Litigation evidence chronology

Build a source-linked chronology from productions without making legal conclusions.

What this workflow does

Build a source-linked chronology from productions without making legal conclusions. It separates observed facts from inference, surfaces conflicting evidence, and delivers a review-ready finding set instead of an opaque answer.

What you gain

Counsel-reviewed evidence chronology

What the AI agent changes

How this worked before

Traditional automation could collect records, but a person still had to compare sources, resolve conflicts, and write the conclusion.

What the AI agent changes

The agent links events across inconsistent case materials, preserves provenance, and flags contradictions without making legal conclusions.

Agent trigger

A reviewed production set or new evidence batch is available.

Inputs

  • Process context: produced documents, metadata, issue tags, and privilege rules
  • Approved policies, ownership, and exception rules

Agent flow

  1. 1

    Collect source material from the approved systems and record its timestamp.

  2. 2

    Cross-check conflicting signals and separate facts from inference.

  3. 3

    Prepare a cited chronology and unresolved conflicts with citations, unknowns, and confidence.

  4. 4

    Deliver the approved report and preserve its evidence set.

Human decisions

After step 3

The accountable process owner approves a cited chronology and unresolved conflicts.

Outcome

  • Counsel-reviewed evidence chronology
  • Evidence, exceptions, and audit trail

Guardrails

  • Label inference separately from observed facts.
  • Do not close the investigation while required sources are unavailable.

Risks and mitigations

Missing or stale evidence can produce a confident but incomplete finding.

Show source coverage, conflicts, timestamps, and unanswered questions.

Sources and evidence

Sources establish feasibility or impact. Not every metric comes from an identical implementation.
