OSCOLA - Help desperately needed
I have been using OSCOLA all the way through my PhD and I'm getting close to the end so I want to try and resolve the issues I have with my style format before then end. Up to now I have just worked around the issues.
I have fixed some but I just can't sort out the rest so I thought I would ask the community. I'll just ask for help with the biggest issue.
1. The Tail: Under the OSCOLA style, I need to have the court and year of judgment as the very last part of the citation. Here is what I need to achieve:
Reed v Wiser 555 F 2d 1079, 1089 (2nd Cir 1978).
What I have been doing is using the suffix field to enter the "(2nd Cir 1978)" but I would ideally like to be able to amend my style so I could use the "court" field. However, if I use the "court" field I end up with the following:
Reed v Wiser 555 F 2d 1079 (2nd Cir 1978) 1089.
It's only a small thing but I just can't fix it.
Thank you :)
