Abstract of judgment
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
An abstract is a brief summary of a judicial judgement, usually written by a Barrister or academic for publication in Law Reports.
Abstracts are of particular use in legal research because they condense the essential points of long, complex judgements into a few paragraphs. A researcher can use abstracts to investigate how relevant a particular case is to the issue at hand, and hence to decide whether (s)he should go on to read the entire judgement.
