Built for the Scale and
Security of Federal Courts
A comprehensive, AI-native architecture with automated workflows, configurable rule domains, and a layered overlay hierarchy — governed by configuration, not code forks.

API Gateway / BFF
OAuth2 token exchange · Rate limiting · Request routing
Execution Services
Case · Docket · Filing · Documents · Fees · Notices · Search · Audit
Workflow Runtime
13 Temporal Templates · Deterministic · Snapshot-Pinned
Data Plane

| Bankruptcy Adversary Proceeding | Bankruptcy | Pilot Ready |
| Appeal Record Transmission | Appellate | Pilot Ready |
| Receiving Appellate Intake | Appellate | Pilot Ready |
| Briefing Schedule | Appellate | In Development |
| Magistrate Referral R&R | Civil | In Development |
| Habeas / Collateral Review | Civil | In Development |
| MDL Coordination | MDL | In Development |
| Emergency Admin Overlay Handler | Admin | Pilot Ready |
| Escape-Hatch External Secure Channel | Admin | In Development |
Platform Capabilities
Twelve core domains — each driven by governed configuration, not hard-coded logic.
Case & Party Management
Full case lifecycle with cross-court contexts, party relationships, representation tracking, and optimistic concurrency for safe multi-user editing.
Docket & Calendar
Official docket with sequence integrity, deadline management driven by court-specific configuration, and hearing scheduling across multiple hearing types.
Filing & Intake
Server-driven forms from configuration snapshots, package-validated submission, and straight-through processing with idempotent filing.
Document Governance
SHA-256 hash verification, multiple confidentiality classes from PUBLIC to GRAND_JURY_6E, sealing workflow, legal hold, and retention policy enforcement.
Fee & Payment
Configuration-driven fee assessment for all case types, payment orchestration, waiver handling, and court-specific fee rules.
Notice & Service
Template-driven notices from configuration with multiple delivery channels including electronic, personal service, certified mail, email, and print — with service proof tracking.
Search & Reporting
Full-text search with security-projected read models and multiple report types covering filing throughput, processing latency, queue health, and governance metrics.
Audit & Compliance
Append-only hash-chained ledger covering all action types, with configuration provenance on every event and verified PII protections.
Workflow Orchestration
Durable workflow engine spanning civil, criminal, bankruptcy, appellate, and specialty case types. Deterministic execution pinned to immutable configuration snapshots.
AI Operations (MCP)
AI-assisted operations with governed automation, human-in-the-loop approval gates, and prompt templates for court policy review, rollout readiness, and incident triage.
Tenant Isolation
Row-level isolation, per-tenant object storage, per-tenant search filtering, and a comprehensive regression suite enforcing cross-tenant denial including sealed/restricted document access.
Brownfield Coexistence
Multiple adapter types for identity sync, legacy record linking, document export, payment, notification, print batch, search index, analytics, and external filing integration.
Technology Stack
Production-grade, open-standards technologies chosen for federal court requirements.
Security by Architecture
Security is structural, not bolted on. Every layer enforces tenant isolation, access control, and audit.
Zero Trust Architecture
Every request authenticated and authorized across 60+ endpoints. No implicit trust at any layer.
21 Regression Tests
Automated cross-tenant denial, sealed document access, PII scrubbing verification run on every build.
8 Confidentiality Classes
PUBLIC through GRAND_JURY_6E with role-based access enforcement from storage to search to API.
Hash-Chained Audit
36 action types in an append-only ledger with package provenance on every event.
PII Protection
SSN patterns, email addresses scrubbed from logs, metrics, and Temporal search attributes.
MCP Approval Gates
AI-assisted operations require human approval for mutations; every invocation audit-logged.
