SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ORGANIZING AND PRESENTING EVIDENCE RELEVANT TO A SET OF STATEMENTS
First Claim
1. A computer program product, comprising a computer readable medium having computer readable program code stored thereon in computer-executable format, said computer readable program code, when executed by a computer, causing the computer to effect a method comprising:
- accepting as input a set of statements, a set of argument tags associated with each statement, a set of evidence items, and a set of argument tags associated with each evidence item;
collecting, for each statement, the group containing any evidence item that is relevant to the statement, where relevance is indicated by at least one argument tag shared between the argument tags associated with the statement and the argument tags associated with the evidence item; and
presenting the set of statements and, for each statement, the evidence items relevant to the statement.

Abstract
Evidence relevant to a set of statements can be organized and presented to a user using a suitably programmed computer system. The computer system accepts as input from the user a set of statements, a set of argument tags associated with each statement, a set of evidence items, and a set of argument tags associated with each evidence item. The computer then collects, for each statement, the group containing any evidence item that is relevant to the statement, where relevance is indicated by at least one argument tag shared between the argument tags associated with the statement and the argument tags associated with the evidence item. The computer then presents the set of statements and, for each statement, the evidence items relevant to the statement.

11. A computing system, comprising:
-
a user interface comprising a screen display and one or more input devices; and a processor system comprising one or more processors and associated memory, the processor system programmed or configured to include; accepting logic for accepting as input via the user interface a set of statements, a set of argument tags associated with each statement, a set of evidence items, and a set of argument tags associated with each evidence item; collecting logic for collecting, for each statement, the group containing any evidence item that is relevant to the statement, where relevance is indicated by at least one argument tag shared between the argument tags associated with the statement and the argument tags associated with the evidence item; and presenting logic for presenting via the user interface the set of statements and, for each statement, the evidence items relevant to the statement. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
