(the following legal precedents) are cited Explanation: in legalese this would be the equivalent term: cited ; citation Check the 14 occurrences of "cited" in this article and how it's used in context: https://www.law.cornell.edu/citation/2-200.htm § 2-200. How to Cite Judicial Opinions In the U.S. legal system, judicial opinions are probably the most frequently cited category of legal material. The articulated grounds of past judicial decisions are, in many instances, binding precedent for currently litigated matters. Under other circumstances, they are "persuasive" authority. In either event, if on point, they should be cited. In the context of legal citation, judicial opinions are commonly referred to as "cases" and organized collections of opinions are called "law reports" or "case reports." Most cited "cases" are opinions of appellate courts; however, trial court rulings on questions of law do on occasion produce decisions lawyers may wish to cite, despite their limited force as precedent. |
