Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The City of Chicago. The terms "city," "county," "state," and similar terms are capitalized if they follow the name of the city, county, or state and considered part of the name. Note, however, that this rule does not apply if the terms are used in a title, the caption of a pleading or motion, or other formal use. Answer A is the correct choice because "City" precedes "Chicago" and does not need to be capitalized. Answer B is the correct choice because capitalization is not used for "state." Answer C is not the correct choice because "County" is used as part of the name of the political subdivision. Answer D is not the correct choice because "State" is correctly capitalized as part of the name of the state.
