How to Find All of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s Opinions in Westlaw

Posted on Posted in Lexis and Westlaw, National

With the passing of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg recently, we decided to offer a legal research tip since some readers may be interested in reading her opinions.

In Westlaw, go to US Supreme Court cases and run these searches as advanced searches:

  • For rulings by Justice Ginsberg:

               adv: JU(ginsburg) 

  • For cases where Justice Ginsburg concurred:

               adv: CON(ginsburg +s concurring)

  • For cases where Justice Ginsberg dissented:

               adv: DIS(ginsburg +s dissenting) 

Users could also string all three together as one search.  

Later this week, similar info will be posted for Lexis+.
