Legal Citations
When reading a law review or court ruling, there are going to be a lot of references to different statutes, laws, and legal precedent. When lawyers reference these things, they use a special kind of citation which we will call Legal Citations.
They act the same way as in-text citations in APA or MLA, but they look different and have different parts. This section will explain what the parts are, what they mean, and how to turn a Legal Citation into an APA Citation for your References page.
