   Official reporting was now centralized in the Law Reporting Bureau under the State Reporter. The Bureau was charged by statute with publishing all the decisions of the Court of Appeals (New York Reports) and the Appellate Division (Appellate Division Reports), and any decision of the lower courts determined by the State Reporter to be worthy of reporting because of its usefulness as precedent or its importance as a matter of public interest (Miscellaneous Reports).
