As a result of recent scandals concerning evidence and proof in the
administration of criminal justice - ranging from innocent people
on death row in the United States to misuse of statistics leading
to wrongful convictions in The Netherlands and elsewhere -
inquiries into the logic of evidence and proof have taken on a new
urgency both in an academic and practical sense. This study
presents a broad perspective on logic by focusing on inference not
just in isolation but as embedded in contexts of procedure and
investigation. With special attention being paid to recent
developments in Artificial Intelligence and the Law, specifically
related to evidentiary reasoning, this book provides clarification
of problems of logic and argumentation in relation to evidence and
proof. As the vast majority of legal conflicts relate to contested
facts, rather than contested law, this volume concerning facts as
prime determinants of legal decisions presents an important
contribution to the field for both scholars and practitioners.
