This dimension marks whether a landmark case's holding is still good law, has been narrowed or has been overturned. Wikipedia notes a leading decision can settle the law "by distinguishing a new principle that refines a prior principle," a process that can later happen again to the case itself. Browsing by current status separates cases still controlling today from those since overturned.
