What is jural state

A living model of where you stand.

Your jural state is the complete set of legal relations you hold at this moment with every counterparty, authority and agent — modelled as parties (nodes) and jural positions (edges) that change over time. Four positions — claim, liberty, power and immunity — replace vague legal context with a precise vocabulary.

Not practice areas. A living model of where you stand.

Example

From specification to state

Same DPS, two perspectives. Each party sees their own jural state — the claims, liberties, powers and immunities they hold toward the counterparty.
