Jersey Law Reports contain the published judgments of the Royal Court and the appeal courts from 1985 onwards. They continue the series of Jersey Judgments published by the Royal Court from 1950 to 1984 and are concerned with matters of lasting legal importance which have been selected from the court records (Unreported Judgments) for additional editing, research and indexing.

Unreported Judgments are the "raw material" - the judgments of the courts as issued by the courts themselves from 1997 onwards. By no means will all the Unreported Judgments be reported on.
