Law element identifiers (id attribute)

Add a unique id attribute value to any element where the id attribute is valid. Within a document xref links use the id value as the target.

//@id

In IC law reports, the id attribute value must follow the format:

law-series-nnn-YYYY-element-xx

In ORIL law reports, the id attribute value must follow the format

law-series-nnnjjjjYY-element-xx

Where:

law
is a constant
series
is a code representing the case report series. For IC law reports the value of series is always iic. ORIL includes these case report series codes.

For the id attribute value, use the codes in lower-case.

nnn
is the unique sequential number taken from the caseid
jjjj
is the (lower-case) jurisdiction/court identifier taken from the caseid (this may be 2 or more characters).
YYYY or YY
is the year information taken from the caseid
element
is the element name containing the id. This is the local name, i.e. without any namespace
xx
is a unique and sequential value, that follows on from the preceding element with the same name

Do not include the element name and number in the id for the root element, that is exclude the trailing -element-xx.

IIC example

case
id="law-iic-1-2004"
div2
id="law-iic-1-2004-div2-1"
xref
id="law-iic-1-2004-xref-49" ref="law-iic-1-2004-div2-1"
extract
id="law-iic-1-2004-extract-1"

ORIL example

case
id="law-oricl-13icty01"
div2
id="law-oricl-13icty01-div2-1"
xref
id="law-oricl-13icty01-xref-49" ref="law-oricl-13ICTY01-div2-1"
extract
id="law-oricl-13icty01-extract-1"
