Law Librarian Blog suggested a great paper topic: how many times has Spock been cited in judicial opinions? The question is based on a Wall Street Journal article which cites the most recent example. If this type of paper is up your alley, but you're not entirely sure how to aggregate all the cases (including unpublished opinions if you're so inclined), stop by the library for some suggestions. Because American Jurisprudence is good for telling you all the key cases regarding federal search and seizure law but not so good for Star Trek quotes.
