The Supreme Court has ruled that separation on the basis of race is unconstitutional and the principle known as âseparate but equalâ is inherently unequal. Brown v. Bd. of Educ. of Topeka, 347 U.S. 483, 495 (1954).
The key difference between citations within your text and separate citation sentences is abbreviation: only abbreviate the words in Rule 10.2.1 in textual citations but abbreviate all possible words according to T6 and T10 in a citation sentence. The reason for this difference mostly lies in aesthetics and the flow of your legal writing. Citations can be distracting to a reader and the goal of not abbreviating a citation within the text of a sentence is to stream the citation into the flow of the sentence as seamlessly as possible. Placing a citation within a sentence disrupts the flow to some extent and abbreviations would further disrupt it. Abbreviations in the citation sentence do not have this effect because a citation sentence is used primarily as a directional signal to the cited authority.
Case Reporters: Rules B10.1.2 & R10.3
The Reporter information of a case citation tells the reader where to go to find the case. Remember, the general format is V(olume) <Reporter> Pa(ge), Pi(ncite). The key to citing to a Reporter is to know which Reporter to cite, since most cases can be found in multiple Reporters. The answer is found in Table T1.3. Table T1.3 indicates which reporters you should cite for the decisions of state courts. For example:
