The article examines the Belgian Central Register for judicial decisions, introdu‑ced to modernize the pronouncement and publication of judgments. It explains the Central Register’s dual structure (internal non‑pseudonymized and public pseudonymized sections), mandatory digital judgments, access rules, and restrictions on data reuse. We critically as‑sess pseudonymization, privacy protection, workload implications, limits on data mining and AI, and delayed implementation. We then analyze the 2025 Constitutional Court ruling, which largely upheld the system while strengthening guarantees of effective publicity. The article concludes that the Central Register marks a paradigm shift in access to case law with far‑reaching consequences for legal practice and legal culture.
