Further Information on Cases

Officers are encouraged to sign up for the Legal & Liability Risk

Management Institute’s weekly, electronic briefing at www.llrmi.com.

The briefing regularly provides case updates on law enforcement

topics and is a free service to law enforcement officers. All articles

are archived and searchable.

Officers using this text are also encouraged to read the cases on

which the principles in this manual are based. Cases can be found

by using free internet databases such as www.findlaw.com. By

entering the case name or case citation into the database search

engine, officers will be able to locate and download the entire case

for a more extensive review. A search of the database will also

provide additional cases that apply the same legal principles

enunciated in these cases. The United States Supreme Court as

well as many of the lower courts also maintain written decisions on

their websites.
