Courts and sources
Each line is one court read from one source. Years are the span that source lists; “inferred” means taken from a description of the site, not from the site itself. A site that refused our automated check may still open in a browser.

Where else to look
- CourtListener: Lists 3 Indiana courts.
- Caselaw Access Project (Harvard): Holds published opinions from 1817 to 2019.

- public.courts.in.gov: Official court website.
- Justia: Also publishes opinions; we did not check it state by state.
Known gaps
- Only part of Indiana Supreme Court's website could be read in our check, so its years and text search are not fully measured.
- We found no search of opinion text on Indiana Supreme Court's website, only lists or lookup by name, number or date.
- 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 2019.
- Our survey lists no free statewide source of trial-court opinions for this state.
