Yes. In my LRW statements of facts required a citation after every sentence (facts came from somewhere, right?). If you quote cases/statutes in anything else, cite it.

I guess it varies from school to school. My LWR professor didn't want citations in the questions presented, brief answers, or statement of facts parts. He did want them in the discussions sections and conclusion section.

FTFY. Check with your professor because after all s/he is the one grading your paper.
