Description

Grab: ​http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/historics/USSC_CR_0370_0421_ZO.html

The CMS CSL generates this:
Engel v. Vitale, U.S., vol. 370, 1962.

According to CMS 17.284 it should look like this:
Engel v. Vitale, 370 U.S. 421 (1962).

i would prefer to fix this myself if you guys don't mind--it'll take me less time because i'm familiar with the styles. this has to be done for all CMS styles. elena

(In [4228]) Addresses #1408, adds case citations to Chicago styles; US Supreme Court decisions are cited correctly; additional mapping in Zotero/csl needs to be done for lower-federal, state, and local decisions

Dan,
Can we do this now: add docketNumber to case item type, then map docketNumber to number in Zotero? I know this needs to be changed in the schema, but you did mention that you would be amenable to schema changes for legal citations: ​http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/5439/question-local-extensions-to-schema/#Item_10
Thanks,
Elena
