Using OSCOLA: ECHR cases

Judgments of the European Court of Human Rights

Where possible, refer to the official reports, the Reports of Judgments and Decisions (ECHR) or the European Human Rights Reports (EHRR).

Cite a case in your work by the party names, year published, volume, law report abbreviation and the page number.

Example: Omojudi v UK (2010) 51 EHRR 10

Tips

  • For an unreported case, give the application number and then the court and the date of the judgement in brackets.
  • Prior to 1996 the Reports of Judgments and Decisions (ECHR) were known as Series A and numbered consecutively.
