Subject: [legalxml-courtfiling] JXDDS Person Object
Dear colleagues: I have been in further discussions with Mark Kindl and John Wandelt at GTRI about the person object and possible ways to accommodate Court Filing's need for an element that accommodates persons, organizations and things. They have suggested that an actor object could be created which allowed the use of either the person, organization, or property object. They have also suggested that this object might be more easily understood and accepted if it were called "party" rather than "actor." I attach a PowerPoint diagram of the possible "actor" element that we have been discussing. I would appreciate getting your comments on it. Can anyone think of another instance -- other than party -- in which we need to be able to accept persons and organizations or persons, organizations and things? It seems to me that witnesses are invariably individuals, even when they are testifying as agents or officers of an organization. "Party" would seem to work for contracts as well as for court cases. In sum, what do you think of the idea of "party" as the name of the object instead of "actor?" I look forward to your ideas and suggestions. -- John M.
