[blindLaw] Citations & Formatting of Legal Writing in Law School & Beyond

[Lauren Bishop]

Hello,
The online version of the blue book is amazing. Also legal citatation is easy once you get the hang of it. No one in your classes will know how to format the documents, so templates will be provided. You can request those in MS word format. If you use the command Jaws key plus f, you will hear the font and formatting of the text your cursor is over. I also asked to have someone look at my formatting to make sure nothing crazy happened. A waver of the formatting was offered for my classes, but formatting is essential, so I didn’t accept the accommodation.
