Court Rules
Legal data API and MCP server for integrating sourced court rules, filing checks, deadlines, and privacy enforcement records into applications.
About Court Rules
Court Rules is a legal data platform that makes federal and state court rules, judge procedures, standing orders, filing requirements, court holidays, and privacy enforcement records searchable. Each rule is traced to a source document, page, and section for verification.
The public interface includes judge and court search, rule comparisons, court holiday calendars, and deadline calculators. Tracked requirements include page and word limits, formatting, courtesy copies, electronic filing, pre-motion conferences, discovery disputes, and sealing procedures.
For developers, Court Rules provides a REST API, TypeScript and Python SDKs, and structured JSON responses. Applications can retrieve judge-specific rules, classify uploaded filings, count pages and words, and return pass, fail, or action-required results for applicable requirements.
Its remote MCP server exposes nine tools for court rules and regulatory enforcement research. It supports server-to-server connections and AI clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Codex CLI.
