Where can I find Restatements, Uniform Acts, and Model Codes?

The American Law Institute (ALI) publishes Restatements of the Law, which summarize the general principles of common law in particular areas of the law. You can find Restatements in subscription-based databases.

  • Lexis+ (Browse>Sources>By Category>Secondary Sources>Restatements)
  • Westlaw (All Content>Secondary Sources>Restatements & Principles of the Law)

The Uniform Law Commission (ULC) drafts Uniform Acts, which are proposals for state legislation in particular areas of the law. You can find Uniform Acts on the Uniform Law Commission website.

You can find the Uniform Commercial Code on the Legal Information Institute website.
