Bench Memo Preparation Agent

Judges and clerks face stacks of motions, and checking every cited case by hand takes days. For a pending motion, this agent reads the motion, opposition and reply and lists the issues, the standard of review and each party's main authorities. It retrieves the cited cases and checks they say what the parties claim and are still good law. Vacated or overruled authority and quotes not found in the source are flagged. It drafts a neutral bench memo with facts, issues, arguments and possible hearing questions, noting where a record cite is missing. It then checks every citation in the memo against its source; a wrong or overruled citation is flagged and corrected, then checked again. The judge and clerk review the memo and make any ruling. Edge case: a party cites an opinion later vacated, which the agent flags.
