THE GOALS
transform the accessibility & transparency of federal courts
Currently most of the workings of the federal judiciary, whether that be how judges differ in managing cases, how plaintiffs and defendants maneuver in run-of-the-mill lawsuits, or how cases involving corporations differ from those with individuals, are hidden from the public and researchers. This isn’t because data about the workings of the court is unavailable. It’s because the data is locked behind a paywall with an interface that prevents users from assessing systematic patterns about court activity.
