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 1905 and the dated audiences run 1904 to 1905, the bulk in 1905.
Seizure and jurisdiction lead the substantive profile. Seizure litigation is execution litigation, and it arises when a creditor with a judgment tries to realise it against property, and the frequency with which it reaches the court of final appeal is a measure of how contested that last step was.
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.
