LawCite

LawCite, funded by the Australian Research Council, and made available as part of the Free Access to Law Movement, is an international legal case and journal article citator.
It can be used to locate judgments (mainly from common law jurisdictions), and to see how these have been subsequently dealt with and commented upon. It is also possible to see where journal articles have been cited.
To date, LawCite has indexed over 3.5 million cases, articles and law reform documents and this will continue to grow over the course of the 3 year project.
