The litigation collection is a separate index in CLAIMS Direct which is accessed through the /litigation/search/query API endpoint. Information about the API can be found here: Litigation. Because it is a separate index, the litigation collection is not accessible through CDWI.

The following table describes the searchable and facetable fields available in the litigation index.
