Maroonbook

The Maroonbook is a system of legal citation that is intended to be simpler and more straightforward than the more widely used Bluebook.[1] It was developed at the University of Chicago and is the citation system for the University of Chicago Law Review. As a simplified and modernized citation method, it tends to be closer to the Oxford Standard for Citation of Legal Authorities in its conventions.

Conventions

The Maroonbook gives the following examples:[2]

(1) Case names
(2) Titles of periodical articles and articles in edited books
(3) Book and treatise titles
