All quotations, whether verbatim or by paraphrase, must have a reference at the end, which is the information that will help the reader to know the source from which the quotation was taken. This reference will be indicated at the end of the quotation, noting in parentheses the author's last name, followed by the year of publication and page number:

«We need to rethink the model of a penitentiary surveillance judge, because this is not an administrative issue, court enforcement is part of the jurisdictional power and we need to look at role models» (San Martín,2017,p.38)

However, when the author's name is mentioned before inserting the citation, it will no longer be necessary to include the author's last name in the parenthetical reference:

Proposes Judge César San Martín (2017) that «We need to rethink the model of a penitentiary surveillance judge, because this is not an administrative issue, court enforcement is part of the jurisdictional power and we need to look at role models» (p.38)

If the cited author has more than one text in the references, the year of publication identifies the cited text. And if there is a coincidence of author and year, the reference is identified by lowercase letter (a, b, etc.):

«According to Article 28, paragraph 1 of the Political Constitution of Peru, the State guarantees the right to freedom of association. This guarantee is manifested not only in the protection of leaders against anti-union acts, but also in the recognition of certain prerogatives so that such leaders can effectively exercise their representative activity, as well as in facilities for the operation of the union organization. These facilities include union leave and union dues» (Arévalo, 2019a, p. 94).

«In Roman law, a distinction was made between the lease of things and the lease of services. By the lease of things (locatio conductio rei) the lessor undertook to grant the driver the temporary enjoyment of a movable (including animals and slaves) or immovable thing, in exchange for which he received an income of money called merces» (Arévalo, 2019b, p. 23).

If the cited text has two authors, their surnames should be separated by the conjunction "and".

«Likewise, for this oral civil proceeding to be viable, it is essential to change or vary the organization of the judicial offices from the traditional model that exists to date. In fact, organizationally, in this type of oral proceedings, as has been said, the central milestone is no longer the case file, but the hearing; therefore, the resources of the Court must be placed in function of the most effective and efficient organization of the hearing» (Bustamante and Angulo, 2020, p. 34).
