“…Much work has been done on the use of computers to identify patterns (Walton 2010) in terms of similar facts and predicting outcomes of cases through the use of artificial intelligence (Unwin 2008).

However, the machine is not 'thinking' in the sense that Alan Turing conceives of in his other most famous work, 'Computing Machinery and Intelligence' (Turing 1950) in other words emulating the thinking behaviour of humans.…”

This paper explores the question of whether or not the law is a computable number in the sense described by Alan Turing in his 1937 paper 'On computable numbers with an application to the Entscheidungsproblem.' Drawing upon the legal, social, and political context of Alan Turing's own involvement with the law following his arrest in 1952 for the criminal offence of gross indecency, the article explores the parameters of computability within the law and analyses the applicability of Turing's computability thesis within the context of legal decisionmaking.
