Text of the federal court rules — Civil Procedure (FRCP), Evidence (FRE), Appellate Procedure (FRAP), Criminal Procedure (FRCrP) and Bankruptcy Procedure (FRBP) — with subdivision lookup such as FRCP 64(b), FRE 803(6) or FRAP 4(a)(1)(B).

Tools

• get_federal_rule(set, rule, subdivision?, include_notes?) — the full rule text, the requested subdivision on its own, the amendment credit line, and whether committee notes exist (returned when include_notes is true). An unknown rule or subdivision is an explicit not-found.
• list_federal_rules(set) — every rule in a set with its number and title, plus the “as amended to” date the publisher states.
• search_federal_rules(query, set?, limit?) — find rules by words in their title or number (titles only, not full text).
