Level Up Series: Advanced Cite-checking

This Cite-Checking seminar taught by Deborah Bouchoux, Esq. presupposes familiarity with core Bluebook principles and is intended to cover topics not typically covered in the Introduction to Cite-Checking seminar.

The seminar is two hours in length, and will cover the following:

• The first one-half hour will be a review and refresher of basic citation principles.

• During the next one-half hour, some new topics will be covered, including the use of parentheticals, preparing tables of authorities, and citing to court documents.

• During the second and final hour, attendees will work on some citation exercises and correct errors in a court brief. Attendees will then receive an answer key for the exercises and work together on cite-checking and correcting the court brief.
