The backlist

All opinions on the LII site which were handed down prior to 1 January 1997 were taken by us from the Hermes "back list" at Case Western. One might view that CWRU backlist as having a number of layers. At the inception of the Hermes project the Court was issuing opinions in ASCII and XyWrite 3 formats. It appears that Hermes at CWRU got off to a somewhat ragged start, as many of the early cases from 1990 are missing. Or it may be that a few test cases were sent, and then the site was inactive for a while by design. Either way, the missing-case list below heavily favors the period when Hermes was starting up.

A few files have been missed since, as you can see below. Other problems include some rather wild formatting of headers during the "XyWrite period", and other variations which confuse our HTMLizing software. In all cases, we're working to put corrected versions online.
