DevilDocs Takes Round One of Hackathon at ASU Law

The Center for Law, Science and Innovation hosted the 2019 Global Legal Hackathon at the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law on February 22-24. The event attracted law students, local attorneys, computer science students, coders, and other members of the community. These participants spent a weekend planing, designing, and coding tech solutions for the legal industry.

The hackathon featured a panel of expert judges:

 Three teams presented new and innovative applications for lawyers, clients, and the public. Teams included:

morAlIty (Mani Kandan, Anay Gupta)

morAlIty uses AI to predict how justices will vote on a particular issue or issue area, given basic details (features of a case). morAlIty could be applied on a smaller scale in municipal, city, and county courts. This will enable individuals to make a proactive decision based on Morality’s odds for winning a case.

DevilDocs (AJ Gilman, Jay Carpenter, David McCarville, Chad Eylander)

Clients and attorneys are having trouble keeping track of and managing important documents. DevilDocs provides a solution using a decentralized way to distribute and manage encrypted documents.

Mirror World (Bill Mar)

Contracting and governance tools for agreements made in virtual reality.

Taking home the win… DevilDocs!

DevilDocs moves on to the second round of the Global Legal Hackathon, to be judged on March 25. If they move on to the final round, they will be invited to demonstrate their solution live in New York City. Wish them luck!
