Despite growing calls for participation in AI design, there are to date few empirical studies of what these processes look like and how they can be structured meaningful engagement with domain experts. In this paper, we examine a notable yet understudied design process the legal that took place over decade ago, impact which still informs automation efforts today. Specifically, evaluation activi...
