Set up by decision of the UNIDROIT Governing Council, the UNILAW Data Base is intended to permit ready access by Governments, judges, arbitrators, practising lawyers and scholars to up-to-date information regarding uniform law conventions and other instruments. The data base is in both English and French and is expected to cover a large number of uniform law instruments. Work started on the 1956 Convention on the Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Road (CMR) and is continuing with other conventions.
Lists of the cases available to the Secretariat are provided for each convention. The lists are pdf documents and are updated regularly.
The information in the tables will be entered progressively. Thus, information on the articles applied in the single cases and information on the sources of publication will be entered as soon as possible. The column on sources of publication will give the abbreviations used for the legal periodicals in which the cases, or summaries of them, are to be found. A list of the abbreviations used can also be found on this website.
The column Insertion indicates what has been inserted for each case (basic references, full text, issues, keywords, English Summary, French Summary, or Complete in both languages).
The cases are given a UNILAW registration number when they have started to be processed.
Please note that dates are set out in the following order: day/month/year.
The UNILAW Data Base is under construction. The information it contains is therefore not complete. What UNILAW is intended to do, is provide a more effective tool for research by analysing and classifying the materials it contains. The Editors are grateful for any indications of integrations or other necessary modifications.
THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE DATABASE IS NOT INTENDED TO BE AND IN NO WAY CONSTITUTES LEGAL ADVICE.
