More on how this was screened

Many cited Castro to recount its overruling of Clouthier v. County of Contra Costa, Gibson v. County of Washoe, and other older Ninth Circuit decisions; that history concerns those older cases.

Every treatment on this page is written from the citing opinion itself, with a verbatim quote, never copied from a commercial citator. A citation flagged by our screen but not shown here was read and found not to weaken this case.

2,197 later cases cite Jonathon Castro v. County of Los Angeles; 680 of those citations sat close to treatment language and were flagged for reading, and all of them have been read. Citations that did not sit near treatment language were not flagged and were not read one by one, so a court that weakened this case without using any of that language would not appear here.
