Unfortunately our IP address has been blocked by namenlijst.rechtspraak.nl. Our current logic assumes that a judge that does not exist is a former judge; we never accounted for the situation in which the entire website bocks us. That results in all judges 'not existing' and becoming 'former judges'.
The logic flaw is located here: https://github.com/openstate/open-rechtspraak/blob/develop/app/scraper/people/enrich_people.py#L38. I'll work on a fix to prevent a block breaking the website, but that won't fix us being blocked whatsoever by namenlijst.rechtspraak.nl.
@siccovansas is aware of possible fixes to get the site up-and-running again. You should also reach out to the Rechtspraak to see if we can get an unblock.
Unfortunately we don't have an update yet, since our IP is still blocked by rechtspraak.nl.
Search is currently not yielding results, deeplinks to judges show incorrect information, it shows they are no longer active.
