Answer Set Programming is a declarative problem solving approach, initially tailored to modelling problems in the area of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning. In this article, we provide a knowledge-based system, capable of representing and reasoning about legal knowledge in the context of Answer Set Programming — thus, modelling non-monotonicity that is inherent in legal arguments. The work, although limited to a specific indicative domain, namely, university regulations, has a variety of extensions. The overall approach constitutes a representative implementation of the Answer Set Programming's modelling methodology, as well as an enhancing of the bond between Artificial Intelligence and Legal Science, bringing us a step closer to a successful development of an automated legal reasoning system for real-world applications.
