This App provides law students and practitioners with a handy, “on-the-go” quick reference to formatting citations for legal memoranda, legal briefs, and more.

The App is divided into 17 separate lessons or “cards,” each of which is devoted to a citation topic and each of which has examples illustrating the point made.

The App concludes with a quiz (and its answer key) for those who desire to test their citation form skills.

The App’s table of contents makes finding a pertinent rule or example fast and easy. Users can add their own notes to the cards to remind themselves of needed information or can tag their most frequently used cards for easy retrieval.
