"""Liechtenstein Oberster Gerichtshof (OGH) via gerichtsentscheidungen.li. Endpoints discovered via the worldwidelaw/legal-sources project (AGPL-3.0). We reimplement the scraping based on the public AJAX endpoints. Flow: 1. POST /methods.aspx/getAkten {"s": "OGH."} → list of (case_number, listing_url). 2. GET → results page with onclick="…default.aspx?z=…" per record. 3. GET → metadata divs (hEIItem, aktenzeichen) and the decision text (`
`). The OGH hears both civil and criminal appeals; the source has no civil/criminal flag, so `civil_filter()` is a text heuristic (presence of civil-law markers like ABGB / ZPO and absence of criminal markers like StGB / StPO).
