Abstract
Legal information has been utilized increasingly for developing legal applications. We propose a decision support system to solve legal problems by inferring from knowledge base and interpreting the legal explanation to user. Given a legal case as an input, our system provides the court hearing scenario for each legal case. Our proposed algorithm namely EstoppelProofEngine simulates the court procedure using evidence law. Moreover, the system can conclude the court decision and give the legal explanation to user. This paper presents a decision support system called Legal Advisory System for Thai Cheque Law (LASTC). LASTC can simulate the burden of proof principle used in the court hearing process. Moreover, the system also provides the legal explanation to user. The module of LASTC was examined by various legal cases and compared with the benchmark.
