Opinions: state publication, 1915-1941.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122507433

The Attorney General furnishes written opinions on questions of law to state departments and agencies, legislators, and local government officials. The opinions do not have the force of law but serve as a back-up or support for the actions of officials. These opinions are bound in quarterly, bimonthly, or monthly volumes, and the letters are arranged in chronological order. They are carbon copies. The formal opinions are also published in the Quarterly Reports from 1935 until the present. Opinions may also be found in the Biennial Reports of the Attorney General from 1896 to 1938. The series contains compiled indexes of the opinions which include the office editions, Biennial Reports, and Quarterly Reports. Cumulative indexes in various formats from about 1926 to 1978 were prepared by the Department of Examiners of Public Accounts.
