fix(pa-courts): Update precedential statuses #992

Closed flooie closed 1 month ago

flooie commented 5 months ago

PR addresses incorrect statuses for the commonwealth court and the superior court. The default to set everything to published was incorrect.

the rules make that clear enough here

This PR simply changes the superior court to unpublished - and checks the content of the opinion in the PA Commonwealth Court to establish precedential status.

Do we have script or code to fix the existing content? Probably the right way to do that these days would be to hand something off to Ramiro.

flooie commented 5 months ago

What does hand off to Ramiro look like to you?

mlissner commented 5 months ago

You give him some code to run? Can be a script or a code dump?

mlissner commented 5 months ago

The larger idea is that such a handoff should happen in an issue (this one, probably), and then:

we'll have a memorialization of whatever code is run
you get the advantage of not having to run/monitor code
he has the burden (and job!) of optimizing running code for folks
long term, we get better at this stuff!

this PR should be unnecessary when PA dynamic backscraper is approved
