| In opening
one of the hits, Davis v. Beason, 133 U.S. 333, you note that there
are "Core Terms" and "Core Concepts" sections at the beginning of the case.
"Core Concepts" may be hidden with a link to "View Core Concepts." In
addition, these document segments will not appear if you have deselected them
in either the "Options" or "Custom View" settings.
You start reading the "Core Concepts" entries, which function like Westlaw headnotes. You decide you like the second entry and decide to research other case law with this headnote. |
