The OWL legal case ontology — called Legal Case Ontology version 9 — described in Dr. Adam Wyner and Dr. Rinke Hoekstra’s new article, A Legal Case OWL Ontology with an Instantiation of Popov v. Hayashi, has been posted on Dr. Wyner’s blog, along with a link to the Protégé ontology editor which can be used to view the ontology.

Many thanks to Dr. Wyner for posting this.
