This is very cool, congratulations. When I was in law school, I sometimes visualized the "common law" as a web of interdependencies. This is a similar visualization, although it doesn't quite capture the dependencies, at least as I have always imagined it. For context, the common law refers to law made by (mostly) appellate judges. Sometimes it's built on top of statutory law (e.g., providing meaning, interpretation, or definition to statutory laws) and sometimes it's completely made up, when there is no law "on point." It's made up in the sense that it's constructed on top of a long trail of historical precedent, sometimes going all the way back to Victorian-era England or even older. Really. (Aside: This is why certain individuals sound so silly when they rail against "judge-made law" in the US. Virtually all law in the US is "judge-made law.") Anyway, the common law has always seemed to me to be amenable to representation as a graph-like structure where nodes are cases or precedents and the edges somehow encode the strength of the support for the precedent. I think judges might think twice about breaking from precedent (which can be virtuous or not, depending on your viewpoint) if they could see a visualization of how strong the precedent is. This representation is a step in that direction and I hope your tech can be extended to other common law countries!
