This is a list of the 81 judgments given by the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom in the year 2013. They are ordered by neutral citation.
The table lists judgments made by the court and the opinions of the judges in each case. Judges are treated as having concurred in another's judgment when they either formally attach themselves to the judgment of another or speak only to acknowledge their concurrence with one or more judges. Any judgment which reaches a conclusion that differs from the majority on one or more major points of the appeal has been treated as dissent.
All dates are for 2013 unless expressly stated otherwise.

1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 An augmented panel of 7 judges sat in this case.

3. ^The Master of the Rolls, Lord Dyson, also sat on this case. He concurred with the majority.

5. ^The Lord Justice Clerk, Lord Carloway, also sat on this case. He concurred with the majority judgment.
6. ^A diminished panel of three justices heard this case.
7. ^1 An augmented panel of 9 judges sat in this case.
