RECAP Promulgating Garbage Party/Attorney Data #262

Closed PlainSite closed 5 years ago

PlainSite commented 5 years ago

See, for example:

This case has hundreds of attorneys mostly from USDOJ who don't belong there. The JSON from Mike's new RECAP code is 20.4MB. The old XML was 1.4KB.

Same deal.

Thanks for filing this. I addressed it the day after you mentioned it on Twitter in this issue: https://github.com/freelawproject/courtlistener/issues/899. Now it's a matter of updating all the errant dockets, but that's taking longer.

PlainSite commented 5 years ago

Unclear if related or not, but some dockets, such as the 1.1GB (not a typo) JSON file here, continue to persist on the Internet Archive site and break importer code due to memory issues:

The same case's XML docket is 4.1MB.

Thanks, we can verify this after everything is re-uploaded, if desired. That's definitely not good.
