Abstract

Summarization is the process of generating summaries out of corpus. If the corpus is a legal document, the process is called legal summarization. Headnotes are concise notes prepared by lawyers for quick reference of a past Judgment. Judgments are always lengthy, and it is essential to make headnotes for legal practitioners for quick reference analysis. Legal experts generate headnotes, and it is a tedious task to prepare them by reading the whole judgment. With the advancements in technologies, a lot of methods are available to generate a summary of a given document. But for legal documents, the usual summarization technique have the impediment to precisely concise as judgments follow a legal parlance. The proposed method picks relevant paragraphs from a judgment at first, and then it is used to create an extractive summary.
