Online Database of High Court Cases

The online version of the HCDB provides researchers with ability to search for cases on a limited subset of variables: case name, citation, term, decision date, issue area, and outcome. Each case includes the primary documents for the case, including the opinion, oral argument transcript(s), and where relevant, special leave transcripts or dispensations and lower court decision(s).
Use the search box to filter by any of the fields on this page (term, HCA citation, case name, etc) including partial matches. Clicking on a row will take you to a detail page for that case. For the full dataset, please download a copy of the database. For more information on these fields, please see the documentation.
