The Bulletin des arrêts is the published record of the Tribunal de cassation, Haiti's court of final appeal. Each volume prints the rulings in full, each headed by the point of law decided, which makes the series usable: a reader can see how the court read a code article before reading the reasoning.
The title page reads ANNÉE 1902, and inside the volume states the exercices 1900-1901 and 1901-1902. The dated audiences bear that out, running from 1900 to 1902 with 1902 and 1901 dominant.
The discrepancy between a title year and a coverage span runs through this series and is why the record's coverage is set from the title page and the audiences together. Commerce is the leading substantive matter after cassation procedure.
Contract enforcement, the execution of judgments and the settlement of property claims are the constraints every business-climate diagnostic of Haiti names, and this series is the primary record of how the highest court actually decided them.
