Checking Case Treatment with Shepard's

Using citators is important. You want to find out whether something has happened to your case on appeal or whether, years later, it was overruled by another case. And you also want to find how much it's been cited by other cases and how they've used it.

To get a handle on the features of Shepard's (the citator on Lexis), see Be confident in your cases with Shepard's. You can also view short videos:
