A big thank you to LexisNexis for providing the legislative tracking that has made Gavel to Gavel happen

Earlier this year I conducted a reader survey of the e-newsletter, including a box for people to ask me questions. One of the top questions people wanted to know was  “How does Gavel to Gavel receive information about what is going on in the states?”

Thanks to a generous agreement with LexisNexis, each Friday (since July 2006) I run automated searches through their Total Research System for all pieces of legislation active in the prior week that include the words judge, judicial/judiciary, court, or variations on the words. They have been exceptionally generous in the use of their system and I wanted to take the opportunity of the anniversary  to say: thanks.
