Administrative Legal Research IntroductionNeal Axton
Administrative Legal Research Presentation given to Advanced Legal Research Class at William Mitchell College of Law in St. Paul, Minnesota on September 13, 2013 by Neal R. Axton, JD, MLIS.
Civil law is the body of laws that govern private and non-criminal legal matters. It is a codified system based on Roman law with detailed codes organizing the laws. More than 80 countries operate under a civil law system including Germany, France, Japan, and Russia. Judges in a civil law system have less flexibility than common law as they must rely on and apply the existing legal codes rather than interpret laws or precedents.
The United States legal system is based on the U.S. Constitution and divided into three branches of government at both the federal and state levels. It includes multiple sources of law from constitutions, statutes, regulations, and case law. The court system is hierarchical with trial courts, intermediate appellate courts, and highest appellate courts. A case typically progresses from trial court through the appellate process. Precedent from higher courts is mandatory authority that lower courts must follow, while decisions from other jurisdictions or secondary sources are persuasive but not binding.
A legal case involves a dispute between opposing parties that is resolved through a legal process like a court. There are different types of legal cases, including civil cases (disputes between private individuals/organizations), family cases, and criminal cases (where the government prosecutes individuals for crimes). Legal cases establish precedents through case law as higher courts issue rulings that provide guidance in similar future cases. The document provides examples of legal cases from the UK and US and resources for finding case law summaries and court rulings.

1) Cases are written opinions issued by appellate courts that can range from a few sentences to hundreds of pages long. Students will read edited case excerpts in textbooks.
2) Lexis and Westlaw are commercial legal research services that law students can use for free. They provide access to cases, statutes, law reviews, and other materials.
3) Statutes are laws passed by legislative bodies that are available in print and online for all U.S. states and federal legislation. A statute progresses from a bill through various published iterations.
Law is a system of rules that regulate a society and are enforced through penalties. Sources of law include constitutions and religious texts. The US legal system protects citizens and helps resolve disputes. Key events in legal history include the Code of Hammurabi, Magna Carta, and Justinian's codification of Roman law into 50 books. Civil law governs private relations while criminal law punishes crimes. There are many career paths in law including attorneys, judges, law enforcement, and legal compliance roles.

Linguistic processing techniques like morphological analysis and use of ontologies can improve recall for document characterization in legal discovery by expanding search queries. Semantic analysis of documents and queries can improve precision of searches by returning only documents that precisely match the intended relationships between entities. Linguistic processing can also aid redaction of sensitive information by better detecting entities and relations. While more computationally intensive than keyword searches, these techniques can scale to large document collections through two-stage processing and creation of semantically indexed resources.
This document is a complaint filed by Oracle Corporation, Oracle USA, Inc., and Oracle International Corporation against SAP AG, SAP America, Inc., TomorrowNow, Inc., and unnamed defendants.

Libraries And Legal Research By Lance M Werner Libraries Andlegalwebsite
This document summarizes electronic resources for researching tax law as it relates to charitable nonprofits. It begins with broad resources like Google and FindLaw, then discusses narrower federal resources from the IRS website including forms, publications, and case law. Specific Michigan resources are also outlined, such as the Department of Treasury website containing state tax information for nonprofits. The document concludes that these free online resources provide a basic toolkit for nonprofit tax law research, and legal librarians can offer additional guidance.
Introduction To The Symposium On Legal Externships 2 Learning ...legalwebsite
This document introduces a symposium on legal externships that took place in 2003. It summarizes six papers presented at the symposium that were published in the Clinical Law Review. The papers address topics like ethics issues in externships, evaluating student professional development, training field supervisors and students, and embracing civic engagement in clinical programs. Externship programs have grown substantially and now exist at nearly every law school.
Information Inflation Can The Legal System Adaptlegalwebsite
This document discusses how information has undergone a massive increase or "inflation" in recent years due to technological advances like digitization, real-time computing, and the internet. This "information inflation" has stressed the legal system by making it nearly impossible for lawyers to search through and manage all available information, especially in litigation. The document suggests lawyers will need to change how they collaborate, use new search technologies, innovate rules around inadvertent disclosure, and embrace new approaches to managing information.
Court Of Appeals Upholds Gander Mountain Legal Victorylegalwebsite
The three judge panel unanimously upheld Gander Mountain's legal victory against their rival Cabela's. The original judgment granted Gander Mountain's motion for summary judgment, denied Cabela's motion, and dismissed Cabela's counterclaims. The ruling allows Gander Mountain to use its trademarks in direct marketing to consumers. Gander Mountain's CEO praised the decision that will allow them to grow direct business sales through catalogs and the internet.

Activating Legal Protections For Archaeological Remainslegalwebsite
This document discusses predictive risk factors for negative outcomes following abortion and the implications for screening and informed consent. It notes that while research on abortion's effects has limitations, it has reliably identified risk factors that predict higher risks of adverse reactions for some women. The failure to adequately screen for these known risk factors means women are not fully informed of risks specific to their situation and may experience avoidable negative consequences as a result. Improved screening could help reduce abortion rates among high-risk women and better serve women's health needs.
The Future Of Civil Legal Aid In The United Stateslegalwebsite
This document discusses the history and current state of civil legal aid in the United States. It outlines how legal aid began in the late 19th century and expanded in the 1960s through federal programs. While funding has increased overall, the system remains underfunded compared to other developed nations. The system now includes LSC-funded programs alongside many non-LSC state and local programs, as well as pro bono efforts. States are working to better integrate these resources into comprehensive statewide systems to improve access to justice. However, more funding is still needed to meet the legal needs of low-income Americans.
The Legal Rdf Ontology A Generic Model For Legal Documentslegalwebsite
1. The Legal-RDF ontology models the layout, content, and metadata of legal documents using directed acyclic graphs (DAGs).
2. Core classes include DAGNode and DAGModel, which represent nodes and models in a DAG. All classes derive from CoreResource, allowing Dublin Core metadata to be associated with any resource.
3. The ontology distinguishes between predicate verbs and nouns to provide an intuitive vocabulary for modeling statements. It categorizes classes based on elements of a dramatic production, such as actors, roles, and scenes.
Summary Of The Report Of The Senate Legal And Constitutionallegalwebsite
The Senate Legal and Constitutional Committee report summarized concerns about the Exposure Draft of Australia's Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Bill 2005. The report noted that many submissions argued the consultation period was too short and that the draft rules were not released in time for consideration. Additionally, submissions expressed that the Bill needed a more genuine risk-based approach consistent with international standards. The Committee agreed more consultation was needed and encouraged utilizing industry expertise to develop risk-based measures and ensure consensus on applying a risk-based approach.

This document lists and describes 10 essential free online legal resources. These resources cover a wide range of topics from federal legislation and regulations to case law, legal blogs, municipal codes, and scholarly articles. Some of the key resources mentioned include GPO Access for browsing federal statutes and regulations, Thomas for tracing the legislative history of bills, Findlaw for codes and court decisions, Google Books and Scholar for legal texts, and Martindale for attorney profiles. The resources provide users access to primary legal materials without cost.
The document discusses four projects from 2003-2006 that explored using information and communication technologies (ICT) to improve judicial services. It summarizes each project: [1] Austria focused on automating exchanges between lawyers and courts; [2] Finland emphasized accessibility, user-friendliness, and empowering citizens; [3] Italy focused on security, privacy and automating transactions for professionals; [4] the UK and Wales aimed to reduce costs by bypassing legal representation. The research examined how ICT interacts with institutions and can trigger healthy or unhealthy institutional dynamics during development of e-services.
The document discusses regulation and competition in the US legal services industry. It notes that each state separately licenses attorneys, and historically this was to ensure attorneys know the relevant state laws. It then summarizes various restrictions states have placed on attorney advertising, such as limiting comparisons to other lawyers, testimonials, or depictions in ads. The document argues that overly broad restrictions can inhibit competition and limit consumer choice, and that advertising generally benefits consumers by providing information and lowering prices. It also discusses debates around letting non-lawyers provide some legal services, noting this could lower costs but states aim to ensure only lawyers provide services requiring legal expertise.
