

Based on our projections, LexisNexis will eventually add more than 40,000 unpublished federal opinions to the LexisNexis 2006 unpublished case total. That will bring 2006 U.S. District cases at www.lexis.com to more than 70,000 cases. And as this previously unpublished case law is incorporated into www.lexis.com, Shepard’s^® editors will analyze and provide a full range of editorial treatment.

These cases are available in the following sources:

• Federal & State Cases, Combined
• Federal Court Cases, Combined
• U.S. District Court Cases, Combined
• Any other files where Federal District Cases appear

These files will contain the most comprehensive collection of all of our published and unpublished opinions—by far. To illustrate the point, from June 1 through June 19, there were 2,936 published and unpublished cases added in the largest group file on LexisNexis while only 1,919 in a similar file were added from our primary competitor. Of course, these cases will be current and will include our exclusive Shepard’s treatment analysis and signals.
