Check ECLIs in AI legal text
Check whether an ECLI exists - and whether there is a signal that the judgment was later quashed in the same case.
Why this matters
AI texts can contain convincing but incorrect ECLI citations. A real judgment may also later have been (partly) quashed on appeal or cassation. Without that check, a memo or filing may rest on a source that no longer holds procedurally.
How VeriLeges helps
VeriLeges (a Softron B.V. product) detects ECLIs, checks whether they exist, and can - where metadata allows - show a review signal for later quashing. You get source links, including a link to the later judgment. No LLM.
What you see
- Judgment found or not found
- Soft or hard signal for (partial) quashing by a later instance
- Direct link to the later judgment on Rechtspraak.nl
What this is not
This is not a claim that a source is unusable in every context, and not a doctrinal or precedent judgment. It is a factual procedural signal: open the later judgment and decide what remains relevant.
