This collection is notable because each decision is headed by a brief statement outlining its underlying legal principle. In this regard it is a forerunner to a casebook, a point indicated in the title, which says the reports contain "not only the determination of the lords in the cause, but also the positions of law made use of in the pleading, which may serve for an alphabetical compend," that is, a student notebook of exemplary cases.
