Legal logic? Or can we do without?
Artificial Intelligence and Law 11 (2-3):197-210 (2003)
Abstract
In this paper the thesis is argued that there is no need for a special legal logic to deal with the defeasibility of legal arguments. An important argument for this thesis is that legal judgements ask for a complete justification and that such a complete justification requires a deductively valid argument.Links
