JUDLEX can only cite what it has read. Above the table of exhibits, in the Classified section, you have what you need to see how much of the case file has been read and to complete whatever is missing.
Everything in this article that uses artificial intelligence is paid for with your firm's key, directly to the provider: Add your artificial intelligence key. Before it starts, JUDLEX tells you that it is going to use your provider's AI and how much it will send; while it works, how far it has got; and when it finishes, what has been spent. It never quotes a price in advance.
Coverage
The Coverage card counts the pages in the paperwork the case file is built on, according to how they have been read:
pp. with their own text: pages from documents that already carried their text, such as a PDF produced on a computer. These are read free of charge.
read by looking at them: scanned or photographed pages that the artificial intelligence has read by looking at them, as a person would.
to look at — look at them, in amber: scanned pages that have not been read yet. You can click it: see the next section.
illegible: pages that were looked at and had nothing to read, or could not be read.
unread and with no page count: documents that have not been opened yet.
While there are still unread pages, chat answers and whatever JUDLEX finds in the case file only cover what has been read, and the chat reminds you of this.
Reading the missing pages
Two amber labels can be clicked, and both do the same thing: read the missing pages by looking at them, one call to the artificial intelligence per page.
to look at — look at them, with the number of pages in front: scanned pages that have not been read yet.
pp. from an older reading — look at them again: pages read with an earlier method, whose text is not reliable enough to cite.
While it works, the label says how many pages it is looking at with your provider's AI. When it finishes, a message tells you how many were read and how many were illegible. If a document could not be opened, JUDLEX carries on with the rest and tells you at the end which one was left unread, so that you can bring it in again.
Finding dates
Find dates looks at the exhibits that carry dates inside them (orders, procedural orders, written submissions; not invoices) and picks out the ones that point forward: a scheduled hearing, a due date, a time limit that starts to run.
Click Find dates
It is above the table of exhibits. While it works, the screen shows how many exhibits it is searching with your provider's AI and which one it is on.
Wait for the message
When it finishes, a message tells you how many dates it found, how many exhibits it looked at, how many dates it discarded because their sentence was not on the page, and what it actually cost.
Decide in Status
The dates found go to the Status section, under To decide, each with the sentence from the document it comes from. None of them goes into the diary until you confirm it: Case file status.
Find dates does not calculate any due date. If the paper says “within ten days”, you set the date with Count a deadline.
Reviewing outstanding dates
When there are exhibits with no date, or with a date that JUDLEX worked out instead of reading it, Review outstanding dates appears, with the number of exhibits in brackets. It uses artificial intelligence to look again at only the first page of each of those exhibits. This is the date of the document itself, the one that puts the exhibits in order, and it does not need any extension.
When it finishes, the message tells you how many dates it confirmed, how many it left as suggestions for you to check by hand, how many still have no date, and what it cost. The suggested dates appear in italics in the Date column, and you correct them by double-clicking: Exhibits.
While the review is running, Stop appears. JUDLEX finishes the exhibit it is working on and stops. What has already been done is saved.
While it works
On a large case file these readings can take a while. You can get on with something else: when they finish, JUDLEX tells you with a system notification and records it under the bell in the top bar. You decide when it notifies you in Notifications.
All these readings require an active licence and an artificial intelligence key.
