Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on the United States Reports, 1899, Vol. 1: A Brief Chronological Digest of All Points Determined in the Decisions of the Supreme Court, With Notes Showing the Influence, Following and Present Authority of Each Case, as Disclosed by the Citations, Comprising All Citing Cases in That Court The many novel features of this publication justify a somewhat detailed statement of its scope and the method of its preparation. Broadly speaking, it consists of two classes of matter first, chronologically arranged syllabi of all points of law determined in the Supreme Court decisions; and second, notes appended to such syllabi, based upon and collecting all the subsequent citing cases pertaining thereto. These citation notes are prepared by the editors from complete numerical tables of citations which disclose as to each case all the subsequent cases in which it has been cited in the Supreme Court, the intermediate and inferior Federal courts, and the courts of last resort of all the States of the Union. Proceeding upon the theory that the profession wants some thing more than bald, unclassified numerical tables of cita tions, the notes aim to present complete citation information respecting each case in the most orderly and available form; and to that end the citing cases are so classified and dis cussed as to show the points to which they cite, their nature, their application of the cited principle, and their general efl'ect.
