Not really sure what you mean by this. In the legal world, the term "precedent" typically refers to case decisions published by appellate level courts. Precedent can be found in the books in which cases are published (I believe West's Pacific Reporter is the "official" case reporter for Kansas) and via a variety of online resources, including Google Scholar (although pay services like Lexis and Westlaw are still far superior to any free service). However, looking for precedent requires knowing what the legal issue is, and saying "precendents [sic] . . . for [a] person who [was] terminated . . . and [was] later re-hire[d]" doesn't tell us anything about any legal issue.
