The
selection of judicial resolutions is made most objectively
in order to show them as representative of the main trends
in this matter. The criteria for selection are graded;
the basis is composed of choice resolutions issued in
all instances by the higher Courts of the country, indicating
the corresponding confirmation or reversal, offering a
variety of legal topics and, essentially, of important
legal issues dealt with and decided by the Courts. Our
purpose is to promptly provide the readers with the most
recent resolutions on the corresponding subjects (current
and updated). Each bimonthly issue of our publication
contains the transcription of documents selected from
the latest collections of judgments (and courts are encouraged
to put their decisions and material at our disposal, as
far as possible, within the month of issue -for the higher
Courts- and within the three months following the day
of publication or the delivery of a copy thereof to the
parties, for the lower Courts, thus following a universally
accepted practice).
As
to the presentation of judgments and documents, the texts
are unabridged. In the paper edition, those referring
to case law abstracts are at the readers' disposal in
our office. In the Internet version the documents corresponding
to such case law abstracts are not abridged, either. The
search for documents containing judicial resolutions is
made faster and more effective by means of headings and
headlines, key words, fixed vocabulary, abstracts, comments,
summaries and analyses, information on the challenging
means filed by the parties and annotations referring to
legislation, judgments and doctrine. All the above and
generally the bases, analytical structures and data compilation
are protected by copyright, as they constitute an original
intellectual creation, as well as the rest of the material
gathered for publication. In the production of said works
many legal scholars (especially university professors
and legal writers, and judges) have collaborated since
the initial numbers of our paper. Their knowledge has
brought to this collection its fundamental features, thus
shaping the first criteria for the legal and documentary
analysis and for the compilation of the indexes and files
of the time. As from the year 1996 (Volume 113) experts
in legal and computer analysis of international renown
have collaborated with us, deserving from all the readership
a well earned acknowledgment, both in continental as well
as in common law countries. Today our publication has
consolidated on the basis of present-day criteria, as
now we are in possession of the necessary experience as
regards both modern doctrinal approaches and recent legal
provisions (i.e., the General Code of Procedure, that
several years ago introduced hearing system proceedings).
This will be essential for the addition of computer science
practices in the field of law, for Uruguayan as well as
for foreign readers.

Users
of the Legal Information System .-
 Judges
and the State Attorneys are our select readers. We may
state that our paper is resorted to by all of them. It
has always afforded them great advantages in their access
to legal information. Lawyers, Notaries Public, Law Firms
(both lawyers' and notaries') Legal Departments of private
companies and Public Agencies, Court assistants and collaborators
(auctioneers, auditors) and Judicial Experts (physicians,
architects, engineers, etc.) make up the legal and judicial
world to which our paper is addressed, as an inescapable
reference. Abroad, the main Universities and Higher Legal
Learning Institutions -mainly Comparative Law Institutes-
are the most qualified clients, who find in our Collection
the necessary references on Uruguayan Law and the application
thereof. For example, the Congress of the United States
Library, the Max Planck Institute at Freiburg and others.
