Add innumerable new courts to CourtListener (DB Only) #1210

Open mlissner opened 4 years ago

mlissner commented 4 years ago

While working on freelawproject/courts-db, @flooie has "discovered" and a metric ton of new courts that we didn't previously have content from. These need to get added to our database. Once the courts are in the DB, we also need to update the court picker to at least have three even columns for the state courts (these are hardcoded to have similar lengths).

Eventually, we'll need to upgrade our court picker to be better in general. It could handle 400 courts kinda OK, but this will probably push it beyond any reason.

See #1230 for integration of the courts DB into CourtListener and #1231 for the UI part of this.

The UI part of this is now tracked in https://github.com/freelawproject/courtlistener/issues/1243 and needs to be resolved before we can add 300 new courts.
