Frequently Asked Questions
Enforcement Intelligence
What enforcement data is available?
Structured records of privacy enforcement actions from the FTC, HHS (HIPAA), and state attorneys general. Each event includes the entity, fine amount, violation types, laws cited, remedies, and a link to the official government source.
What jurisdictions are covered?
Federal privacy enforcement sources and state attorney general sources, including FTC, HHS OCR, California, Texas, New York, Illinois, Connecticut, Colorado, Oregon, Virginia, Delaware, New Jersey, and other state enforcement authorities.
What are contract search terms?
Each enforcement event includes search terms mapped to relevant contract clauses. When Disney is fined for opt-out failures, the search terms include "do not sell," "right to opt out," and "Global Privacy Control." In-house legal teams use these to scan vendor agreements for similar gaps.
What violation types are tracked?
18 violation categories across consumer privacy (notice failures, opt-out violations, dark patterns), sensitive data (health, children, biometric, financial, geolocation, student), security (data breaches, inadequate safeguards, vendor management), and other (cross-border transfers, automated decision-making, employee privacy).
How current is the enforcement data?
Events appear within 24-48 hours of the official government announcement. Sources are checked daily. Each event links to the original government press release or consent order.
Court Rules
What courts are covered?
Federal district courts, judge procedure pages, state court resource pages, local trial court pages, and court holiday calendars. Each federal judge's individual rules, standing orders, and filing requirements come from source PDFs and are traced to specific pages and sections.
What rules are tracked per judge?
Page limits, word limits, formatting requirements, courtesy copy rules, e-filing procedures, motion practice procedures (pre-motion conferences, letter briefs), discovery dispute procedures, and chambers preferences. Each rule is traced to its source document, page number, and section.
What is a compliance check?
Upload a PDF filing and specify the judge. The API classifies the document type, counts pages and words, then checks every applicable rule for that judge. Returns pass/fail/action-required for each rule with the specific limit and your document's measurement.
How current are the court rules?
Standing orders are re-verified when judges update their individual practices. Court rules are checked regularly against source documents on each court's website.
Access & Integration
How do I access the data programmatically?
Through the MCP server at mcp.courtrules.app or the REST API at api.courtrules.app. MCP works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Codex CLI. See the MCP page for setup.
Is there a free tier?
The MCP server provides sample data (3 enforcement events, 3 courts) with no authentication required. Full access to the complete dataset requires an API key from console.courtrules.app.
What is MCP?
Model Context Protocol is an open standard that lets AI assistants access external data directly. Instead of copy-pasting, your AI tool queries court rules and enforcement data in real time. Works with Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible client.
