FAQ: What is CalDisc?
Back to FAQs

CalDisc is a law library that consists of a set of four integrated CD-ROMs:

The first CD-ROM contains the full text of California 4th Series cases and California slip opinions (c. 1991 to present). In addition, this CD-ROM contains the full text of all 29 California Codes, California Constitution, California Rules of Court, Rules of Professional Conduct, and legislation from the most recent legislative session.

The second CD-ROM contains the full text of California 3d Series cases (c. 1969 to 1991).

The third CD-ROM contains the full text of California 2d Series cases (c. 1934 to 1969).

There are over 76,000 cases contained on the four discs. The content of the discs are identical to that of the California Official Reports except there are no case summaries and headnotes.
The advantages to having cases and codes on compact discs are as follows:

  • Use Keyword searches instead of Key Numbers to find relevant cases in just a matter of seconds.
  • You can go directly to the paragraphs that contain your keywords without use of head notes.
  • Copy and paste quotes directly to your documents.
  • Use case citation to find case history.
  • Save valuable time, library space, and money.

The text of the published cases are organized in reverse chronological order with Supreme Court cases preceding Appellate Court cases. Slip opinions are appended to the end of the infobase. Our proprietary software searches each paragraph of each case from the beginning to the end (including footnotes and appendices).

The text of the codes are organized by code title and by section.
