Create an open search engine by keywords and law articles for the website of the [[http://www.bger.ch/fr/index/juridiction/jurisdiction-inherit-template/jurisdiction-recht/jurisdiction-recht-leitentscheide1954.htm|Swiss Supreme Court]]. Currently, the Swiss Supreme Court website search is powered by [[http://www.swisslex.ch|Swisslex]], which charges fees for efficient jurisprudential research. Searching their website with Google is a free alternative, however this type of search is too generic and broad. | {{:project:legal:yacy-search-1.png?200}}{{:project:legal:yacy-search-2.png?210}} |
