Automated Legal Decision Support System for Indian Army

Legal processes within the military tend to be complex, known for strict compliance with legal regulations. Timeliness, accuracy, and consistency in legal procedures are crucial in the military to uphold the law and justice. Conventional legal proceedings can be lengthy and susceptible to mistakes because they are done manually. This paper presents an Automated Legal Decision Support System created for the military, which uses Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning to manage legal documents, produce charge sheets, and suggest appropriate actions. The goal of the system is to improve the effectiveness and precision of legal decision-making while upholding procedural accuracy. This paper delves into the system’s architecture, underlying algorithms, and its application through a case study involving a military legal scenario. The ethical and technical challenges, especially those related to military-specific requirements, are also discussed.
