Response fields

​

​

The validated extracted rule payload. It includes source text, summary, tags, workflow phase, severity, structured data, and citation details when captured.

​
document_version_id

​
Filtering behavior

When judge_slug is provided, the endpoint returns rules for that unit. With include_court_rules=true, the response also includes court-level rules for the same court. This lets clients combine court rules with judge, calendar, department, or courtroom overrides. This endpoint exposes raw extracted rules first. It does not yet resolve conflicts or compute the final effective rule set for a filing.
