TL;DR: It is argued that robust models of case-based legal reasoning must also consider the broader social and jurisprudential context in which legal precedents are decided, and an expanded computational framework is outlined that encompasses the reasoning of the examples, and provides a foundation for generating a more robust set of legal arguments.
