Template:Infobox case law/doc

This infobox is meant for use on articles about case law and are suitable for inclusion in the case law category. An explanation of how to use this infobox and what each parameter does is listed below.

Usage
To get started, copy and paste the following blank template into the top of the article. (Note: always copy and paste the entire template as a matter of best practice. Blank fields will not appear on the rendered page.) 

Parameters
All fields are optional because they use ParserFunctions, which allow fields to be hidden if no value is set. The infobox is segmented into several basic parts, including an image, basic information about the site, and information pertaining to the treatments applied to the site. Wikilinks and other formatting are acceptable in any of the Infobox fields except map/image and coordinate parameters.
 * ShortName: Shortened case name (e.g. Penn Central v. New York City)
 * FullName: The full case name should try to include the first and last names of all parties and whatever other information is included in the full name of the case (e.g. Penn Central Transportation Company v. City of New York, 438 U.S. 104 (1978)). If that information cannot be found, using a shorter name of the case is permissible.

Any time "et al." is used, there should always be a comma preceding it.
 * ArguedYear: Year(s) the case was argued.
 * DecidedDate: Date the case was decided.
 * Issues: Legal issues addressed by the court. Use bullet points to draw out key issues at hand (e.g. takings, Fifth Amendment, etc.) or else use prose to describe. Use •  for bullets rather than normal *.
 * Holding: A very brief (one or two sentence) description of what the central ruling of the case was. This may or may not be fact specific, depending on how broadly the court's opinion was worded; follow with a short statement of the specific outcome of the case.
 * LawsApplied: Citations to the constitutional and statutory provisions that were the basis for the decision only (i.e. NOT case law, and not every law that happens to be cited in the case or rejected as inapplicable with minimal discussion). Use bullet separated list with •  for bullets rather than normal *.
