[NL] “Observationes rerum in eodem Senatu judicatarum” is een belangrijk zeventiende-eeuws juridisch praktijkwerk van de Nederlandse jurist Jacobus Gerardus Coren. Het werk bevat juridische “observationes”, dat wil zeggen beschouwingen en analyses van zaken die behandeld en beslist werden door een hoge rechtbank (“Senatus”), waarschijnlijk het Hof van Holland. Daarnaast bevat het boek juridische adviezen (“consilia”), een populair genre binnen de vroegmoderne rechtsgeleerdheid. Coren behoorde tot de belangrijke praktijkjuristen van het vroege zeventiende-eeuwse Rooms-Hollandse recht.
Na de eerste 433 pagina’s de Tabula Argumentorum observationum en voorts nog 144 pagina’s met rechtszaken, onder meer over een zaak op Texel. Met index.
