Why don't the links in CaseBase work?



If you click on the links in CaseBase you will sometimes get a message that says "This content is not available on your subscription. Please contact customer service for more information."




This is because we do not subscribe to the English cases via the LexisNexis platform, so links to the All England Reports, Appeal Cases etc don't work. But it is possible to get online access to these case via the Lexis.com platform.

To get online access to English cases follow these steps:

1. Go to the Subject Resources link on the library home page.
2. Go to Subject Resources for Law
3. Click on the link to Online Case Law.
4. Scroll down the list until you come to the law reports series you want.
5. Click on the link.
6. Enter the name of the case or the cite.

If you enter the name of the case, use the following format:
name(Arsenal Football Club and Reed)

If you enter the citation for the case, use the following format:
cite(2003 Ch 454)
