Authority candidates are grouped by motion family, jurisdiction label, citation-velocity posture, and source record.
Source records: e3-b9-cl-opinion-bodies, e3-c3-citation-velocity
Defense attorneys preparing motion hearings, reply briefs, and oral argument.
Suppression and Daubert authority candidates, shown as a source register before checkout.
Motion-family authority maps for suppression, Brady/Giglio, Daubert, speedy trial, severance, detention, and outcome patterns.
Select the motion family, jurisdiction, and factual posture and get authority already sequenced into the motion structure, lead controlling authority, supporting authority, the government's likely response map, and jurisdiction notes, every case linked to its CourtListener opinion with quote context. The government's likely response to each authority is mapped alongside it, so you're briefing against their reply, not discovering it after they file. Weak or unverifiable authority is held back as a labeled gap, not dressed up as a finding.
Preview structure
What renders now is the source-backed skeleton, not a paid generated brief.
Motion-rate cues are labeled as appellate-opinion indicators rather than trial-court grant probabilities.
Source records: e3-c4-motion-outcome-rates, e3-c5-motion-outcome-circuit
Forensic modules remain tied to discipline-specific validity sources before they can be used in a paid generated brief.

Source appendix
Every preview claim points to a source URL or source record.
CourtListener criminal opinion text corpus
The preview is designed around the existing criminal opinion text corpus described in the BenchRecon data inventory.
docs/recon/e3-data-inventory.md#B9 cl_opinion_bodies [source]
Citation velocity derivative
The preview treats rising or fading authority as a source-backed signal that still requires quote-context review.
docs/recon/e3-data-inventory.md#C3 citation_velocity_criminal [source]
Motion outcome rate derivative
Motion-rate rows are preview context only and are not represented as trial-court grant predictions.
docs/recon/e3-data-inventory.md#C4 motion_outcome_rates [source]
Circuit-conditioned motion outcome derivative
Circuit labels must remain attached to every motion-rate cue before any paid brief is enabled.
docs/recon/e3-data-inventory.md#C5 motion_outcome_rates_by_circuit [source]
PCAST forensic validity report
Forensic-reliability modules cite PCAST only as a sourced authority record; counsel must verify jurisdiction-specific admissibility treatment.
