Do you ever wonder if your citations to case law, to law journal articles, on-line materials, etc. in a legal brief are correct?
Times have changed so much since I read that little blue book in law school with instructions for correct citation. I've discovered a tremendous resource on the Cornell website--a guide to proper citation. It may be used online or, for $20, you may order a copy to download on your computer or to your Kindle.
