Abstract

It is common that certain areas are dominated by one or two central laws, and furthermore legal documents are highly inter-linked and inter-dependent in legal domain. To help people in the domain to understand the complex relations between legal document fragments, a prototypical legal domain navigator is designed and implemented mainly using Semantic Web technologies. It makes the relations more visible and accessible to users with two different views: document and thesaurus views. We plan to expand the prototype to a real service after collecting sufficient opinions on this prototype from legal experts.
