Here is a revised statement of work from Dr. Leff about this
project.

 

Statement of Work

 

Dr. Laurence Leff
of Western Illinois
 University
and graduate students will develop XML solution for the Order of Protection. 
Mr. John Greacen will advise on this effort.  This work will be entitled the
Order of Protection Effort.

 

This will include:

1) determining how the Order
of Protection should be modeled using the

   Court Document 1.1
standard [Abdul2002].

2) The effort will include
the forms used in at least three states.

3) This will use objects
from the Justice XML Data Dictionary

   Schema Tax Force (JXDDS)
sponsored by the Georgia Tech Research 

   Institute (GTRI)

4) An XML Schema version of
the Court Document 1.1 standard will be

   developed, if one has not
produced by another group.  The group will

   ensure that the schema
version validates the example documents  

   specified in the Court
Document 1.1 standard and the Criminal Justice

   Forms at

   http://fac.wiu.edu/D-Leff/CriminalJusticeZoo.html

5) The work will coordinated
with the Protection Order Advisor, a system

   developed in conjunction
with the Idaho Supreme Court Technology Committee.

   It uses artificial
intelligence to advise prose petitioners requesting 

   a protection order.
[BRANT 2001]  Dr. Leff will coordinate as the liaison

   to the International
Association for Artificial Intelligence and Law.

 

The deliverable to the
Technical Committee will be a white paper on the effort. It is possible that
this may include suggestions for additions or modifications to the Court
Document 1.1 standard.  

Some software may be
produced to validate the proposals using prototyping.  

It will be dealt with
outside of the Technical Committee.

It is hoped that this work
will be completed by January 15th, the end of 

our Western
 Illinois University's
intersession--

every effort will be made to
complete the work much earlier.

 

It is anticipated that
members of the Integrated Justice Technical Committee will provide advice and
information.
