This attribute group describes common attributes for use with certain data elements common to law, safety, and justice applications. This is an attribute group for attributes of elements used for marking up text units or divisions in the body of a court document. <Legal/> is the root element of an XML court document and contains one or more required <CourtDocument/> elements. The "CourtDocument" complex type holds the container elements for the contents of an XML court document. The <DocumentMetadata/>, <CaseMetadata/>, and <DocumentBody/> elements must be present in the order stated. The <Signers/>, <ProofOfService/>, and <AttachedItem/> elements are optional, but must appear in that order if used. The <CourtDocument/> element has a fixed "version" attribute specifying the version number as "2.0". The "ParagraphGroup" complex type contains the content model for a group of paragraphs (i.e. a section containing one or more subsections or one or more paragraphs). The <ParagraphGroup/> and <PrayerForRelief/> are based on it and the <Claim/>, <Count/>, and <Defense/> elements are derived from it. The "Paragraph" complex type is the basic text-containing element in an XML court document. It has a mixed content model (i.e. it can hold text and subelements). The subelements include the elements describing persons or organizations involved in the case (e.g. <party/>, <attorney/>, <person/>, etc.) and various structural elements describing items of text content that frequently appear in paragraphs, such as footnotes, citations, phrases, quotations, lists, links, and dates. The "PracticeAreaTerm" complex type contains one or more <Phrase/> elements describing a span of text having special significance or meaning. The "Phrase" complex type contains a short span of text having special significance or meaning. The significance of a phrase can be further described using the optional attributes. The "AddIn" complex type contains parsed character data or any of the other elements declared in the Court Document schema or imported from any other namespace. It is provided as a mechanism for customizing and extending the Court Document schema by adding in new markup. The "FootnoteNumber" data type limits allowable footnote numbers to a maximum of four digits between 1 and 9. The pattern also allows a "." to appear in a footnote number. Thus, footnote numbers between 1 and 9999.99 are allowed. The "Keyword" datatype defines a regular expression for a single word (including a hyphenated word) containing letters or numbers, but no spaces. <PartyTitle/> describes the role or category of a party (e.g. plaintiff, defendant, appellant, etc.) based on a set of enumerated values. <InRe/> contains the text of an "In Re" (i.e. In the Matter of) case title (e.g. "In the Matter of the Arbitration between Smith Construction Co. and Jones Building, Inc."). <RelationshipWith/> contains elements describing the person, party, organization, court, etc. with which a person or organization has some relationship. <RelationshipDescription/> describes the specific relationship of a person, witness, judicial officer, organization, etc., to another person or organization -- e.g. son, child, employer, partner, spouse, etc. <CourtDocument/> holds the container elements for the contents of an XML court document. The <DocumentMetadata/>, <CaseMetadata/>, and <DocumentBody/> elements must be present in the order stated. The <Signers/>, <ProofOfService/>, and <AttachedItem/> elements are optional, but must appear in that order if used. The <CourtDocument/> element has a fixed "version" attribute specifying the version number as "2.0". <Comment/> contains the text of a comment. <DocumentBody/> defines the elements and content models for marking up the text contents of the body of a court document. <MachineData/> contains one or more <AddIn/> elements, but no text. The <MachineData/> element is intended to serve as a container for marked up data-containing elements needed by processing applications and from which such applications can extract and use the data more easily and more reliably. <ParagraphGroup/> is derived from the "ParagraphGroup" complex type and is the head element of the "ParagraphGroup" substitution group. It contains the con tent model for a group of paragraphs (i.e. a section containing one or more subsections or one or more paragraphs). <ParagraphGroupTitle/> contains the title of a paragraph group or subgroup. <ParagraphSubgroup/> describes the content model for a subgroup of paragraphs (i.e. a subsection). The <Paragraph/> element uses the "Paragraph" complex type and is the basic text-containing element in an XML court document. It has a mixed content model (i.e. it can hold text and subelements). The subelements include the elements describing persons or organizations involved in the case (e.g. <party/>, <attorney/>, <person/>, etc.) and various structural elements describing items of text that frequently appear in paragraphs, such as footnotes, citations, phrases, quotations, lists, links, and dates. <ParagraphTitle/> contains the title of a paragraph. <SubparagraphTitle/> contains the title of a subparagraph. <Subparagraph1/> contains a first level subparagraph. It has a mixed content model (i.e. it can hold text and subelements) like the <paragraph/> element. <Subparagraph2/> contains a second level subparagraph (i.e. a sub-subparagraph). It has a mixed content model (i.e. it can hold text and subelements) like the <paragraph/> element. <Subparagraph3/> contains a second level subparagraph (i.e. a sub-subparagraph).
