   Good points. If you look at the info page there is a specific example about how to look up codes of cases that had the same charge. Being able to see how other offenders are sentenced is useful to make sure people are being treated fairly.

   Thanks. I saw your post on reddit a while back. Was going to ask about your tech stack.

   I don't think you understand what you're talking about. There are many databases that are made up of public records. Many aren't free, some are.

   Elasticsearch is a search platform. A "database" but meant for search stuff. It's not part of MySQL.

   Most likely, just like the asdf occurrences.

   Only 3 pages are indexed on Google. Actually, most of the other legal databases (listed on info page) have their cases indexed on Google. However, judyrecords cases aren't indexed on Google. I understand your general sentiment.

    I recently added advanced query support. Looks like I need to clean up some validation. Thanks.

    All the data is from government databases directly, aside from CourtListener, which was recently integrated. It would be good to specifically mention CourtListener's contribution.

    From other comment: CourtListener has about 4 million opinions, which are included. On top of that, 435 million additional cases from throughout the US.

    Looking at the results, those all appear to be from CourtListener's bulk data.
