Zusammenfassung

This Article proposes a new way to approach citations to international law by using the “Brandeis International Brief,” a template for drafting effective citations. By providing a practical six-step guide that highlights the use of citation from international and commonwealth legal traditions, and the power of favorable amicus briefs, practitioners can increase their chances of success that the Court will consider international issues raised in a brief. This template benefits from the analysis of numerous factors that affect why and how the Court treats international law.
