New York Official Reports

Operations

Court decisions are released. Electronic copies are sent to the Law Reporting Bureau by the courts.

The LRB assigns slip opinion numbers to each decision and converts the decisions for publication in the New York Slip Opinion Service on the LRB's website.

LRB editors verify citations, quotations, and factual references. Editors also prepare headnotes and summaries for each opinion. Exacting keyboarding and proofreading standards ensure the highest accuracy. Edited decisions are published in the New York Official Reports Bound Volumes and weekly Advance Sheets.

The Official Reports are published online with a commercial vendor and on the LRB's website.
