7. The outline of the paper:

 Include Heading
  Main Title
“CASE DIGEST: A Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements in Flood Control and
Drainage/Irrigation”
 Submitted By: SURNAME, First Name M.I.
Submitted To: John Vincent G. Tongol, RCE

 CAPTION. This includes the title of the case, the date it was decided, and citation.
Include also the petitioner, respondent, and the ponente. (These are terms more specific to
law but, look up the meaning to understand them, for wider vocabulary.)
 FACTS. This states the events that are relevant to the formation of the issue.
 ISSUES. Include only those that are relevant. Issues areusually framed in the form of
questions that are answerable by “yes” or “no.” For example: “Is the contract void?”
 RULING. This usually starts with a “yes” or a “no.” This is the answer to the question
involving the issue. After the categorical yes/no answer, the reason for the decision will
be explained.
8. There is no requirement as to how long the case digest should be. As long as the whole case is
already established and ruled by the presiding judge in the court, the case digest is already done. It
would be easier for you to choose a shorter, less complicated case to avoid having difficulty in
accomplishing the requirement.
9. Please include the reference as to where you obtained the case at the end of the main content.
