Subject: US Supreme Court Corpus (130 million words)

 Those who work at the intersection of law and corpus linguistics (e.g.
http://lawcorpus.byu.edu/) might be interested in a new corpus that is
available from:

http://corpus.byu.edu/scotus/

It contains 130 million words in 32,000+ opinions from the US Supreme Court
from the 1790s to the current time, and the architecture and interface
provides all of the features as the other BYU corpora
(http://corpus.byu.edu/).

Best,
