I had a case in which the defense attorney cited an entire line of cases on the record in court; I was able to check the citations as I sat at the State’s table, and found that the primary case (and its progeny, to the extent that they were based on it) had been strongly questioned. Because of that, I was able to make a successful argument that those cases should not control the outcome in my particular case.

Shepard’s helps me most in determining that a case marked as ‘bad’ law is marked as such for a reason that is not on point for the matter I’m working on.
