Protection Of Privacy Of Computerized Records In The National Crime Information Center, Stuart R. Hemphill Jan 1974

Protection Of Privacy Of Computerized Records In The National Crime Information Center, Stuart R. Hemphill

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The purpose of this article is to describe the social benefits and costs of the NCIC and to indicate the need for a program of operational controls to temper the system's impact on the balance between individual privacy and law enforcement needs. Various approaches which could be incorporated into a program of safeguards are introduced and briefly analyzed. Finally, the article discusses several overall design issues which should be considered in the construction of an adequate program of safeguards. Particular emphasis is placed on the NCCH file since it is the major source of the tensions underlying the issues addressed.


Formalizing Hohfeldian Analysis To Clarify The Multiple Senses Of 'Legal Right': A Powerful Lens For The Electronic Age, Layman E. Allen Jan 1974

Formalizing Hohfeldian Analysis To Clarify The Multiple Senses Of 'Legal Right': A Powerful Lens For The Electronic Age, Layman E. Allen

Articles

Careful communication is frequently of central importance in law. The language used to communicate even with oneself in private thought profoundly influences the quality of that effort; but when one attempts to transmit an idea to another, language assumes even greater significance because of the possibilities for enormously distorting the idea. Word skill is to be prized.

Personal Privacy In The Computer Age: The Challenge Of A New Technology In An Information-Oriented Society, Arthur R. Miller Apr 1969

Personal Privacy In The Computer Age: The Challenge Of A New Technology In An Information-Oriented Society, Arthur R. Miller

Michigan Law Review

The purpose of this Article is to survey the new technology's implications for personal privacy and to evaluate the contemporary common-law and statutory pattern relating to data-handling. In the course of this examination, it will appraise the existing framework's capacity to deal with the problems created by society's growing awareness of the primordial character of information. The Article is intended to be suggestive; any attempt at definitiveness would be premature. Avowedly, it was written with the bias of one who believes that the new information technology has enormous long-range societal implications and who is concerned about the consequences of the …

A Language-Normalization Approach To Information Retrieval In Law, Layman E. Allen Jan 1968

A Language-Normalization Approach To Information Retrieval In Law, Layman E. Allen

Articles

An information retrieval system (as distinguished from a document retrieval system) is described for handling statute-oriented legal literature. The Normalized Sentence-Index Matrix (N-SIM) system suggested differs from more traditional retrieval systems for legal literature in three respects: (1) the categories used for classification are normalized versions of sentences from statutes, regulations, treaties, constitutions, case opinions, legal treatises, law review articles, and other documents in legal literature, (2) the classification system is hierarchial and open-ended to evolve with the literature through time, and (3) the organization of the file facilitates some analysis of the literature by computer. A sentence is expressed …

Science-Computers-The Use Of Data Processing In Legal Research, Michigan Law Review Mar 1967

Science-Computers-The Use Of Data Processing In Legal Research, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

In 1960, at the American Bar Association Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C., representatives of the University of Pittsburgh Health Law Center conducted a demonstration of the use of an electronic computer in searching statutory materials. For purposes of the search, each statutory section had been numbered consecutively and programmed into the computer which contained an alphabetical list of every word in the statutes (with the exception of articles) and their location. To locate material on a given topic, the searcher requested the machine to list the location of key words or combinations of words which he believed were present in …


Bank Statements, Cancelled Checks, And Article Four In The Electronic Age, Norman Penney Jan 1967

Bank Statements, Cancelled Checks, And Article Four In The Electronic Age, Norman Penney

Michigan Law Review

My task was to prepare a short article dealing in some depth with specific problems which have arisen under Article Four of the Uniform Commercial Code (Code). Unfortunately for purposes of criticism, but happily for those affected by Article Four, a canvass of recent reported cases as well as bank operations people and bank counsel has revealed very few problems of any significance to either the general practitioner or even the so-called commercial law specialist. This prompts two comments: (1) Article Four seems to be working so smoothly that to develop a "problem" would be to make a mountain out …


Legal Research--Computer Retrieval Of Statutory Law And Decisional Law, David T. Moody Jun 1966

Legal Research--Computer Retrieval Of Statutory Law And Decisional Law, David T. Moody

Vanderbilt Law Review

Legal research presently involves a considerable amount of any lawyer's time and efforts largely because it is a slow and tedious process. Searching for a pertinent legal point can prove to be time-consuming and often fruitless. Moreover, it is here that chance plays one of its largest roles in the law.' An important legal point may exist,yet the researcher may fail to find it although he exercises a great degree of diligence. All lawyers must recognize this problem and the fact that it is becoming more acute with the passage of time. Something needs to be done to facilitate legal …

The Electronic Searching Of Law, Reed Dickerson Jan 1961

The Electronic Searching Of Law, Reed Dickerson

Articles by Maurer Faculty

Although the use of electronic computers in legal research has not yet been perfected, Professor Dickerson believes that computers may be at least a partial answer to the problem created by the ever-increasing mass of statutory material and judicial decisions that must be consulted to determine the law on a given point. He explains just how the computers are used in legal research and points out their limitations as well as their advantages. [For a general discussion of this subject, the reader is referred to the article, "Prepare Now for Machine-Assisted Legal Research", by Roy N. Freed, 47 A.B.A.J. 764 …
