Description of fields

All fields are optional!

litigants

List of litigants, such as "Miranda v. Arizona". If a Wikipedia article using this exact string exists, a link will automatically be created. Alternately, if an article exists but another name is desired for display, a wikilink may be specified; i.e., "[[Case article|This v. That]]". Note: This should likely not be optional.

vol

Volume of the reporter.

reporter

The abbreviated term for whatever reporter is being referenced; i.e., "U.S." for the U.S. Supreme Court's "United States Reports".

opinion

The opinion number, often the page number for the case.

pinpoint

Identifies a specific part of a decision, typically by page or paragraph number.

court

The standard abbreviation for the court being cited (e.g. "3d Cir." or "M.D. Ala."; see here for other courts in the United States). In order for court to appear, date must be specified. Note: This field also should likely not be optional.

date

The year or date in which the court rendered its decision.

url

A web site or other online article with information on the case. For example, for a U.S. Supreme Court case, the URL to FindLaw is http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?navby=CASE&court=US&vol={{{vol}}}&page={{{page}}}

accessdate

The date that you viewed the website, not the date of the case.
