APA & Bluebook Legal Reference Quick Guide

The Bluebook

When citing a legal source such as a court case, bill, law, or administrative rule, you should first check the style manual for your assignment for guidance.  Some style manuals, such as APA, will provide some guidance, but then refer to another publication for specific sources, The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation.
