Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template is intended for citing New Jersey Statutes. Right now it links to Rutgers University's Law School's copy of N.J.S.A. because the official New Jersey site does not allow hard linking.

{{New Jersey Statute
| title    = 18A
| chapter  = 7A
| section  = 33
| subsection = a <!-- OPTIONAL for more fine citation -->
| ref = <!-- OPTIONAL extra information that will be appended to the generated reference -->
| citeonly= <!-- OPTIONAL to *only* make the citation -->
}}
