"Kentucky Legal Research is a comprehensive guide to finding and using Kentucky law. Written in clear language with a process-oriented approach, it can be used as a textbook for teaching first-year and advanced legal research courses in law school and for paralegal instruction. It is designed to make complex procedures accessible to readers. The first two chapters discuss the research process and the rudiments of legal analysis. Later chapters discuss the state constitution, researching judicial opinions in law reporters, statutory research, finding the legislative history of statutes, and administrative law. The book concludes with chapters on court rules, updating with citators, secondary sources, and online legal research. Appendices cover legal citation under Kentucky rules and customs, The Bluebook, and the ALWD Citation Manual. The third edition has been thoroughly revised to incorporate coverage of new databases and to discuss the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in Kentucky legal research"-- Provided by publisher.
