As of April 4, 2005, the Clerk of Supreme Court's office has changed to a new case management system. As part of this change, the docket number format for Supreme Court and Court Appeals cases has changed. The new docket format contains the year, followed by the letters AP (appeals) and the case number. For example, docket number 99-1234 will now be displayed as 1999AP001234.
When using the search below, if Javascript is enabled on your machine, the system will fill in the first two digits of the year and any leading zeros in the case number. For example, if searching for the old docket number, 99-2446, you can retrieve the opinion by typing 99AP2446.
