PLEASE NOTE: None of the local newspapers are currently running standard court reports. If I knew of a website where you could go to get current Cape Cod court reports from Barnstable, Falmouth and Orleans courts, I would link to it, but unfortunately there is nowhere to go for Cape Cod court reports. Most of the news stories below mention court and should be related to recent court cases on Cape Cod.
