This repository is part of the Find Case Law project at The National Archives.
Warning
You need to apply for a licence to do computational analysis of Find Case Law records. Other use is licenced under the Open Justice Licence.
Note
The National Archives want to understand how we can improve the experience for people applying for a licence. We are conducting a round of research during August 2024. If you would like to take part in the research please register your interest by completing this short survey.
This is the central repository for the Find Case Law service. It includes architectural decisions, technical designs, and links to individual code repositories for the various component microservices.
If you are looking for documentation covering user research, design decisions or accessibility, take a look at the Wiki.
