TopicsWhat Is KeyCite?
What Is KeyCite?KeyCite provides history and citing references, if available, for every case in West’s National Reporter System, more than 1 million unpublished cases, selected administrative decisions, federal statutes and regulations, and state statutes. KeyCite also provides citing references from more than 600 law reviews, thousands of ALR annotations and Am Jur 2d articles, Couch on Insurance, Mertens’ Law of Federal Taxation, Norton Bankruptcy Law and Practice 2d, publications of The Rutter Group, Witkin’s California treatises, and Wright and Miller’s Federal Practice and Procedure. Direct history, which traces a case through the appellate process and includes both prior and subsequent history, is added to KeyCite within one to four hours of receipt of the opinion at West. History of statutes, which lists citations to pending bills and session laws and describes legislative changes affecting a section, is added to KeyCite as soon as the source documents are added to Westlaw.
