Description:
A small collection of case reports in criminal matters from the Scottish Sheriff Court, which deals with cases raising a significant point of law or matters of particular public interest. The Court site explains that for legal purposes "Scotland is split into six regions called Sheriffdoms". "Within these Sheriffdoms there are a total of forty-nine Sheriff Courts". "Most cases are heard before a judge called a Sheriff." Both the Scottish Courts site and BAILII pilot service offer the full-text of decisions without charge from September 1998 onwards.
