Abstract
(As if fall 2020, the final version of this document and replications data for the associated study are available on the Texas Dataverse: https://doi.org/10.18738/T8/SXNR02 Scholars should use those materials instead of this SSRN document.) This document is a coding guide for a research project I am conducting on how lawyers and judges use citations to courts’ opinions in their arguments. It is posted here to permit collaborators and potential collaborators to access the current coding guide. Please contact me before using this guide to ensure that you have the most recent version.
