	Who determines “correct” citation
		The ALWD Citation Manual is primarily the work of Darby Dickerson, Dean of Stetson Law School and the nation’s leading authority on legal citation, with significant contributions from many members of the Association of Legal Writing Directors (“ALWD”), a nationwide organization of professional legal writing professors.
		The ALWD Citation Manual was prepared in part as a response to the frequent and puzzling changes in the Bluebook and the difficulty legal writing professors encountered in teaching first-year law students citation skills from the Bluebook.
		Bluebook in their offices (because that was the citation manual they used in law school), there is no doubt that the professional approach to citation makes it the lawyers' responsibility is to cite according to local citation practice.

		Thus, following the citation rules in either the ALWD Manual or The Bluebook, particularly the rules on when and where to place citations, how and when to use signals, and how to properly quote authority, will help you appropriately attribute words and ideas in any document you write during your legal career.
		The conventions of legal citation provide the writer with a unique system of shorthand—the signal—for conveying to the reader not only the source of a word, thought, or idea, but also the kind of support the source provides for the word thought or idea.

	Article: Bye-Bye Bluebook
		Legal citation is typically taught in first-year legal-writing courses and is often a frustrating experience for students and professors alike.
		Toward that end, ALWD will invite each law school to send deans and representative faculty to discuss with ALWD members new ways of thinking about the law-school curriculum so that the teaching of doctrine and skills are integrated in all courses.
		She is a founding member of ALWD, currently serving as a member of the Board of Directors, and a member of the Legal Writing Institute.

	Meet ALWD: The New Citation Manual
		The members of ALWD were frustrated by having to teach citation out of The Bluebook, tired of the pointless and confusing changes in each edition of The Bluebook, and annoyed at being ignored in their efforts to get The Bluebook editors to explain or fix the changes in the see signal.
		Thus the ALWD Manual was to be a restatement with modest refinements, not a new system of citation.2 ALWD selected Darby Dickerson, director of legal writing at Stetson University and a noted expert on legal citation, to draft the manual.
		The ALWD Manual has changed the citation forms for non-consecutively paginated journals (magazines) and newspapers so that the forms are consistent with the citations forms for paginated journals (scholarly publications).

	ALWD Citation Manual
		The ALWD Citation Manual is a book and a widely used legal citation system for the United States compiled by the Association of Legal Writing Directors.
		Citations in the two formats are roughly similar.
		Bluebook citations in law review articles use very different type styles from those in court documents, while ALWD citations use identical type styles regardless of the document in which they are used.

	LegalCitation, Citation structure and legal citation style guides.
		Citations, whether they are prepared for legal documents or scholarly works, must follow certain rules of structure.
		For example: we can deduce that the first citation is for a book, from the print attributes: titles of significant works or collections, such as treatises, books, monographs, journal series and the like, are accented in citations with italics or underscoring, and the year of publication, in legal citations, is usually presented in parentheses.
		Citations of articles in periodicals and cases contain the same sequence of a volume number, journal or reporter abbreviation, page and year.

	Stetson Law -- Press Release:
		The manual has been adopted by professors at more than 100 law schools, 75 paralegal programs and at several law journals throughout the country.
		The manual is the most popular law school book in the history of Aspen Publishers.
		The most recent organization to adopt the ALWD Citation Manual was the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, which amended its local rules as of January 2003 to allow use of the ALWD Citation Manual.

	Finding the Law at the UNT Libraries and on the Internet: Read a Legal Citation: Test Your Knowledge (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-09)
		This manual was developed as a teaching tool by the Association of Legal Writing Directors (ALWD—pronounced “all-wid” or “all-wood”), a non-profit professional association of directors and former directors of legal research, writing, analysis, and advocacy programs from law schools throughout the United States, Canada and Australia.
		While court-mandated citation rules officially apply only to documents filed with the specified courts (such as briefs and memoranda), they often also have an influence on how legal materials are cited in other documents (such as office memoranda) produced by legal practitioners in the state.
		The AALL developed a case citation format that is similar to the ABA style, and they have gone even further by developing a Universal Citation Guide.

		Citation examples are noted with a heading color change and sections of each main citation are marked by brackets and color.
		Indeed, with a more user-friendly citation manual available, these new attorneys should spend less time on citation, leaving more time to focus on what really matters in legal drafting, the message the document is meant to convey and the purpose for that document.
		The ALWD Manual is a required text in the first-year legal research and writing programs at both the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Law and the University of Missouri-Columbia School of Law.

		Recently, the Association of Legal Writing Directors (ALWD), an organization of more than 200 members representing approximately 150 law schools, undertook the ambitious project of developing and publishing a new legal citation manual.
		In early 2000 the years of work came to fruition when the ALWD Citation Manual was published by Aspen Law & Business.
		Bluebook and ALWD citation style are very similar*, dealing with the same types of resource works.

		While I agree in principle that a citation book should be readable and easy to use, I find ALWD to be decidedly useless in the real practice of law.
		There are two citation manuals for lawyers: Bluebook, which has been around for several years and is compiled by the Harvard Law Review, and ALWD, which was recently developed by the Association of Legal Writing Directors.
		ALWD and Bluebook are identical in many respects, but finding citation rules in ALWD is more intuitive.

	Legalwriting.net: ALWD Manual is about hierarchy?
		This Comment argues that the attempt by legal writing professors to wrest control of legal citation from law students is a blatant expression of the most obvious form of hierarchical control in legal education.
		So one way to spin the ALWD Manual would be as less-powerful law schools fighting against the more powerful law schools whose students publish the Bluebook--Columbia, Harvard, Penn, and Yale.
		One way to spin the ALWD Manual would be as an effort to create a better product that is more useful to the people who have to use it and teach from it.

	[No title]
		The ALWD Citation Manual tells us that we must cite only to AP.2d.@ A citation to P.2d alone would create ambiguity about the name of the court, because the Pacific Second includes court opinions from a variety of states as well as from the Oklahoma Supreme Court.
		A citation usually includes the author=s full name, the article=s full title, the periodical=s volume number, the name of the periodical properly abbreviated (see Appendix 5), the number of the first page of the article, and the year of the publication.
		The citation to a consecutively paginated periodical is the same as the citation to a nonconsecutively paginated periodical, except that in the case of a periodical that is not consecutively paginated, you must include the exact date of the volume you are citing and not just the year.

	Basic Legal Citation: § 1-100 (2005)
		This introduction to legal citation is focused on the forms of citation used in professional practice rather than those used in journal publication.
		Because of these changes, citations you find in legal documents published in prior years, although they may have been totally conformed to citation standards at the time of writing, may need reformatting to comply with current ones.
		Since both The Bluebook and the ALWD Citation Manual embrace the full range of journal writing, they furnish guidance on how to cite all manner of references little used in practitioner writing, including, in the case of The Bluebook, a variety of foreign law materials and historic references.

	KiMformation : Pulling needles out of haystacks . . .
		An e-mail this week from my sister* about The ALWD Citation Manual made me realize that perhaps more lawyers than I previously thought haven't added this handy citation reference to their libraries.
		It was first published by the Association of Legal Writing Directors in February 2000, "designed as a 'restatement of citation'" and to "replace" the Bluebook.
		I just learned that the ALWD CM's second edition came out in December 2002 (I guess I should have read that e-mail from Aspen Publishers, after all, huh?).
