I'm surprised Delaware is even anywhere near the top. Notwithstanding corporate law, the number of cases handled annually by the listed states are at least one, perhaps two orders of magnitude higher than Delaware. New York and California, for example, have nearly 80 times as many lawyers as Delaware (https://lawschooltuitionbubble.wordpress.com/original-research-updated/lawyers-per-capita-by-state/ https://lawschooltuitionbubble.wordpress.com/original-resear...). Also consider the target audience. Corporate law litigants are more likely to have access to private databases. Criminal law precedent should be a focus here, and most every other state in the union is going to have more criminal law precedent than Delaware.
[edit: acknowledging DE is in the hopper.]
