Scholars of the English language specializing in discourse analysis explore relations between writer/reader and speaker/listener in legal genres. They consider interactions among legal experts,
interactions between legal experts and mixed audiences, and interactions between legal experts and lay people. Among the topics are interpersonal positioning in the discourse of judicial
interpretation, interpersonal and interactional markers in legal research articles, legislative drafting guides and manual: the case of the Scottish government publication Plain Language and
Legislation, the interplay between discursive and professional practices in domain name arbitration awards, and the realization of interpersonality features in jury instruction. Annotation
