Description
This dataset of German court cases is obtained from OpenLegalData. The data received clearly mentioned information such as court, level of appeal, and ECLI (European Case Law Identifier). However, tenor, tatbestand, gründe, and entscheidungsgründe were available only in HTML format. Out of over 100000 extracted cases, we were able to parse 43337 HTML only due to structural problems with HTML content.
The resulting dataset is approximate ~1.1 GBs with 43337 rows and has the following 12 features:
