Q. How do I locate a CLR (Commonwealth Law Report) case?

For example: Laurinda v Capalaba Park (1989) 166 CLR 623

(Note: A quick search of "CLR" on the Cardiff Index to Legal Abbreviations will tell you what the publication is. If there are many possible publications, thinking of the applicable jurisdiction, year and topic can help you narrow down your results.)

CLR stands for the Commonwealth Law Reports.

Launch the database, Westlaw.

Select "Australia Cases: Commonwealth Law Reports" from the drop-down list.

Enter (1989) 166 CLR 623 in the citation search box and click enter.

You will find your result.
