## Data Sources
|
| 88 |
+
|
| 89 |
+
Both sub-corpora built from AWS Open Data (no credentials needed):
|
| 90 |
+
- `s3://indian-supreme-court-judgments/`
|
| 91 |
+
- `s3://indian-high-court-judgments/`
|
| 92 |
+
|
| 93 |
+
## Usage
|
| 94 |
+
|
| 95 |
+
```python
|
| 96 |
+
from datasets import load_dataset
|
| 97 |
+
|
| 98 |
+
# Supreme Court cases
|
| 99 |
+
sc = load_dataset("joyboseroy/imljd", "sc")
|
| 100 |
+
|
| 101 |
+
# Karnataka HC quash petitions
|
| 102 |
+
hc = load_dataset("joyboseroy/imljd", "hc_karnataka")
|
| 103 |
+
|
| 104 |
+
# Basic analysis
|
| 105 |
+
import pandas as pd
|
| 106 |
+
df = pd.DataFrame(sc["train"])
|
| 107 |
+
quash = df[df["case_type"] == "quash"]
|
| 108 |
+
print(f"SC quash success rate: {(quash['outcome']=='quashed').mean()*100:.1f}%")
|
| 109 |
+
```
|
| 110 |
+
|
| 111 |
+
## Knowledge Graph
|
| 112 |
+
|
| 113 |
+
A NetworkX/GEXF knowledge graph is included in the repository:
|
| 114 |
+
- Nodes: Case, Statute, Court, Outcome, Precedent, Year
|
| 115 |
+
- Edges: INVOKES, HEARD_BY, RESULTS_IN, CITES, DECIDED_IN
|
| 116 |
+
|
| 117 |
+
Open `data/kg/imljd_graph.gexf` in Gephi for visualisation.
|
| 118 |
+
|
| 119 |
+
## Ethical Considerations
|
| 120 |
+
|
| 121 |
+
- Public court judgments only
|
| 122 |
+
- Names present as in original public records
|
| 123 |
+
- Recommended: anonymisation pass before NLP model training
|
| 124 |
+
- Not suitable for "false case detection" — ground truth doesn't exist cleanly
|
| 125 |
+
- Framing: procedural fairness research, not case outcome prediction
|
| 126 |
