OSCOLA subsequent citations

opacct
When subequent citations of statutes are implemented, it appears that the cross citation (eg. n 2) but not the specified section (eg. s 65) is shown. This issue seems peculiar to statute citations. Thank you.

    I'll look, but might take a little.

    The issue does not seem to present when using a 'bill', instead of a 'statute'.
    The issue is also present if the court is omitted from a case, but I only mention this if it may assist you in some way.

    Is there a way to block the creation of the subsequent citation notation 'n'? It is not strictly necessary in OSCOLA, apparently. Thank you.

    I just removed what I judged (in my XML ignorance) to be the subsequent citation section from the OSCOLA style using a text editor and it seems to be working fine now, less the 'n'. This seems to be OSCOLA compliant as per page 5 para 1.2.1 of the 4th ed.
