(This is correct, 28 though I think it looks wrong. In other cases, OSCOLA
requires that one put a comma between different parts of a citation which are
in text, even if there are different fonts. I can’t see why it doesn’t here: 29 but
it doesn’t.)
Old cases reprinted in the English Reports
Where a case appears in one of the old nominate reports and is also reprinted
in the English Reports or the Revised Reports, oscola requires that you give
references to both the original nominate report and to the English Reports. 30
So in such cases you need to define two reports, and to use two pinpoints.
Complete all the usual fields for the report reference (reporter, volume,
series and so forth) with the details of the original nominate report. Enter
the ‘parallel’ citation to the English Reports as follows: parvolume holds the
report volume number; parreporter holds the report title; parseries holds
the series (if any) and parpages holds the page reference.
If you simply want to cite the first page of the case, without any pinpointing,
then use the \cite{} or \footcite{} command as usual, and the reference
will be formatted as per bl-oscola, with two references separated by
commas.
If you want to give pinpoint citations, you need to specify them in the
postnote argument by separating them with the pipe character: |.
@jurisdiction{henly28,
}
title = {Henly v Mayor of Lyme},
date = {1828},
volume = {5},
reporter = {Bing},
pages = {91},
keywords = {en},
parvolume = {130},
parreporter= {ER},
parpages = {995},
\cite{henly28} Henly v Mayor of Lyme (1828) 5 Bing 91, 130 ER 995
\cite[93|995]{henly28} Henly v Mayor of Lyme (1828) 5 Bing 91, 93; 130 ER
995, 995
Cases with parallel citations will never be given in shortened form, if there
is a pinpoint citation, because the resulting citation (‘(n x) 23; 40’) would be
confusing. Nor will ‘ibid’ be used, for the same reason
28 See oscola, 18.
29 In other forms of case citation a comma is unnecessary, because the (year) or [year] marks a
clear division.
