Using case references for OSCOLA only versus using cases references for OSCOLA and Bluebook (or, what is the difference between the Simple Cases format and the full Cases format?
The simplest Cases format is to use only: ECJ Case Number Party Names Reporter| (Court) If you use only the fields above, and you find the citations have unexpected spaces, delete all unwanted fields in the Footnotes template of OSCOLA 2 (via Edit/Edit Output Styles). More simply, include the court in the Reporter field and delete that field in the footnotes template. The full Cases format in OSCOLA 2 includes the following fields (use this if you want your case reference to work in Bluebook style as well as OSCOLA): ECJ Case Number Party Names Neutral Citation or ECHR App No Reporter Reporter Volume Reporter Abbreviation First Page| (Court) If using the full Cases format, rather than putting the whole citation in the Reporter Field, put the volume number to the Volume Reporter field (in square brackets); the law report abbreviation in the Abbreviation field; the first page number in the First Page field; and complete the date of decision field.
