What you will be able to do

  1. Cite a regulation, code or case in office writing so a later reader can see which version of the law you read.
  2. Put each citation where your reader needs it: in the text for a lawyer, in a note for a client, and in full at the start of every memo part and every email.
  3. Keep a court's own label inside a citation, put the permission and weight questions in a separate status note, and record your checks.
