Licence / attribution

  • Federal tables (courts, courthouses, judges [FJC], forms, rules [uscourts.gov]): public domain, US Government works (17 U.S.C. §105).
  • State judiciary directories and state_rules: license=see source terms per row; court rules may carry state or publisher copyright/terms — check source_url / record.
  • Common Crawl archive rows (archive_source=commoncrawl, source=archive): Common Crawl terms of use apply to archive access; every such row carries archive_timestamp and original_url. Original host was not contacted for those rows.
  • Procedure-rules expansion (32 rows, source_collection=state_procedure_rules_official_20261104): official state court rules PDFs/HTML; url+sha256 only (no PDF blobs stored).

Collection rules

Keyless public official sources only; HTTPS + TLS verify (plain-HTTP flagged transport=http); ≤1 req/10s/host or robots Crawl-delay; stop host on first 403/429/challenge; never bypass captcha/WAF/login; forms stored as url+sha256 only; judges limited to public official name/court/title.

  • Merged validated phase3gap rows (official_state_judiciary_sites_phase3gap_20261103) and Common Crawl gap-fill (commoncrawl_archive_gapfill_20261103).
  • Merged procedure_rules (state_procedure_rules_official_20261104) into state_rules.
