01

Ingest the record

Organize the complaint, summons, parties, service dates, filings, evidence, court, department, and known procedural posture.

02

Resolve the governing authority

Identify the applicable jurisdiction, current statutes, rules, local procedure, standards, and controlling or persuasive decisions.

03

Calculate the procedural state

Determine which deadlines have been triggered, what has been preserved or waived, and which prerequisites are satisfied or missing.

04

Generate the option graph

Map every procedurally available response, including compatible actions, conflicts, dependencies, likely reactions, and downstream effects.

05

Develop the argument

Connect record facts and evidence to authority, burdens, standards, counterarguments, requested relief, and unresolved uncertainty.

06

Prepare execution

Produce the selected documents, filing sequence, service steps, costs, dates, and completion checks for user review and approval.

07

Update continuously

Recalculate the timeline and option graph as filings, rulings, hearings, discovery, evidence, and opposing conduct change the case.

Phase One

The complaint-response problem.

"I was served with a civil complaint. What can I do, why can I do it, what conflicts, what must happen first, and what will each path require?"

The answer must be grounded in the actual complaint, service history, jurisdiction, causes of action, available evidence, deadlines, and governing authority. Uncertainty must be visible, and the litigant remains responsible for selecting the strategy.
