............................................................................................................................. Description This Judicial Dictionary can be used to better understand various legal terms, various terms occurring in a paragraph of a judicial decision that has defined the term, and provides citations. Words compiled in this edition cover broad legal concepts as well as narrower, more obscure terms. Judicial Dictionary is a resource that is useful to consult a particular term. It is also a good place to find a quick and easy definition of a term; however, it may provide case citations that are helpful in research. Even though, this book provides more extensive references to case citations than cr dictionary, its references to case-law are sufficiently complete to serve as a substitute for other types of case-finding tools like digests. It can be useful if one needs a "dictionary-type" definition of a term to plug into a legal analysis. ............................................................................................................................. |
