Michele Triplett’s Fingerprint Dictionary

NEW!!
The Fourth Edition was published on March 23, 2025.
The web pages will be updated to include the newest definitions as time allows.

Most court cases appear under “State of v. ” or “United States v.__”. This is done
intentionally so that the user does not need to know if a case was called “State v.”,
“Commonwealth v.” or “People v.”.
