More on how this was screened

Several citations appear only in separate opinions, including dissents. Complete opinion text recovered for Unbelievable, Inc. v. National Labor Relations Board, Craft v. United States, and Grocery Manufacturers Ass'n v. Environmental Protection Agency resolved gaps in the initially supplied opinions. Two flagged citations belong to the same Florida Bankers Ass'n opinion; both were screened.

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.

452 later cases cite LaShawn A. v. Marion S. Barry, Jr.; 89 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.
