Description
Short sequential NotebookLM prompts for judgment analysis using uploaded litigation documents, with source/page grounding and gap checking.
These prompts are intended to be run as a series rather than pasted as one long instruction. They work best after the relevant pleadings, affidavits, exhibits, correspondence, bundles, notes of evidence, judgments or appeal papers have been uploaded into the notebook.
