Abstract

<jats:p>We report a study undertaken to analyse human performance on the verdict classification task. Several approaches have addressed this task with outcomes compared against the outcomes from actual legal cases. Results vary and we investigate how classification is done by humans. A key finding is that fact descriptions alone are insufficient for accurate classification, independent of legal background.</jats:p>
