Notes

  • ^A The first volume of the United States Reports predates the creation of the Supreme Court and does not contain any of its decisions. It is designated volume one because the same reporter, Alexander J. Dallas, published volumes 1–4.
  • ^B Ernest Knaebel resigned as Reporter of Decisions in 1944, and the post was vacant for two years. When Walter Wyatt took office in 1946, he edited the volumes 322–325 with cases for the preceding years.
