Searching the NewsLog for Recent Case Law

by Roy, Christopher

 

Did you know that you can quickly find recent Connecticut Appellate and Supreme Court case law by searching our NewsLog? The search box is located in the upper-right corner of the blog. For example, let's say you wanted to research recent case law concerning a notice to quit in a summary process action. A search for notice to quit returns three results. Because only the primary issues are included in each NewsLog post, it becomes an efficient way to find case law without the noise of a full-text search. The current iteration of the NewsLog contains cases from July 2016 forward, although older cases for some subjects are included.

Keep in mind that you can browse to specific subjects and find case law that way as well. In fact, you can choose a subject and then do a search, limiting your possible results to posts tagged with that specific subject.
