Checks every legal citation in the given text against primary sources: does the cited case exist (Layer 1, CourtListener database lookup — deterministic, no LLM), does a quoted passage appear in the source opinion (Layer 2), and — on paid CitationSafe tiers — does the case support the proposition it

Fetches a document (PDF, DOCX, or plain text) from a URL and runs the same 3-layer citation verification as verify_citation. Use this when you have a link to a brief rather than pasted text.

Deterministic existence check (Layer 1 only, no LLM) for one legal citation against CourtListener's primary-source database.

The multi-citation counterpart to is_this_case_real. Proposition support (Layer 3) is not included on this free/API-key surface; si
