I'd like to know if there's any work going on out there toward the development of expert systems (or other AI-type systems) designed to assist in making legal decisions. Such systems as I have in mind would be used by judges, lawyers, legal theorists, perhaps even international courts. Please reply to DSchmitz.es@PARC-MAXC Thank you [I believe there has been work at Stanford and at Yale. I also remember reading some newspaper account of a man who wishes to market an automated jury: each side types in its legal precedents and the computer decides which side wins. AIList carried a seminar notice the Stanford work last year. Can anyone give more specific information? -- KIL]
