Abstract

Modelling reasoning with legal cases has been a central concern of AI and Law since the 1980s. The approach which represents cases as factors and dimensions has been a central part of that work. In this paper I consider how several varieties of the approach can be applied to the interesting case of Popov v Hayashi. After briefly reviewing some of the key landmarks of the approach, the case is represented in terms of factors and dimensions, and further explored using theory construction and argumentation schemes approaches.

Fußnoten
1
Popov v Hayashi, 2002 WL 31833731. (Cal.Superior Dec 18, 2002) (NO. 400545). The decision was given by the Honourable Kevin M McCarthy and is reprinted in the introduction to this volume.
 
2
This was the view of Rissland and Ashley (2002), where they explicitly say that F2 should be treated as the two extreme points on a dimension, rather than as two separate factors.
 
3
A suggestion supported by the fact that these were both cited in the decision on Popov.
 
4
This case, and another similar leading whaling case were both cited in the decision.
 
5
Although it has been suggested in Berger (2006) that Pierson did in fact wish to interfere because of friction between the different social groups to which the landowning Post and the small holder Pierson belonged. Berger also suggests that the incident took place very close to Pierson’s property and the land was less open than is usually thought.
 
6
The following may fruitfully be compared with the argumentation scheme approach of Sect. 5. The plaintiff argument is Fig. 1 and the defendant argument Fig. 2.
 
7
Or Young: it makes no difference in this representation since the factors actually used in T1 are the same in either case.
 
8
Compare the three distinctions in the HYPO style treatment at the end of Sect. 3.2.
