OK, how would one represent the following example record in MODS?  It's
a law, with relevant fields in Endnote:

Reference Type:                 Statute
Year:                           1968
Name of Act:                    The Anti-Riot Act
Code Number:            18 U.S.C.
Public Law Number:      P.L. 90-284
Sections:                               Sections 2101, 2102
Date Enacted:                   April 11, 1968

Also, there a number of other commonly-used fields in law, such as
session, jurisdiction, and history (this referring to past case law, I
believe).  I have no expertise in law, but I do find myself needing to
cite such records.  Is this covered in MODS?
