"New U.S. Supreme Court Web Site Has Added Functionality"

This post was written by staff: "The U.S. Supreme Court's website has gotten a facelift, along with some new features, including an interactive, color-coded argument calendar on the bottom of the front page and better search capabilities. There is also a new Case Citation Finder and docket files dating back to 2000. According to the Court, the Case Citation Finder: "may be used to retrieve the citation, in the form recommended by the Reporter of Decisions, for every signed, per curiam, or in-chambers opinion published (or soon to be published) in the United States Reports." It allows for Boolean operators (and - or), the use of quotation marks, and sorting by volume number or the name of the petititoner or respondent."
