Law students at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Law held a mock trial to evaluate how AI models administer justice. The fictional case involved Henry Justus, a 17-year-old Black student accused of robbery at a high school where Black students account for 10 percent of the population. The mock trial used a real North Carolina juvenile case template that resulted in a guilty finding and was handled by Joseph Kennedy with the Juvenile Justice Clinic. The exercise was set in 2036 under a hypothetical "2035 AI Criminal Justice Act." The factual record centered on testimony from Victor Fehler, a 15-year-old white student, who said Justus prevented him from fleeing while another Black student demanded money. Recent uses of AI in court produced more than 500 cases with AI-generated errors, and about 30 percent of attorneys report using AI.
