Introduction

The Canadian Citation Committee is an ad hoc group formed to support the standardization efforts of the Judges Technology Advisory Committee (JTAC) of the Canadian Judicial Council (CJC). The members volunteer their time to produce useful standards for the Canadian legal community.

This Website, hosted by LexUM, presents the CCC standards to the legal community and provides various documentary resources to make their implementation easier.
