Hello:
I am a law student at NOVA Southeastern University. I am in the process of compiling information regarding Turkey's legal system. I am specifically interested in citation format for cases in Turkey and abbreviations for the court reporters. If you know of any law schools in Turkey or Turkish attorneys that I can contact, please email me at jonesadamsv@nsu.law.nova.edu. Additionally, if you know of websites with this particular information, please forward that information to me as well. Thank you in advance for your cooperation. Kindest Regards, Veresa Jones Adams NOVA Southeastern University Junior Staff Member, International Citator |

Hello Veresa,
try clicking on Türk Hukuk Sitesi in the above field, for info about English litterature. The lawschools in Turkey do not teach in English, the most useful foreign languages for Turkish lawyers are German and French, but I think you can find someone to help you. You can try writing a general real letter to Istanbul and Ankara Universities, or try this: The website of Ankara you can find through the above mentioned Türk Hukuk Sitesi, - click "RESMI SAYFALAR". The university will probably forward your letter to professors who can help you. For lawyers, try www.istanbulbarosu (the Istanbul Bar Association), for students try Yahoo Groups: istanbul-hukuk. another foreign lawyer studying Turkish law - in Turkish |

Hey there,
The problem with this board (which is the only English board about Turkish Law on internet) is that it is hard to find someone to answer guest's questions for just 2 reasons: 1- Most Turkish lawmen dont know English, so although Turkish boards of this forum are quite crowded, nobody dares to enter this area. 2- Ones who can speak English like myself also do not feel comfortable in this forum because we cant usually understand what the guests are talking about since law systems and terms are quite diffent. For instance as for English, your message is ok for me, but I dont have any idea what you mean with terms, "court reporters", and "citation format". Well this can because I dont know these English law terms or more likely because we dont have these terms in Turkish law. Whatever the reason is, I, and many other Turkish lawyers too, cant help you if you dont clarify these with examples. However I can say Danish has a point here. Regards, |

I tried posting a message to clarify, but it did not work the first time.
What I refer to court or case reporters, I am asking you to explain to me where a Turkish attorney would look in order to retrieve a case. In the US, we have various reporters, such as the S.2d or F.Supp. In my research I've notice the term "Adelet Dergisi", which I think is a court reporter. I'm also interested in Turkish periodicals (such as a compliation of law professor and student articles), gazettes, statutes and regulations. NSU is publishing a book in order to help attorneys around the world cite to Turkish law in an indigenous turkish cite. I will try to find more specifics in order to gain further assistance. Thanks to all those who have responded to my original post. |

I also need assistance with abbreviations. For instance, I've found that
there are several courts, such as Constitutional Court (Anayasa Mahkemsi), High Court of Appeals (Temyiz Mahkemesi), Council of State (Danistay) and Court of Cassation (Yaritay - just to name a few. Is there an abbreviation that is commonly used in writing or otherwise when referencing these courts? |

The term "Adalet Dergisi" means "Justice/Law Magazine/Journal" so it is
not connected to what you are referring. (BTW please notice the correct spelling.) If what you mean by "retrieving a case" is "initiate a new lawsuit" or "learn/get documents/make writings about your case" then what you have to do is to resort to "Mahkeme Kalemi" (=Mahkeme Yazıişleri Müdürlüğü") which is a kind of Court office where all official writings of that court has been done. Every single court has an independent "Mahkeme Kalemi" which works under the control of that court's judge. As for abbreviations: "Mah." is a cummonly used abbreviation for "Mahkeme" (=Court) so is "Yarg." for "Yargıtay". The other words dont have official abbreviations but I would like to correct your spellings. Here are the correct spellings: (In paranthesis included the versions with no Turkish special characters) "Anayasa Mahkemesi" "Temyiz Mahkemesi" "Yargıtay" (Yargitay) "Danıştay" (Danistay) There are lots of Turkish Law Periodicals: Yargıtay and Danıştay have their own periodic magazines, which are published in every 3 months. And also nearly every single Bar of the cities have their own law magazines: Istanbul, Ankara and Izmir Bars have the best ones though. Other then their official Bar magazines, most bars publish other law magazines with specific law subjects according to their expertise commisions, such as Criminal Law, Contracts Law and etc. Many law schools all around the country have their law magazines too. Hope this helps.. |
