How this directory is built. Court structure is static and reflects the Indiana Judicial Branch + 28 U.S.C. § 94. Live counts come from GET /api/public/sij/appellate-opinions (state appellate totals) and GET /api/public/civic/sij-recent (recent activity across all five systems). Trial-court coverage (circuit / superior / problem-solving courts) is on the schema-fill roadmap; see /methodology.
