英文摘要:
Over a century ago, Oliver Wendell Holmes invited scholars to look at the law through the lens of probability theory: \"The prophecies of what the courts will do in fact, and nothing more pretentious, are what I mean by the law.\" Yet few legal scholars have taken up this intriguing invitation. As such, in place of previous approaches to the study of law, this paper presents a non-normative, mathematical approach to law and the legal process. Specifically, we present a formal Bayesian model of civil and criminal litigation, or what we refer to as the litigation game; that is, instead of focusing on the rules of civil or criminal procedure or substantive legal doctrine, we ask and attempt to answer a mathematical question: what is the posterior probability that a defendant in a civil or criminal trial will be found liable, given that the defendant has, in fact, committed a wrongful act?

中文摘要:
一个多世纪前,奥利弗·温德尔·霍姆斯(Oliver Wendell Holmes)邀请学者们从概率论的角度来看待法律:“我所说的法律是指对法院将要做的事情的预言,而不是更多的自命不凡。”然而,很少有法律学者接受了这一耐人寻味的邀请。因此,本文提出了一种非规范的数学方法来研究法律和法律过程,以取代以往的法律研究方法。具体来说,我们提出了一个正式的民事和刑事诉讼贝叶斯模型,或者我们称之为诉讼博弈;也就是说,我们没有把重点放在民事或刑事诉讼规则或实体法律理论上,而是提出并试图回答一个数学问题:鉴于被告事实上犯下了不法行为,民事或刑事审判中的被告被认定负有责任的后验概率是多少?
