Swiss Supreme Court

This is a LegalHack@OKCon 2013 challenge from Florian Ducommun, Creative Commons Switzerland.

Create a better search engine by keywords and law articles for the website of the Swiss Supreme Court.

Currently, searching jurisprudence through Google is more efficient than through the Swiss Supreme Court website, which actually gives business to a company like Swisslex which charges prohibitive fees for making an efficient jurisprudential research.

Since jurisprudence is supposed to be known by everybody, an efficient search engine is a mandatory tool for democracy and goes along with the open data philosophy.

  1. Enable the use of search by filters
  2. Implement search by law articles
  3. Implement search by keywords
