Abstract

We have integrated the Jess Expert System tool from Sandia Labs [2] with the Xerces XML parser. We submit to this software contracts and court filings for litigation involving those contracts. These are written as per a contract standard submitted to the Legal XML standards group [5] and the court filing proposed standards. The software determines if a summary judgment request can be granted based on the submitted affidavits, contracts, and other documents.
