Every Supreme Court of Canada decision, in your pocket.
SCC Decisions gives you instant access to over 11,000 rulings from Canada's highest court — from landmark constitutional cases to the latest judgments handed down this week. Whether you're a lawyer, law student, paralegal, or simply someone who cares about Canadian law, SCC Decisions keeps you informed and in command.
Stay current the moment it matters
The Supreme Court of Canada typically releases decisions on Thursday mornings. With SCC Decisions, you'll receive a push notification within the hour — before it hits the news. No more refreshing websites or waiting for a colleague to forward the link.
Plain-language summaries
For decisions since 2014, the Court publishes a "Case in Brief" — a plain-language summary written by the Court's own staff. SCC Decisions surfaces these summaries front and centre, so you can understand the decision without wading through 80 pages of reasons.

See exactly which justices were in the majority, who concurred, and who dissented — at a glance. The decision outcome, the court of appeal below, and the area of law are all displayed clearly on every case.
