The Minnesota Subject Index Supreme Court is an online database maintained by the Minnesota Judicial Branch that allows users to search the opinions and orders of the Minnesota Supreme Court from 1858 to the present. The database contains more than 28,000 opinions and orders, including both majority and dissenting opinions, and can be searched by keyword, case name, citation, or subject. The Minnesota Subject Index Supreme Court contains five distinct types of documents: majority opinions, dissenting opinions, per curia opinions, memorandum opinions, and orders. Majority and dissenting opinions are written by individual justices on the Minnesota Supreme Court and provide insight into the reasoning and application of the law in each case. Per curia opinions are brief opinions written by the entire court and not by any single justice. Memorandum opinions are issued in cases with no majority opinion and provide a summary of the court’s reasoning. Finally, orders are rulings made by the Minnesota Supreme Court on motions, petitions, and other requests.
