"2026-nica-36"). Returns full metadata + pdf_url; text is always null and text_extracted is always false — see below.

Data sources
- — a Drupal Views listing.
Probed live 2026-09-18. Three real server-side facets exist: /judicial-decisions/date/ (also -), /judicial-decisions/type/ and /judicial-decisions/judiciary/, plus a keyword box (?query_decisions=). There is no court facet. The court a decision belongs to is only ever visible inside its neutral citation and, for most modern decisions, inside its own URL slug (/judicial-decisions/2026-nica-36). search_ni_decisions's court filter is therefore applied CLIENT-SIDE while paging the listing, not passed to the upstream as a query param — combine it with year to narrow a rare court quickly, since the per-call page budget is bounded (20 pages) and a rare court with no year given may need more pages than that to surface enough matches (the response's truncated/pages_scanned fields say so rather than reading as "no more decisions exist").
query_decisions is a genuine full-text search across the WHOLE corpus, not a court filter — searching "NICA"
