References

During the workshop we talked about referencing case-law. We discussed this with your course coordinator that said the for legal sources, such as case law, they normally use OSCOLA. However the most important thing was that you use one system and are consistent. Below are some guides on how to use OSCOLA referencing to legal sources.
