    Where is this getting the docs from? It's a lot of work for FLP/Courtlistener to get stuff, and even they don't have 100% of records (not sure if this site is claiming to have 100%, it's unclear)

    Assuming this is Federal Court and not States, right?

    Very cool glad this site is still around after the fiasco with the company claiming a hack / breach when it was their own deployment revealing sealed case files.

    I searched my name. It gave me a hit for someone (criminal trespass) in Texas, in a year I lived there, with my exact same height and ~same weight, and the arraignment date is my birthday. Wasn't me. Spooky!

    Very nice.

    Can you do structured field queries?

    Like, all cases where defendant is X. And maybe where the cause is Y

    I've searched for "sandwich murder" and did not find what I was looking for, but the way the elisions line up are sometimes pretty funny. I've also learned that Subway shops are among the most dangerous eateries and that bologna especially seems to make people irritable enough to open fire. A few highlights for your consideration, redacted to protect the innocent, guilty, or hungry bystanders

      - that the evidence that defendant fired the murder weapon during the sandwich
      - bologna sandwich found at the crime scene
      - presence in sandwich the morning of the murder
      - ways in which they could murder her mother. these included the sandwich ... sandwich incident could not be used
      - crime of capital murder. as a habitual offender, sentenced to life ... to the "bologna sandwich" constituted reversible error
      - coroner testified that victim had eaten a fish sandwich within 2 hours ... prior to his death
      - it was not first degree murder, and the court should have ... sandwich. he paid for the sandwich, but did not pay for the coffee
      - convicted of malice murder and possession of a ... sandwich
      - she was shot and that she had some change in one hand and a sandwich in the other ... sandwich in your hand kind of slow your progress down in getting a gun out of your ... sandwich

    As a free service, I wonder if the burden of complying with a right to be forgotten would be too much to sustain.

    Are these not available in public search sites like Google?

    All of the five searches I tried had Tennessee court documents as the top result, anyone else experience this?

    I appreciate that "we both reached for the gun" and "he had it coming" both turn up more than a handful of hits. "and all that jazz".

    I typed in my name and found my dad likes to drive around without a seat belt. He hates driving with a seat belt. Always has.

    I'm a Jr.
