Gann Online Help: Search by Case Cite

First, enter the Volume Number in the first box.

Second, choose the Reporter from the center drop-down box.

Third, enter the Page Number in the third box.

Finally, click on the Search button to the right. Using the Enter key will return an error ("Your Search String is Empty.").

Or retrieve a prior search by clicking on the Get Last 10 Searches link at the top of the search box.

The results of the search will be presented in the left hand frame (or upper frame, if you've changed your frames position). First, you'll see the name of the case with any subsequent history. That is followed by a box setting out all Gann treatises and databases in which the case appears, indicating the number of "hits" in each database or treatise in the form of links allowing you to navigate to those citations.

Subscribers and non-subscribers alike can always see where every result of a search occurs throughout the entire Gann Library. If your particular search leads you to a treatise to which you're not subscribed, you'll be able to see the exact location of the hit in a familiar Table of Contents format. To then go further and read the section where the hit occurs, you'll have the opportunity to subscribe on the spot for instant access to that treatise.

When you click on a hits navigation link for a Gann Treatise, you will be presented with the hits in that treatise in context: exactly where they appear in the familiar Table of Contents format. That way, you can choose the hit most relevant to your research without wasting time looking at issues that are not important to you.

When you click on a hits navigation link for N.J. and N.J. Super. cases, you will be presented with a list of cases in which your search term appears. The cases are organized first by reporter (such as U.S., N.J., N.J. Super.) and, within each reporter, in reverse chronological order (newest to oldest). Next to each case name, you will see how many times the search term is repeated, so you can see at a glance which cases are most relevant to your research. Each case name is a link you can click to open the text of the case, and each hit within the case has links to take you to the next hit or back to the previous hit.
