Brazilian legislation template.

This is a generic template for a law review article. It is modeled after the Word law review article template that Eugene Volokh created. This template, in addition to converting the coding from Word to LaTeX, adds some features. It includes the option of having multiple authors, using a table of contents, and including an abstract. The code indicates how to modify the template for an article with multiple authors and how to remove the table of contents, the abstract, or both. While there have been a few attempts to create a package that will automatically format citations using the Bluebook style, they have not gone very far or been very successful. So, you are left on your own. I have given examples in the text of how to use LaTeX codes to achieve the Bluebook style, which may help guide you. These should help you with most of the typesetting styles you need, and you can use the Bluebook to determine the particular requirements for a cite.

This is a contract template for Brazilian public service.

The LawTeX project provides LaTeX support for automatic legal citations, and templates for legal briefs and memos in the Bluebook style. Case citations and pin cites are supported, along with tables of authorities.
