Individual Exercise 1

Created Friday 17 February 2017

Consider the two cases given in our book; Keywell v. Weinstein, 33 F.3d 159 and Deason v. Metro, 474 NE2d 783. First, review them as given in your book, then
- Find these cases in Lexis and
- Find these cases in Google Scholar as "case law" (scholar.google.com, be sure to click "Case Law" on the side so you don't get results elsewhere.
- Find a copy through at least two other sources not mentioned above.

1) How exactly did you find each; was the search process particularly difficult; any quirks?

2) (this should be a longer answer) Compare and contrast "everything else," namely the headnotes/keynotes, summaries and keywords and such. Report your findings; you don't have to necessarily tackle each of the two cases individually, you may summarize your results "as a whole" per service. Comment on the differences.

4) Using information from the book, please provide a citation for the case (which, as you know, is unlikely to be in a report.
