Search Case Name

Enter Case Name: (please follow guidelines set out below)

Guidlines:

1. You need not enter the entire case name. Try using a key word or words, e.g., Good News, instead of Good News Club v Milford Central School. The case names are not case sensitive and you need not enter capital letters. For example, you may enter, good news
2. Omit all punctuation. Never use a period, comma, apostrophe, colon, semicolon, or quotation mark.
3. Do not use a hyphen, but substitute a space. For example enter Simmons Harris, not Simmons-Harris, enter Rent A Car, not Rent-A-Car.
4. Except as noted afterwards, do not abbreviate words; always spell them out in full. Enter Saint, Department, and New York; do not abbreviate St, Dept and NY. When Inc Co and Corp appear at the end of a party's name, they should be omitted from the search terms. When a word such as Corporation is not the last word in a party's name, spell it out in full.
5. You must substitute the following abbreviations or terms.
       ACLU = American Civil Liberties Union
       CIR = Commissioner of Internal Revenue
       DOC = Department of Corrections
       EEOC = Equal Employment Opportunities Commission (or) U.S. Equal Employment Opportunities Commission
       In re = Matter of
       INS = Immigration and Naturalization Service
       People = People of the State of. While you should simply enter People, and not the term People of the State of, you
              must enter People ex rel as in People ex rel Sarkis. Of course it would be best to simply enter Sarkis
       YMCA or YMWA = Young Men's Christian Association or Young Women's Chirstian Association
6. Always spell out United States. Do not add the words “of America.” Never use the abbreviations US or USA.
