archived decisions

This section of our site chronicles the archived activity in the California and United States Supreme Court for the last 3 years.

The cases in these compendiums cover decided issues of interest to counsel concerning criminal, juvenile, dependency, and mental health law, as well as capturing cases and issues addressing relevant procedures, practices and ethics for lawyers.

If a case is recently decided (within the last 6 months), it will reside in the Recently Decided cases. After 6 months it will archive here.
