See below for guidance on filtering your search results to specific jurisdictions. To learn how to save such selections, visit this page.
Filtering Prior to Search
You can filter by jurisdiction before your initial search by clicking on the “All State & Federal” button at the end of the search bar:
Then, check the box(es) next to the jurisdiction(s) you want to focus on. In this example, we have chosen all California state courts, the 9th Circuit, and the U. S. Supreme Court.
Note: By default, Casetext will automatically save your jurisdiction selection and apply it to future sessions. If you do not want a jurisdiction selection to stay with you, uncheck the "Remember Selection" box.
When you’ve selected the jurisdiction(s) you want to focus on, click on the Apply Jurisdictions button in the lower right corner.
Selection Shortcuts
