You are writing an essay on the supreme court ruling that declared school segregation unconstitutional. Should this quote be paraphrased or directly quoted, and why?
1) It should be directly quoted because the supreme court is an expert source.
2) It should be paraphrased because you can sum the ruling up in fewer words.
3) It should be paraphrased to avoid copyright violation.
4) It should be directly quoted because it is a legal document.
