Case law is cited by various types of identifiers: neutral citation numbers, vendor specific identifiers, triples of court name, judgment date and case number, in all possible combinations and spelling variants.

This paper discusses a solution to recognize, normalize and deduplicate case law citations in unstructured documents.
