RESEARCHING STATE CASES IN DIGESTS
This table illustrates whether a more efficient research process is available in a regional or a state digest found in Biddle Law Library. The published cases of each state in the left column are found in the American Digest System (Century, Decennial, and General). When a regional digest ceases publication, Biddle makes every attempt to acquire all the state digests covered by that region.
