- [Caselaw Access Project (Harvard)](https://case.law/): Holds published opinions from 1866 to 2017.
- [Google Scholar](https://scholar.google.com/): Its help page says its case law covers state appellate and supreme courts since 1950.

- [Justia](https://law.justia.com/cases/): Also publishes opinions; we did not check it state by state.

## Known gaps

- Only part of Idaho Supreme Court's website could be read in our check, so its years and text search are not fully measured.
- We could not confirm that opinion text can be searched on Idaho Supreme Court's website.
- We did not find the earliest year of Idaho Supreme Court's opinions on its own website.
- Some of this state's court websites load their opinion lists with scripts. Our automated check could not read them, so their years and search are not measured. A person using a browser can.
- The Caselaw Access Project holds published opinions only through 2017.
- Our survey lists no free statewide source of trial-court opinions for this state.
