I am seeking someone to rephrase and clarify The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation (19th Ed.) so that a layperson can easily create a citation to a case or court/litigation document. The final document should be arranged by source type and offer instructions on how to create a citation. ## Deliverables I am looking for someone to interpret, paraphrase, clarify, and re-word rules in The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation (19th Ed.). This job involves writing something that clearly, concisely, unambiguously, and efficiently explains how to create citations to any court or litigation document filed in any jurisdiction (state, federal, foreign, or intergovernmental) and published, listed, or otherwise obtained from any source. This implicates Rules 10 (cases, generally), 20.3 (foreign cases), and 21.5 (international law cases), while taking bits and pieces from rules 14.3, 16, 18.2.2, 19, as well as any other "referenced" rule or table. The ideal document as one that: (1) lists every type of authority that falls within the scope of the Rule; (2) summarizes the required information necessary to render a citation to that authority; (3) instructs a layman on how to abbreviate that required information; and (4) instructs the user how to arrange the required information to create a citation to that type of authority. So, Rule 10 encompasses cases, briefs, transcripts, etc. Since Rule 10 does not account for foreign cases or those filed in intergovernmental tribunals (such as world court or U.N. hearings), Rules 20.3 and 21.5 are also implicated. Additionally, administrative hearings (bankruptcy proceedings) also fall into this topic, so pieces of Rule 14 are implicated. As an example of what I'm looking for, please flip to page 87 in the 19th edition. Assuming one wishes to cite to a published decision in a United States federal court, the information required is the full case name (broken up into two parties), the reporter information (volume number, reporter name, and first page of the case), the court (supreme court, court of appeals, district court, etc), the year the case was decided, prior and subsequent information, any parenthetical information, and parallel citations. Discussing EACH of these points is crucial, and this should be done for every "type" of authority that falls within the scope of "cases and court & litigation documents" -- published case decisions, briefs, court transcripts, etc. I would suggest going through the Bluebook and figuring out exactly how much work this will be for you -- quality is of the utmost importance. I don't necessarily care about grammar or spelling, but I want it to be complete. I don't want anything to be missing. Someone without a Bluebook should be able to read this document and know how to cite to anything (provided they have a copy of the tables -- I am not asking for you to incorporate the tables at all). On the topic of tables and other references, I do ask that you make sure to cite whatever you write from the bluebook. So, if you're talking about case names, you should say something like: "In cases for which no case name appears in the published decision, you must cite them as "Judgment of <date>" where date is in the format "Jan. 1, 2010." {R2.2.1}." I am ONLY looking for people with extensive experience with the Bluebook -- please do not respond if you've never heard of this citation guideline.
