- Researchers checking papers and legal citation reviewers
- Worth noticing
- The legal browser extractor marks every citation NOT_CHECKED; a separate CLI checks only CourtListener case existence and case name.
Field notes
For papers, the page describes separate checks for existence, metadata matching, retraction status, and abstract-level claim support, labeling the support check a first-pass screen rather than a verdict. For legal material, browser extraction leaves every row NOT_CHECKED; the separate CLI is limited to CourtListener case existence and case name, excluding statutes, regulations, BIA and AAO decisions, quotations, and pinpoint citations.
