HRRS is an online legal journal . The acronym HRRs stands for H öchst R maybe variable R real case-chung in the S trafrecht.

It is part of the hrr-strafrecht.de website , which offers its users free access to the highest court rulings in criminal law . The magazine, which appears exclusively online, provides an overview of all the decisions of the Federal Court of Justice in criminal matters published in the past month . In addition, since 2003 selected decisions of the Federal Constitutional Court on criminal and criminal procedural matters as well as important decisions of the European Court of Human Rights and the European Court of Justice have been included. There are also essays, decision notes, reviews and materials on criminal law.

Older decisions published in the official collection of the Federal Court of Justice ( BGHSt) were also included in the database linked to the HRRS . These go back to the 38th volume.

The journal has a reference edition in PDF format that can be cited according to the number of pages . Decisions published in the HRRS have a consecutive number that starts anew each year and can be used to cite the decision. The quote "HRRS 2007 No. 197" stands for a decision by the investigative judge of the Federal Court of Justice on covert online searches of January 31, 2007 (= BGHSt 51, 211).

The reason for the establishment of the HRRS (initially still under the name HRR-Criminal Law) was to make all decisions of the Federal Court of Justice in criminal law completely accessible to everyone free of charge. This should "democratize" informative access to case law. Up until the founding of the HRRS, decisions by the Federal Court of Justice were only published selectively in legal journals or could be obtained for a fee on paper from the Federal Court of Justice or via databases that were subject to a fee.
