CourtRules maintains structured, sourced court rule records covering all U.S. federal circuit and district courts, plus full state court listings for every U.S. state and the District of Columbia. Each rule entry links directly to the specific page and section of the original source document from the court or judge's public website.
Tracked rules include page limits, word limits, formatting requirements, courtesy copy rules, e-filing procedures, motion practice rules, discovery dispute processes, and individual judge's chambers preferences. All records are re-verified when judges update their standing orders, and the team checks source documents on a regular schedule.

Federal deadline calculator: Calculates deadlines under federal rules, with pre-populated federal holiday calendars
Court days calculator: Counts total court days between two selected dates for any supported jurisdiction
Court holidays database: Public closure calendars for all supported federal and state courts
Enforcement actions database: Structured records of privacy fines and settlements from agencies including FTC, HHS OCR, and state attorneys general
MCP server and REST API: Exposes all court rule and enforcement data for use in custom tools and AI assistants
Enforcement Data Coverage
The privacy enforcement dataset tracks events across 12+ U.S. state regulators and federal bodies, updated within 24-48 hours of an official government announcement. Each record includes the fined entity, fine amount, violation types, cited laws, required remedies, and a direct link to the original public consent order or press release.
Violation categories covered include consumer privacy notice failures, opt-out violations, dark patterns, sensitive data mishandling, data breach events, inadequate security safeguards, vendor management gaps, cross-border transfer issues, and employee privacy violations. Each entry includes mapped search terms so legal teams can scan vendor contracts for corresponding risk clauses.
Integration Capabilities
The platform provides two programmatic access methods for developers and legal engineering teams:
A REST API that returns structured rule and enforcement data, accessed with a permanent non-expiring API key
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that works natively with Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Codex CLI. Compatible AI assistants can query real-time court rules and enforcement data without manual copy-paste work.
All programmatic access requires a free account sign-in at the platform's console.
Important Note
CourtRules explicitly states its content does not constitute legal advice. Users are instructed to confirm all rules directly with the official court source before submitting any filing or taking legal action.
