Charge Authority Pack
Enter your charge family and jurisdiction and get the controlling authority for your circuit and the national fallback cases ranked by citation velocity, each with its quote context. Circuit-specific authority is kept separate from national fallback, so you can see at a glance whether you have a controlling case or you're building on persuasive authority — before you start drafting.

Authority modules
National criminal-authority fallback
Label when charge-specific rows are thin and the module falls back to broader criminal-authority records.
Authority quote extraction
Attach cached quote context only when the source record identifies the opinion and quote window.
Citation velocity overlay
Show authority drift as a research signal, not as a recommendation or prediction.
CourtListener source URL suppression
Suppress any authority row that lacks a resolvable source URL before it reaches product output.
Charge coverage
Translate user-facing charge families into internal authority slugs and disclose unmapped coverage.
Live authority map reuse
The authority-map records indexed here carry into the full paid authority appendix once checkout opens.
Counsel-review flags
Prevent recommendation language, predictive language, and uncited authority rows from reaching product output.
