General Rules of Usage
T. Order of Citation
T.1. Intention of Citation:

1. attribute non-original ideas

2. provide authorities relevant to the discussion

3. offer sources for further study or research


T.2. Citing multiple authorities

First cite sources to which non-original ideas are attributed or sources that
directly provide support/opposition to the text
T.3. Authorities for support given before authorities for opposition

Support and opposition distinguished by introductory signals (See Section U)


Support - see, see also, cf.

Opposition - contra, but see, but cf.

Example:

JUSTICE EDGARDO L. PARAS, CIVIL CODE OF THE PHILIPPINES


ANNOTATED: PRESCRIPTION; OBLIGATIONS AND CONTRACTS ARTICLES
1106-1457 84 (2016). Contra HECTOR S. DE LEON, THE LAW ON
OBLIGATIONS AND CONTRACTS 50 (2003).
T.4. Support or opposition may be direct, indirect or analogous. Cite all authorities
for support in that aforestated order, before those for the opposition in the same
order.

Example:

339. PARAS, supra note 3, at 84. See also DE LEON, supra note 10, at 30.
Contra TORRES, JR., supra note 12, at 55.

*Supra note: refers to the footnote number (ex.) third footnote = PARAS, supra
note 3)
T.5. Support or opposition may also be given by authorities in their own right, or
when related to other authorities.

T.5.1. Cite first the authorities which support the text in their own right, before
citing those which must be related to other authorities in order to demonstrate
support. Do the same for the authorities in opposition.

Example:

340. COMMENTS AND CASES ON OBLIGATIONS AND CONTRACTS, article


1169. See also COMMENTS AND JURISPRUDENCE ON OBLIGATIONS AND
CONTRACTS, articles 1169-1171. See also AGPALO, supra note 25, at 55.
Compare PARAS, supra note 3, at 84 with STA. MARIA, supra note 100, at 43.
Contra MARK KRISTOPHER TOLENTINO, LAW ON OBLIGATIONS AND
CONTRACTS 101: THE BASIC APPROACH.
T.6. Lastly, cite authorities which are merely intended to provide the reader with
tangential sources for further study, personal analysis, or research.

Example:

341. PARAS, supra note 3, at 120. See generally MARK KRISTOPHER


TOLENTINO, LAW ON OBLIGATIONS AND CONTRACTS 101: THE BASIC
APPROACH, supra note 200.
