Forecite California

"The objective of FORECITE is to update, supplement and augment CALJIC or CALCRIM to reflect late developments not yet considered by, or included in, CALJIC or CALCRIM. Hence, by using CALJIC or CALCRIM and FORECITE together more accurate, complete and up to date statements of the law will be obtained. While a vigilant attorney might become aware of new developments in the law by analyzing and indexing advance sheets, changes in statutory language, and briefing in pending appellate and supreme court cases, it is extremely time consuming for any single individual to monitor all of these sources. FORECITE, via its team of editors, continually studies these sources to provide timely access to the latest developments in the law. By using FORECITE, the busy practitioner can now quickly access the most current cases, the "hottest" issues and the latest developments in substantive criminal law and jury instructions."
