You can use Shepard's Citations in Nexis Uni to update citations for tax materials. However, specialized tax citators do a better job of tracking all of the IRS administrative pronouncements and covering the specialized citation formats.
To retrieve a Shepard's® report in Nexis Uni by citation once you have the correct citation for the case, do one of the following:
- Enter "shep:" in the search box, followed by your citation, then press ENTER or click the search button
- Enter just the citation name in the search box, then click the Shepard's Signal™ indicator next to the document name
- When you are in the full text of a case, you will see the Shepard's information in the far right column, with a link to Shepardize this document.
