In Lexis, what does searching "unannotated" or "text" on the U.S.C.S. do?

Searching "unannotated" or "text" on the U.S.C.S. specifically targets the text of each statute without including any annotations or additional commentary. This means that the search will yield results that consist solely of the actual statutory language, allowing users to focus on the precise wording and provisions of the statute they are interested in.

In contrast, searching for annotations or other forms of commentary would bring in case law and interpretations which, while useful, could distract from a straightforward understanding of the statutory text. Therefore, selecting the "unannotated" or "text" option is ideal for someone needing a clear and direct examination of the law itself.
