I find this attempt legitimate. Judges should not overlook documents and pass them to AI.

"Back to the Future" was set in 2015, where Marty says "Arrested, judged and convicted in 2 hours???" and Doc answers "Justice is swift since we've removed lawyers". We don't be flying cars but we have this comedic performative justice without a single fair outcome (talking from France). Criminals are freed, prison is a big networking symposium for some jobs, good people whose accusers admitted to lying are thrown for 6 years, because they refused to give their lawyer a €1000 bribe for the judge... Things happen. And France is still seen as a civilized country.

Reference to that bribery case? I don't doubt it's real, but I'm curious how it happened in more details.
