We present the evaluation of the legal question answering Competition on Legal Information Extraction/Entailment (COLIEE) 2017. The COLIEE 2017 Task consists of two sub-Tasks: legal information retrieval (Task 1), and recognizing entailment between articles and queries (Task 2). Participation was open to any group based on any approach, and the tasks attracted 10 teams. We received 9 submissions to Task 1 (for a total of 17 runs), and 8 submissions to Task 2 (for a total of 20 runs).
