To our API users, the new search engine is going live slowly, as an extra precaution. We promised it'd swap over yesterday, but to blunt any issues, 10% of requests will use it starting today, 25% tomorrow, 50% on Thurs, and 100% on Fri. One last opportunity to catch things!
We're thrilled to share that our case law search engine just got way better. This has been a huge undertaking and it will bring really powerful improvements to our case law research platform and API. Happy Thanksgiving! free.law/2024/11/25/new-opin…
