This function is helpful when you are looking for a very specific document. The easiest way to look up a case is to use the Look Up A Legal Case widget on the Easy Search Form. Below, is another way!


  1. Click on the PowerSearch link on the General Tab
  2. Select your source. In the example above, New York Times is selected.
  3. After you select the source, the Add Sections box will appear below. Type your terms in the box. For the example above, the date term was "= 11/11/2006"
  4. Click the blue button to add this section and term set to your search. You may add as many sets to your search as you wish. Each time you click "Add to Search", the Power Search form will automatically add an "AND" between sets.
