What the search covers

  • Legislation

    Codes, laws, organic laws, decrees, orders, circulars and other official Tunisian texts.

  • Case law

    Decisions of the Court of Cassation, the courts of appeal, the courts of first instance, the Administrative Court and the Land Court.

  • Arabic and French together

    One search covers both languages: you don't need to translate your query to find the judgment written in Arabic.

  • In force or repealed

    Every result shows its status, so you don't cite a text that no longer applies.

How a search works

  1. Type words, a title or a reference

    For example “commercial lease” or “Law No. 77-37”, in Arabic or French.

  2. Narrow it down

    Filter by type of text, court, chamber, subject, business sector or year, and limit to texts in force if needed.

  3. Open the source

    Read the full text when it is available; the interface tells you whether you are looking at the full text, a summary or an extract.

Why a search engine dedicated to Tunisian law

Tunisian law is published in Arabic and French, and most case law is written in Arabic. A general-purpose engine, or a search in only one language, misses part of the sources.

Clauze brings these texts into one index, tags them by type, court and subject, and uses them as the foundation for every other tool on the platform: the assistant, document review and drafting all work from the same corpus.

Questions about search

How many texts are in the Clauze corpus?

Can I search in French for a judgment written in Arabic?

Yes. Search is cross-lingual: a French query also finds decisions and texts written in Arabic, and the other way round.

How do I know whether a text is still in force?

Every result is marked “in force” or “repealed”, and you can limit your search to texts in force.
