Digests are a compilation of caselaw summaries organized by topic. Because digests are compiled by legal editors, researchers can sometimes find cases under a specific digest topic that a database search may have missed. For more information about digests, see Kent C. Olson, Principles of Legal Research § 12.2 West Key-Number Digests (3rd ed. 2020).
Jenkins continues to receive updates to West's Pennsylvania Digest 2d, which includes state and federal cases decided since 1938. To find cases from before 1938, use Vale Pennsylvania Digest.
