OSCOLA referencing

Hints

Mullin v Richards: Where parties are individuals, omit given names and initials

Mullin: Cite a case name in full the first time you mention it in the text or footnote. It may be shortened thereafter.

Hutchison LJ: The name of a Court of Appeal judge is abbreviated this way unless a peer.

... is not whether: Quotations longer than three lines should be indented both sides, without quotation marks.

(n 14): Refer to earlier footnotes using this method, rather than supra or op cit. You may use Ibid to refer to the immediately previous footnote.

1308: The quote was from page 1308.
