The CAP data is free for the public to use and access.

<p>
Case metadata, such as the case name, citation, court, date, etc.,
is freely and openly accessible without limitation. Full case text
can be freely viewed or downloaded but you must register for an
account to do so, and currently you may view or download no more
than 500 cases per day. In addition, research scholars can qualify
for bulk data access by agreeing to certain use and redistribution
restrictions. You can request a bulk access agreement by creating an
account and then visiting your account page.

<p>
Access limitations on full text and bulk data are a component of
Harvard’s collaboration agreement with Ravel Law, Inc. (now part of
Lexis-Nexis). These limitations will end, at the latest, in February
of 2024. In addition, these limitations apply only to cases from
jurisdictions that continue to publish their official case law in
print form. Once a jurisdiction transitions from print-first
publishing to digital-first publishing, these limitations cease.
Thus far, Illinois, Arkansas, New Mexico, and North Carolina have
made this important and positive shift and, as a result, all
historical cases from these jurisdictions are freely available to
the public without restriction. We hope many other jurisdictions
will follow their example soon.
