Explanation:
Perhaps the context would explain that it refers to law reports...
This is the most likely, I think.

Other possibilities:
- Agricultural Land Reserve (Canada)
- Automated Legal Research
- Administrative License Revocation

En España sería, sin duda, \"informes\" mejor que \"reportes\". No se usa en absoluto \"reportes\", pero los ussos varían de un país a otro.
Por otra parte, para referirse a \"law reports\" se utiliza la expresión \"repertorios de jurisprudencia\" (véase, por ejemplo, Alcaraz Varó & Hughes,Diccionario de términos jurídicos, que aporta también \"compilación de dercho jurisprudencial\", \"libro de principios jurisprudenciales\"). Esto merecería consulta aparte, con contexto.
\"Norteamericano\" es, en primer lugar, según el DRAE, \"natural de América del Norte, que incluye a Canadá y todo o casi todo México, aunque es también sinónimo de \"estadounidense\", pero \"estadounidense\" es más preciso para referirse a los EE.UU.
Los estadounidenses se llaman a si mismos \"Americans\", y \"América\" a los EE.UU., pero es una denominación impropia, ya que identifica un país con un continente; puede crear confusión.
En realidad, \"America\", en el sentido en que ellos lo dicen, entiendo que es una abreviación de \"United States of America\", que resulta muy largo de decir, y de America, Americans. Todos lo entendemos pero no todos lo compartimos.
En la Facultad me enseñaron a traducir \"American\" (dicho en este sentido) como \"estadounidense\".
