How often courts cite the case defining “direct injury”
Court decisions citing the opinion that defined “direct injury” — 789 in all, by decade. Counts are citations to the defining case as a whole, not verified uses of the term. The dip in the most recent years is a data-coverage gap, not a real trend — our corpus holds fewer opinions from the latest years.
