Style request - LJIL - Leiden Journal of International Law
Dear all, I post this here as I need help with a style which is the style of the Leiden Journal of International Law (LJIL) one of Europe's leading law journals (zotero nearly completely law-journal styles so far and I hope this contribution could also make way for more styles from the legal sphere and the humanities as we are duly underrepresented until now). Law journal style includes some specific elements such as cases, U.N. Documents, thus I can unfortunately not say which (already) existing style is the closest. However, one of my friends did a first draft which I will add in the follow-up post as this post would be otherwise too long. It should hopefully help you a lot. Please see also my previous post : http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/15717/style-request-leiden-journal-of-international-law/

THANK YOU VERY MUCH for you time and consideration, it is truly appreciated:
I tried to post it directly, but the forum reformatted it somehow so that it was not visible...
It seems like this page has been inactive for a while, but I'm going to try it anyway. I would like to write my phd in the Leiden Journal Style while using Zotero, therfore I was wondering if anyone knows more about a finalized version of the .csl for this style.
I would very much apreciate it.
