I had to do this once and yes you need permission. I called the general
West Number and they connected me to someone in their legal department.
They required information such as the name of the class, the school,
etc.

Subject: Reporter copyright question
Hello all,
I should probably know the answer to this already but... I've
been
contacted by a teacher who wants to copy about 20 cases out of
various West
Reporters for a class of approximately 30 students. She is
wondering if she
needs to get copyright permission from West to do this. Does
she? And if
so, does anyone have any specific contact information for this
besides the
generic West phone number?
As always--thanks.
Lisa
