Leiden, Universiteitsbibliotheek, BPL 184 (saec. XII, France?) is a codex of 41 folios written in long lines. It contains on fol. 1v-41r a further abbreviation of the so-called Harley Abreviation of Ivo's Decretum on which see London, British Library, Harley 3090.

This version of the Decretum is a further reduction and paraphrase of the Harley group of abbreviations, for it contains no canon found in Decretum sequence that they omit, and preserves a number of their idiosyncracies which are not found in CRPVBSDM. The order of the canons is sometimes rearranged, but there are very few apparent additions against the Harley set. The text is modified too drastically to make collation against the full version worthwhile here.

For the sigla of Brett's edition, see the list in the article on Ivo's Decretum.
