Abstract
[1] When law professionals are referring to a case in their pleadings, lectures or commentaries, they often refer to a case simply by using the surname of the main party involved in the case. They can do this because in a given context, referring to a surname often suffices to identify a specific case. For example, in the context of Charter litigation, every Canadian lawyer knows what the Oakes case is about. This intuitive and informal mean of identifying a case has been common practice since the very beginning of case law reporting. Modern citations to cases still include such a case name, often called “style of cause ” in Canada1. [2] Not so long ago, the case name was one of the few tools law researchers could use to locate and track cases in printed reports2. In the early 80’s, the lack of consistency of the case name among publishers was considered a major impediment for case identification and retrieval3, and thus for the reliability of legal research4. [3] In 1987, in an effort to improve case naming uniformity, Canadian law publishers gathered together through the Canadian Law Information Council (“CLIC”) and developed the Standards for Case Identification5. These “CLIC Standards ” provided a

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
