Scrape Stretto for bankruptcy filings #2172

Open hughbe opened 2 years ago

hughbe commented 2 years ago

Stretto's court docket contains all the dockets for the Bankruptcy cases using their system.

For example, Celsius' bankruptcy dockets (https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/63590715/celsius-network-llc/) are uploaded to https://cases.stretto.com/celsius/court-docket/#search.

Would be interesting to scrape stretto (e.g. by subscribing to cases by email or through the web page) and extract docket files from the website.

What's Stretto?

hughbe commented 2 years ago

Stretto is a "technology and administrative-services partner providing consumer-bankruptcy and corporate-restructuring solutions to fiduciaries".

Basically, it lets bankruptcy cases manage their dockets, notices and claims.

All the dockets are published online - for example, https://cases.stretto.com/celsius/court-docket/#search

There are quite a lot of cases on stretto - if the platform could be scraped then some more documents could be uploaded to courtlistener RECAP

Ah ha. Yes, a crawler for their pages would be cool.
