If such technology were used by CanLII, in addition to
legal opinions, from its large databases of materials, other revenue - producing products would be developed for each major area of law and practice, such as: (1) a priced catalogue of the
standard memoranda, which would be advertised in
legal publications; (2) a service that summarizes new decisions, statutory amendments, and significant law journal articles; (3) a newsletter for each major area law and practice; and, (4) specialized databases and projects such as databases of model factums and average sentences and settlements.
And each researcher would create a database of frequently used passages, paragraphs, and footnotes, for his / her specialty, so that the creation of
legal opinions and updating
standard memoranda could be facilitated by copy - pasting such frequently needed blocks of writing.
The
standard way to use CARA is for an attorney who has received a brief,
memoranda or other
legal document to upload it to CARA, and CARA then performs its analysis and generates a list of relevant cases that are not mentioned in the document.
