By the early 1990s, numerous advantages of disseminating legal information electronically instead of in print had become widely recognized. These included the potential for faster and wider access and increased competition. To maximize those gains, the American Association of Law Libraries and American Bar Association recommended that the nation’s court systems adopt public (non-proprietary) systems of case citation that could function readily regardless of medium. A few had already headed down that path. In the years since, others have followed. This article traces the progress of that movement and describes a less conspicuous alternative more recently implemented in a number of U.S. jurisdictions. It surveys the current status of these reforms and examines: their recognition and use beyond the implementing jurisdiction, the gains realized by adopting jurisdictions, and the limited impact of the Uniform Electronic Legal Materials Act on these developments. It concludes with an exploration of the reasons why the shift to neutral case law citation has proven so halting and uneven.

Legal judgment documents are typically lengthy, complex, and filled with domain-specific language. Existing summarization methods often struggle to capture the essential legal reasoning, frequently omitting critical details such as the applicable law and the logical connection between facts and outcomes-resulting in summaries that lack interpretability and coherence. Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have shown strong capabilities in multi-step reasoning and language generation, making them a promising foundation for tackling the challenges of legal summarization. However, their potential remains underutilized in the legal domain due to the need for explicit legal logic and structured inference. To address this issue, we propose a novel summarization framework based on judicial syllogism using large language models (LLMs). Specifically, we leverage the large language model guiding it explicitly to emulate classical judicial reasoning: extracting the major premise (applicable legal provisions), the minor premise (case-specific facts), and finally deducing the conclusion (judgment outcome). This structured reasoning is operationalized through carefully designed prompt engineering and fine-tuning techniques, enabling the model to reason step-by-step like a human judge. We evaluate our proposed method on two judicial summarization datasets. Experimental results demonstrate that our judicial syllogism approach achieves competitive performance compared to several strong baseline LLMs. Ablation studies further verify that each component (law, facts, conclusion) of the judicial syllogism contributes meaningfully to the summarization quality. Our findings clearly indicate that embedding explicit judicial syllogistic reasoning significantly enhances the accuracy and logical coherence of legal text summarization.
