Official publications
Official publications in the One-L Dictionary
Cases, regulations and statutes are published electronically or in book format in either official or unofficial publications. Official publications are those that have been authorized by statute or governmental ruling. Unofficial publications, which have not been so sanctioned, often have additional research aids to help the user. For example, the Supreme Court Reporter is an unofficial version of U.S. Supreme Court opinions while the U.S. Reports is an official source. Citation rules may require references to both official and unofficial versions or only one version. The Bluebook provides information about official versus unofficial publications.
