Massachusetts Land Court Reporter

The Massachusetts Land Court, one of only two dedicated Land Courts in the country (the other being Hawaii), generally has jurisdiction to determine right, title, or interest in real property located in Massachusetts. In addition, the Court has jurisdiction over complaints to determine the validity of city or town zoning ordinances, appeals from local special-permit and variance decisions, foreclosure proceedings, and complaints for the confirmation and registration of land titles. A complete listing of Land Court subject-matter jurisdiction may be found at M.G.L. c. 185, sec. 1.

Published monthly since 1993, the Land Court Reporter (LCR) has become an indispensable resource for land-use professionals statewide. In addition to providing copies of all Land Court decisions, LCR includes detailed case-by-case subject-matter digests, cumulative subject-matter indices linked to over 400 subject-matter classifications, a cumulative index of cases cited, and insightful quarterly commentary by Richard J. Gallogly of Rackemann, Sawyer & Brewster.

Subscriptions to LCR are available for $425 per year. Municipal discounts are available for $185.00 per year. Back volumes are available at substantial discounts. To order a subscription, simply call us at (617) 879-3133 or (800) 637-6330 (Massachusetts only) or e-mail us at orderlcr@landlaw.com and we will enroll you immediately.
