LexMap Observatory
Digital case file, right to a defence and the technological criminal trial
A space for professional reflection: the culture of the problem first, the tools second.
Digitising the criminal case file is not about going faster. It is about defending better.
Why the Observatory exists →§ The editorial line
Four themes, one question: how do you defend inside a digital case file.
01
Digitising the criminal case file
Moving beyond the folder of PDFs: OCR, indexing, navigation and links between records, charges, parties and sources.
02
Equality of arms and the right to a defence
Technology as a tool to make the defence's ability to know, verify and challenge truly effective.
03
A suspect-centred defence
The file reorganised around the defended person: charges, own facts, third-party facts, accusatory nexus, relevant records.
04
AI, method and limits
AI as support for reading and organising, not as a replacement for the lawyer's judgement.
