Westlaw Australia Tip - How to find cases which judicially consider a word or phrase

Last Published: November 20, 2023

You can quickly find cases where the judge considers the meaning of a word or phrase, using the Cases Advanced search template.

  1. From the homepage, select Cases and then click on the Advanced link to the right of the search bar.
  1. Scroll down to the Words and Phrases field and type your search terms. If you are looking for a phrase, use quotation marks around it to search for the phrase and not the individual words.
  1. On the results page, click on the phrase in each result to jump to the Words and Phrases Judicially Considered section in the case document.
