editI really like the use of bullet points in the introductory paragraph to introduce the holding -- and I sub-indent the bullet points when possible:
- Eisner v. Macomber
- Pevsner_v._Commissioner
- Farid-Es-Sultaneh_v_Commissioner
- Commissioner_v._Duberstein
- Commissioner_v._Flowers
- Commissioner_v._Glenshaw_Glass_Co.
- Raytheon_v._Commissioner
- United_States_v._Drescher
- United_States_v._Davis
When describing the judge's reasoning, I like using bold text to introduce the paragraphs:
- Cottage Savings Association v. Commissioner
- Commissioner v. Kowalski
- Old_Colony_Trust_Co._v._Commissioner
- Adams_v._United_States
Similarly, when describing the judge's reasoning, I like to summarize a long quotation in a sentence or two, then indent the full quotation for students who want to see the primary source:
I like cases that start with a "case brief" header up top, followed by an "academic commentary" section at the way bottom (to encourage students to add insights from their law-school readings.)
- Haverly_v._United_States
- Helvering_v._Bruun a good start at an "academic commentary" section
I think we should add a "citations" section at the bottom, in case Wikipedia ever aspires to replace Westlaw/Lexis Nexis:
