Chain of Appeals

Get a handle on the chain of appeals in your subject area or jurisdiction. Know where disputes originate and learn the names and structures of all courts and adjudicatory bodies related to your subject area. Zero in on a recent decision from the highest court in the chain, and you’ll gain easy access to relevant case cites, statutes and regulations.
