I think having a "linter" for laws can be beneficial. It can help producing laws that are easier to read and understand.

Having a "compiler" for laws can help identifying conflicts between different codes of law. e.g.: Imagine having a compiler error when a law is unconstitutional from a logical standpoint.

But verifying the "business logic" (e.g.: what is the spirit or intent of the law?) of the law will remain a human intelligence task.
