The Problem
The case I'm reading is Garcia v National Australia Bank Limited (1998) 194 CLR 395. This was a High Court case. With some of the extra material I am reading, another citation is sometimes given as 155 ALR 614. Is it the same case?
The Answer
By checking in Casebase or FirstPoint you can discover where a case was reported. In this example, the case appears in the following places: 194 CLR 395, 72 ALJR 1243, 155 ALR 614, 23 Fam LR 575, [1998] NSW ConvR 56,675 (55-853), [1998] Q ConvR 60,142 (54-514), [1998] V ConvR 67,050 (54-590), [1999] ASAL 57,481 (55-018), [1998] HCA 48.
The Commonwealth Law Reports are the "authorised" reports for the High Court of Australia, so you should always use this version. But journal articles written before the CLR version appeared would cite one of the other versions.
