| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | with input from (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_Criminal_Procedure#Parties) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Actors | ||
| + | Parties may have agents acting on their behalf, and these agents may be restricted in their access to the KB to some subset of the authority of the Party. | ||
| + | |||
| + | - Judges - may be different depending on stage of proceedings | ||
| + | - suspect | ||
| + | - defendant | ||
| + | - prosecutor | ||
| + | - police | ||
| + | - injured party | ||
| + | - civilly-liable party (to pay damages and/or fines) | ||
| + | - counsel (lawyers) for suspect/defendant | ||
| + | - witnesses | ||
| + | - experts | ||
| + | - courts | ||
| + | - jury (not in Italy) | ||
| + | - legislature | ||
| + | |||
| + | Actions | ||
| + | The particular actions are roughly categorized based on CRUD | ||
| + | * Create (POST) | ||
| + | * Read (GET) | ||
| + | * Update (PUT/PATCH) | ||
| + | * Delete (DELETE) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Note that the difference between Create and Update is a function of the modularity of the KB. In a highly modular architecture, a new table/knowledgebase-module may be created when a law is passed, when an investigation is opened, etc.. In a less modular architecture, these actions may be Updates rather than Creates. | ||
| + | |||
| + | - (*CRU) pass, modify and annul *laws* - Legislature | ||
| + | - (*R) query (including semantic query) to legal KB for details of the legal code - General Public | ||
| + | - (*CRU) maintain records of investigations - Prosecutor, Judges, Defendant, Counsel, Police | ||
| + | - (CRU) initiate proceedings - Prosecutor | ||
| + | - (CRU) call a hearing - Judge | ||
| + | - (*CRU) file requests (authorization to conduct investigations, such as wire-tapping) - Prosecutor | ||
| + | - (*CRU) issue an order (e.g. authorizing investigations), *with explanation* - Judge | ||
| + | - (CRU) appeal an order - Prosecutor, Counsel | ||
| + | - (RU) drop charges - Prosecutor | ||
| + | - (CRU) proceed to trial - Judge, Prosecutor | ||
| + | - (*CRU) file a brief - Counsel | ||
| + | - (CRU) summon witness or expert - Prosecutor, Counsel | ||
| + | - (*CRU) provide testimony or expert judgement - Witness, Expert, Defendant, Injured Party | ||
| + | - (*RU) convict/acquit, *with explanation* - Judge, Jury | ||
| + | - (*CRU) issue a sentence - Judge | ||
| + | - (CRU) appeal a conviction - Prosecutor, Counsel | ||
| + | - (*RU) reverse, amend or quash a decision, *with explanation* - Judge | ||
| + | - (UD) delete/expunge records - Court | ||
| + | - (CRU) manage records on payment of penalties, imprisonment, etc - Court | ||
| + | |||
| + | Those items with * are the services that go beyond the capability of an ordinary database, requiring encoding of natural language texts into a knowledge representation language and performing specialized actions, such as parsing or (semantic) querying, on that encoding. | ||
