The third case of 2007 would be cited 2007 MT 3, and pinpoints are by paragraph number. I think they add the paragraph numbers automatically after they finish writing. The opinions still read like regular prose, not the stilted list of paragraphs sometimes found in a trial court or agency's "findings of fact and conclusions of law."

When I interviewed there, I met two clerks -- they didn't seem particularly overworked, so I'm guessing that their additional task of paragraph numbering wasn't exacting a huge toll.
