Order of signals - sustany/dvg GitHub Wiki
The order in which�citation sentences should be arranged when immediately following each other.� In formal legal writing, citation sentences should be arranged based on the signals that introduce them, in the following order of precedence:
- No signal
- E.g.,
- Accord
- See
- See also
- Cf.
- Compare with
- Contra
- But see
- But cf.
- See generally
All sources falling under the same signal should be put in a single citation sentence and separated by semicolons.� Thus, each signal should appear only once in a�given citation - at the start of its own citation sentence.�
See Order of�authorities (for the arrangement of sources within each signal).
