LexAgent

Open a Dutch ruling by ECLI. Use overview for compact top-level structure, outline only to discover unknown sections, and structured or search_within for evidence. Prefer focused search over paging the entire ruling.

case-law-document

List the exact court (creator) and rechtsgebied (subject) values accepted by case-law-search, plus the document types. Call this to discover valid filter values; pass a court_query to narrow the (long) court list.

case-law-filters

Find Dutch case law in Rechtspraak open data by ECLI or metadata filters (court, rechtsgebied, document type, decision-date range). There is no free-text search. Use this to find an ECLI, then open case-law-document.

case-law-search

Open a raadsinformatie entity returned by council-search: a document (its extracted text, chunked per heading), a meeting (agenda with stukken per agendapunt, moties with uitslag, opnamen with transcript) or a motion (uitslag, stemmen per fractie and the text of the attached document). Use overview or outline to see the agenda or headings, structured for text, search_within for focused evidence. Content is what the council published, not authorised law.

council-document

List the gemeenten, provincies and waterschappen whose raadsinformatie council-search covers, with their source system, import state and newest meeting date, plus the entity types and sort orders it accepts. Call it when an organisation is not found or to check whether a council is covered at all.

council-filters

Full-text search in the raadsinformatie of Dutch gemeenten, provincies and waterschappen (OpenBesluitvorming: iBabs, Notubiz, GemeenteOplossingen, Parlaeus): raadsvoorstellen, moties and amendementen with their outcome and votes, besluitenlijsten, raadsbrieven, answered raadsvragen, meeting agendas and debate transcripts. This is decision-making context, not law: cite the binding rule from local-regulation-document or publication-document. Query words are ANDed; "quoted phrases" are supported.

council-search

Open a CJEU judgment, order or Advocate General opinion by ECLI (ECLI:EU:C:2020:559), CELEX (62018CJ0311) or case number (C-311/18), in Dutch when Cellar has it. overview returns the official abstract (legal points with "zie punten" pointers) when one exists; outline lists headings and numbered points; structured returns the points themselves. When the point is known, fetch it directly with point_reference ("42", "82-89", "dictum"). Dutch rulings (ECLI:NL:...) belong to case-law-document.

eu-case-law-document

List the values eu-case-law-search accepts: courts, document types, procedure codes (procjur), court formations, case-law subject-matter codes, and a Dutch term lookup into the CJEU classification (classification_query). Call it when a filter value is unknown; the identifier forms and default scope are included.

eu-case-law-filters

Find CJEU case law (Hof van Justitie and Gerecht, from EUR-Lex / Cellar) by Dutch title words, which cover the official keyword line and the parties ("notaris erfopvolging", "Schrems"), by ECLI or case number (C-311/18), or by the EU act a decision interprets (interprets = CELEX or act reference). Judgments and orders by default; add type=opinion for Advocate General opinions. Orders often have no text in Cellar: has_text says so per result. Not for Dutch case law (case-law-search) or EU legislation (eu-law-search). Returns ECLIs and CELEX numbers to open with eu-case-law-document.

eu-case-law-search

Open an EU regulation, directive, decision or treaty article by CELEX number or reference (e.g. "Verordening (EU) 2016/679", "artikel 101 VWEU"). Serves the latest consolidated Dutch text by default. Use overview for compact or top-level structure, outline only to discover unknown article references, and structured for evidence. When an article is known, fetch it directly with article_reference and skip overview/outline. Prefer this consolidated text over reconstructing current law from amendment publications.
