Citation text from the card

Case law rows include automatically extracted citation network data:

* **cases_cited** (outbound): Unique neutral citations (e.g., `2020 SCC 5`) detected in the decision's full text, listed in order of first appearance, with self-citations excluded. Cited cases are included whether or not they appear in the corpus (e.g., citations to decisions of courts we do not cover). The field is null when there is no text in that language.
* **cases_citing** (inbound): Cases in the corpus whose full text cites this decision's neutral citation. Inbound citations can only be detected for decisions that themselves have a neutral citation, so this field (and `citing_cases_count`) is null for decisions identified only by docket-style citations (e.g., CITT/TCCE dockets) or other non-neutral citations.
* **citing_cases_count**: The number of distinct cases in the corpus that cite this decision. A case citing both the English and French versions of a decision is counted once.

**Citation network limitations:**

* Extraction is based on pattern matching of neutral citations only. Citations using traditional reporters (e.g., `[1999] 2 S.C.R. 817`) are not captured, so decisions pre-dating neutral citations (generally pre-2000) are under-represented in the network, as are tribunals and courts that do not use neutral citations (e.g., CITT/TCCE).
* Inbound citation data (`cases_citing`, `citing_cases_count`) reflects only the corpus: citations from courts, tribunals, or time periods not covered by o
