Humungouz Cases Briefs (Hbriefs) is an online platform established in 2018, dedicated to providing summaries of Nigerian court decisions. It was created to support the legal profession in Nigeria by offering well-structured and accessible case summaries.
At the time of creation, Hbriefs was specially designed to assist Nigerian law students, many of whom find the task of reading full legal judgments tedious or overwhelming. This concern was one of the core motivations behind the platform’s founding.
Each summary posted on Hbriefs is prepared with care by contributor(s) and administrator(s) who work consistently to ensure that the content is accurate, clear, and concise.
In addition to providing new case summaries, Hbriefs serves as a reference tool for legal practitioners and students who may need a quick refresher on the facts or decisions of cases they have previously encountered.
While Hbriefs does not guarantee coverage of all judgments delivered by Nigerian courts, the platform is committed to summarising as many relevant and important cases as possible. Users are also welcome to request summaries of specific cases.
