It's more used in business contracts than criminal cases. Check out some EULAs.

12 months from the date? That's amazing, when "New year" is just basically a single day holiday. What a bonus!

"New Year" is one day (Jan 1). When you say "new year," you mean the whole upcoming year. I always thought it miserly when somebody only 1/2

The card presumably would have been sent before the 25th December therefore, the new year effective date seems invalid. Bad lawyering..

It was corrected to 12 months from the date hereof - good lawyering

date hereof and “date of this Agreement” means the date first written above.

Agreement isn’t defined ; hereof will be date of the letter

Exactly.. that was my defence.. case dismissed..

You can just put “Including” without the rest. In legal writing, using “includ-“ does not mean what follows is an exhaustive list....cont.

I've been told lawyers are likely to be the first ones replaced by computer A.I......

Ya because robot lawyers sound better than human ones?

They already have in some cases. appealnow.com (not real A.I. but a dynamic letter generator but it's close enough as a starting point).

That would depend so wildly on who wrote the programming, their biases and interpretations, which are both individual and subjective.

Judges interpret the law, lawyers argue it.

Good correction. A better way to put it might be lawyers attempt to pitch their interpretation.

Once true AI is achieved it’ll happen so fast “first” will have little relevance.

Legal support staff, all the people that research cases, do prep work, etc.

Paralegals, yes. Lawyers - probably not. Too much critical thinking required.

And besides the non-AI lawyer, most likely being of fae decent, could cause the AI to glitch out

You mean lying. Too much lying required.

That bald girl in The Matrix bent the spoon to the max. Same with the law, man. There is no law!
