For Florida law firms
Case-citation existence check (CourtListener)
firm lane · Deterministic — no model call
Current availability
ShippedConfigured and enabled: on when the token exists; treatment (Westlaw/Lexis) stays dormant.

- the workstation plan
Status is evaluated against this deployment's configuration by the capability-status service at build time; the catalogue's facts were last reviewed on the date shown.
Capabilities
- ShippedEvery case citation in a brief matched against CourtListener's database of opinions — a non-existent or invented citation is named before filing.
Limits
- Existence only: no treatment, no history, no red flags — those need the firm's own citator (dormant slot).
- Rate headroom depends on the platform's CourtListener token; a lookup outage is reported, never hidden.
What EstateDraftFL refuses
| Reason code | HTTP | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| citator-unavailable | — | The lookup could not be completed; the panel says so and never marks a citation verified. |
