| A database of decisions
by national Courts on the interpretation of maritime conventions has been established
on the CMI website. Its purpose is to make available to judges, lawyers, academics
and to the industry as many judgments as possible from as many Courts situated
in as many countries as possible on the interpretation of maritime conventions,
in the hope that that will contribute to their uniform interpretation. The database is structured with reference to each convention and then for each convention with reference to individual subjects, listed in an alphabetical order, with the indication of the relevant article. For each judgment there are indicated the country, the judicial authority, the date of the judgment, the names of the parties and the journal where the judgment has been published. There follows a summary of the facts and the head notes. At present the database contains summaries of judgments that relate to the following Conventions:
The more judgments may be included, the more interesting and useful the database will become. It was hoped, therefore, that judges, lawyers, academics and the CMI National Maritime Associations would contribute to its development by sending to the e-mail address of Prof. Francesco Berlingieri: the text or a summary of recent judgments in which issues relating to the interpretation of maritime conventions are considered. | ||||||||||||||||||||
