Arizona Briefs Collection
The Law Library has a small collection of Arizona Supreme Court and Arizona Court of Appeals, Division One briefs in print and microfilm. Our briefs collection is incomplete and no longer updated.
Our collection of print briefs contains reported cases only. The volumes are arranged by court and Arizona Reports citation.
The microfilm reels are arranged by court, case type, and docket number. The docket number ranges printed on the film boxes may be incomplete. For example, the box may list #400-425, but only contain select briefs in that docket range and can also contain earlier cases that were not available for filming with the previous reel. The docket number ranges on the boxes are intended as guidelines rather than a complete listing of all cases on the film.
The catalog records linked below provide the case types and date ranges covered by our collection. For assistance in determining whether the Law Library has the briefs for a specific case, email Ask a Law Librarian or call the Circulation Desk at 480-965-6144. Please provide the docket number, date, and party names..
