Index 2016 to the Information Notes on the Court’s case-law
The Information Note, compiled by the Court’s Case-Law Information and Publications Division, contains summaries of cases examined during the month in question which the Registry considers as being of particular interest. The summaries are not binding on the Court. In the provisional version the summaries are normally drafted in the language of the case concerned, whereas the final single-language version appears in English and French respectively.
An annual index provides an overview of all the cases summarised in each calendar year. To facilitate access to materials in the Information Notes, a running cumulative index will be updated online with each new edition of the provisional version of the Note. The important cases summarised in the Information Notes are indexed by Convention Article, keyword, applicant name and respondent State. The Index also contains a list of cases which have been referred to or rrelinquished in favour of the Grand Chamber.
The Information Note and the index may be downloaded at <www.echr.coe.int/NoteInformation/en>. Legal summaries published in the Case-law Information Notes are also available in HUDOC under Legal Summaries.
The HUDOC database is available free-of-charge through the Court’s Internet site (<http://hudoc.echr.coe.int/eng>). It provides access to the case-law of the European Court of Human Rights (Grand Chamber, Chamber and Committee judgments, decisions, communicated cases, advisory opinions and legal summaries from the Case-Law Information Note), the European Commission of Human Rights (decisions and reports) and the Committee of Ministers (resolutions).
