ArXi:2605.24534v1 Announce Type: new We present a fully automated pipeline that transforms large collections of court decisions into legal commentaries for statutes - without providing any handcrafted doctrinal framework. Using 4.555 decisions of the German Federal Court of Justice that cite sections 242, 280, 812 and 823 of the German Civil Code (BGB), we extract paragraph-level chunks, summarize their reasoning, and derive keywords, which are embedded and clustered.
