1. Statistical Analysis of Case Law

At the core of jurimetrics is statistical analysis of case law, which leverages large datasets of past judicial decisions to uncover patterns and trends. This approach can be seen as a form of empirical legal study, where researchers analyze numerous cases to establish predictive models that help determine probable outcomes in similar future cases.
