Questions

Does it show which High Courts cited a case?

The citator is being extended to the High Court judgments as they are added. Each entry shows its court.

Does Misaal say a case was overruled?

No. It shows you the later sentence that uses a word like "overruled" so you can read it and decide.

How does Misaal find citing judgments?

It looks for the case's name in later judgments. A sentence that only lists a case among others is marked as such.
