Where you should go depends entirely upon what type of research you're doing. While the websites noted above have rudimentary search capabilities, to do serious research on issues decided by the Supreme Court, you'll find fee based services like Lexis/Nexis and Westlaw are superior, because of their advanced search and hyperlinking capabilities.

If you just want to search cases by year or by case name, the Supreme Court's site works well, and is free. Findlaw is also OK and has some search capabilities, but no hyperlinking of cases.

And, of course, there's always the old fashioned way: go to a law library and go to the official reports.

depends whether you want to research state supreme courts or federal supreme courts. For state supreme courts just go to your state government official website. (i.e. www.michigan.gov). If you want federal supreme courts cases your state site may have a link.
