docs(t-paliad-208): legal-citation backfill proposal for 130 deadline_rules

Researcher draft for Workstream A — per-rule proposals for rule_code +
legal_source on the 130 active+published deadline_rules with rule_code IS
NULL. Grouped by proceeding (53 PT rows) and orphan-bucket (77 rows with
proceeding_type_id IS NULL).

~75 HIGH/MED proposals, ~47 FLAG entries pending m's call (court-set
event-markers, combined-pleading rows, ambiguous orphans, RoP
sub-paragraph spot-checks). Profiles the field convention from the 83
already-populated rows. READ-ONLY phase: no DB writes, no migration yet
— mig 097 follows once m signs off.

Side-fix candidate: normalize the one outlier RoP.49.1 -> RoP.049.1 on
rev.defence as part of mig 097.

# Legal-citation Backfill Proposals — t-paliad-208 (Workstream A)
**Date:** 2026-05-18
**Author:** huygens (researcher)
**Status:** DRAFT — for m's review, not yet migrated
**Branch:** `mai/huygens/workstream-a-backfill`
**Adjacent:** parallel-track with t-paliad-209 (workstream B — `code` rename + UI cleanup; different fields, no overlap)
**Successor:** mig 097 will UPDATE the rows m approves; backup snapshot `deadline_rules_pre_097`

## 0. Read-this-first
### 0.1 What this doc is
Today's audit (paliadin/head, 2026-05-18) found that **130 of 213 active+published rows in `paliad.deadline_rules`** have `rule_code IS NULL`, and 122 have `legal_source IS NULL`. The internal slug field `code` (e.g. `inf.sod`, `de_null.berufung`) had been mistaken for a legal citation; it is just the per-proceeding submission identifier. The actual RoP / ZPO / EPÜ / PatG / UPCA citation belongs in `rule_code` (display form) + `legal_source` (structured locator).
This document proposes a citation per rule. m approves; head re-tasks for migration 097.
### 0.2 Field convention (profiled from the 83 already-populated rows)
| Field | Purpose | Examples from live data |
|---|---|---|
| `rule_code` | **Human display form**, what we'd write in a brief | `§ 276 ZPO`, `§ 110 PatG`, `Art. 99 EPÜ`, `R. 71(3) EPÜ`, `R. 116 EPÜ`, `RPBA Art. 12`, `RoP.029.a`, `RoP.220.1.a`, `RoP.151`, `RoP.49.1` |
| `legal_source` | **Structured locator** (forum-prefixed, no zero padding) for cross-system joins / lex extraction | `DE.ZPO.276.1`, `DE.PatG.111.1`, `EU.EPÜ.108`, `EU.EPC-R.71.3`, `EU.RPBA.12.1.c`, `UPC.RoP.29.a`, `UPC.RoP.220.1` |
**Sub-conventions observed in live data**
- `legal_source` prefixes: `DE.<statute>.<n>.<para>`, `EU.EPÜ.<n>.<para>`, `EU.EPC-R.<n>.<para>`, `EU.RPBA.<n>.<para>.<letter>`, `UPC.RoP.<n>.<sub>`.
- `rule_code` padding for UPC RoP is **inconsistent today**: rules below 100 are mostly 3-digit padded (`RoP.029.a`, `RoP.030.1`, `RoP.049.2.a`, `RoP.056.1`) but `rev.defence` carries an un-padded `RoP.49.1`. Rules ≥100 are never padded (`RoP.137.2`, `RoP.220.1`).
- **Proposed normalization:** 3-digit pad for rules <100, no pad for 100. mig 097 should also normalize `RoP.49.1 → RoP.049.1` (1 outlier row, `rev.defence`) as a side-fix. m to confirm.
- `legal_source` for UPC RoP **never** pads (`UPC.RoP.29.a`, not `UPC.RoP.029.a`). I follow that.
### 0.3 Triage philosophy — events vs. deadlines
Of the 130 NULL-rule_code rows, 53 carry a `proceeding_type_id` and 77 are orphans (`proceeding_type_id IS NULL`, also `code IS NULL`). Within the proceeding-typed bucket, most are **event markers** (zero `duration_value`, `event_type ∈ {hearing, decision, filing}`) that anchor other deadlines rather than computing one of their own.
I classify each row as one of:
| Category | Treatment | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| **Deadline** (positive duration, fires off an anchor) | Cite the operative procedural norm. Confidence usually HIGH. | `inf.sod` Klageerwiderung 3 months RoP.23 |
| **Constitutive event** (zero duration, but a statute defines it) | Cite the constitutive norm (matches existing convention: `de_inf.klage` already has `DE.ZPO.253`). Confidence HIGH where the norm is canonical. | Klageerhebung § 253 ZPO; Anmeldung EP Art. 75 EPÜ; Klage UPC RoP.13.1 |
| **Service / trigger event** (zero duration, third-party delivery) | Cite the service norm 317 ZPO etc.) with MEDIUM confidence these are anchor events for downstream timers, not deadlines on a party. m may prefer NULL here. **FLAG.** | `de_inf_olg.urteil_lg` Zustellung LG-Urteil |
| **Court-scheduled event** (hearing, judgment-issuance) | Either NULL (recommended) or cite the general norm authorising the court to schedule. **FLAG.** | Mündliche Verhandlung BGH; OLG-Urteil |
| **Court-set duration** (positive duration but `is_court_set=true`, or local practice) | Cite the framing norm (e.g. § 273 ZPO for ZPO patent practice), MEDIUM, FLAG. | `de_inf.replik` 4 weeks (LG patent practice) |
**Where I am proposing NULL**, the row stays as-is on the DB side (mig 097 simply doesn't touch it). The FLAG list at the bottom of this doc enumerates every NULL proposal so m can override with an explicit citation if desired.
### 0.4 Counts
- 130 rows in scope (rule_code IS NULL; is_active=true; lifecycle_state='published')
- 53 proceeding-typed + 77 orphan (no proceeding_type_id, no code)
- 8 rows already carry a `legal_source` those are **easy wins**: only `rule_code` needs proposing
- ~ 40 HIGH-confidence proposals
- ~ 35 MEDIUM-confidence proposals
- ~ 55 FLAG entries (court-scheduled events, combined-pleading rows, ambiguous orphans)
The orphan bucket carries a noticeable number of **duplicates** (six "Mängelbeseitigung / Zahlung" rows, two "Beginn des Hauptsacheverfahrens", two "Antrag auf Patentänderung", etc.). Those are likely vestiges of older Fristenrechner pipelines; backfilling them with the same citation is fine, but m may want a separate dedup pass (out of scope here; flag in § 4).

## 1. Easy wins — rows with `legal_source` already set, `rule_code` missing (8)
For these, the structured locator is already in the DB; only the display form is missing.
| id | code / name | duration | existing `legal_source` | proposed `rule_code` | conf |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `1f532c82…` | `de_inf.klage` / Klageerhebung | event | `DE.ZPO.253` | `§ 253 ZPO` | HIGH |
| `20254f4e…` | (orphan) Einspruch gegen Versäumnisurteil | 2 weeks | `DE.ZPO.339.1` | `§ 339 ZPO` | HIGH |
| `3c36f149…` | (orphan) Schriftsatznachreichung 296a ZPO) | 3 weeks | `DE.ZPO.296a` | `§ 296a ZPO` | HIGH |
| `f1099cf6…` | (orphan) Weiterbehandlungsantrag (Art. 121 EPÜ) | 2 months | `EU.EPC-R.135.1` | `R. 135 EPÜ` | HIGH |
| `c24d494c…` | (orphan) Wiedereinsetzungsantrag 123 PatG) | 2 months | `DE.PatG.123.2` | `§ 123 PatG` | HIGH |
| `d40d9be7…` | (orphan) Wiedereinsetzungsantrag 233 ZPO) | 2 weeks | `DE.ZPO.234.1` | `§ 234 ZPO` | HIGH |
| `23c6f445…` | (orphan) Wiedereinsetzungsantrag (Art. 122 EPÜ) | 2 months | `EU.EPC-R.136.1` | `R. 136 EPÜ` | HIGH |
| `b588fa64…` | (orphan) Wiedereinsetzungsantrag (DPMA) | 2 months | `DE.PatG.123.2` | `§ 123 PatG` | HIGH |
**Naming note on the two Wiedereinsetzung-`§ 123 PatG` rows.** Both `c24d494c…` ("§ 123 PatG" name) and `b588fa64…` ("DPMA" name) map to the same statute § 123 PatG (Wiedereinsetzung) applies to all DPMA-Verfahren, so the duplication is a pure naming choice. mig 097 fills both; potential dedup is a separate question 4 FLAG-A).
---
## 2. Proceeding-typed rows (53)
Grouped by `proceeding_types.code`. Within each group: alphabetical by `code`.
### 2.1 `upc.inf.cfi` — Verletzungsverfahren CFI (4 rules)
| code | name | duration | event_type | proposed `rule_code` | proposed `legal_source` | source-of-truth | conf |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `inf.decision` | Entscheidung | event | decision | *(NULL)* | *(NULL)* | RoP.118 but this is the court's own decision, not a party deadline | **FLAG-B** |
| `inf.interim` | Zwischenverfahren | event | hearing | *(NULL)* | *(NULL)* | RoP.101 ff. governs interim procedure; not a single norm | **FLAG-B** |
| `inf.oral` | Mündliche Verhandlung | event | hearing | *(NULL)* | *(NULL)* | RoP.111-117 (oral procedure); court-scheduled | **FLAG-B** |
| `inf.soc` | Klageerhebung (Statement of claim) | event | filing | `RoP.013.1` | `UPC.RoP.13.1` | RoP.13 Statement of claim contents | HIGH |
### 2.2 `upc.rev.cfi` — Nichtigkeitsverfahren CFI (6 rules)
| code | name | duration | event_type | proposed `rule_code` | proposed `legal_source` | source-of-truth | conf |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `rev.app` | Nichtigkeitsklage | event | filing | `RoP.042` | `UPC.RoP.42` | RoP.42 Statement for revocation | HIGH |
| `rev.decision` | Entscheidung | event | decision | *(NULL)* | *(NULL)* | court-issued, not a party deadline | **FLAG-B** |
| `rev.interim` | Zwischenverfahren | event | hearing | *(NULL)* | *(NULL)* | not a single norm | **FLAG-B** |
| `rev.oral` | Mündliche Verhandlung | event | hearing | *(NULL)* | *(NULL)* | court-scheduled | **FLAG-B** |
| `rev.reply` | Replik | 2 months | filing | `RoP.052` | `UPC.RoP.52` | RoP.52 Reply to defence in revocation | MED (**FLAG-C**: duration vs. norm) |
| `rev.rejoin` | Duplik | 2 months | filing | `RoP.052` | `UPC.RoP.52` | RoP.52 Rejoinder | MED (**FLAG-C**: duration vs. norm) |
**FLAG-C:** RoP.52(1) sets the reply to 2 months but RoP.52(2) sets the rejoinder to 1 month from service of the reply. m's `rev.rejoin` says 2 months verify whether the rule duration is correct or whether `RoP.52.2` (1 month) is the right citation. Cross-check with the existing `rev.rejoin_cci` row which uses RoP.056.4 (cci context); the main-pleadings rejoinder lives in RoP.52.

## 3. Orphan rows — `proceeding_type_id IS NULL` and `code IS NULL` (77)
Identified by `id` (UUID first 8 chars) + name. These are the older Fristenrechner catalogue rows that pre-date the proceeding-typed slice and were never re-anchored to a proceeding. Many are 1:1 duplicates of rules that now live in proceeding-typed form.

## 4. FLAG summary — items needing m's call
| FLAG | Topic | Count | Decision needed |
|---|---|---|---|
| **A** | Genuine duplicate orphan rows (same name + dur + citation) | ~10 | Confirm the dedup pass should happen in mig 097 (or a follow-up). Recommended: leave duplicates in place for mig 097 (fills all of them with the same citation); dedup separately so the rule-resolution semantics don't drift. |
| **B** | Court-scheduled / court-issued event rows (Mündliche Verhandlung, Urteil, Entscheidung) | ~22 | Confirm NULL is the right default. Alternative: cite the framing norm with a "context" note. |
| **C** | UPC RoP duration vs. norm mismatch (`rev.reply` / `rev.rejoin` / `app.response`) | 3 | Verify the rule durations are correct as stored proposed citations are canonical but rule duration may be from an older RoP version. |
| **D** | German LG patent practice: 4-week replik/duplik (court-set) | 2 | Confirm `§ 273 ZPO` is the cite m wants (no statutory period, framing norm only). |
| **E** | Service / trigger-event citations (`§ 317 ZPO`, `R. 111 EPÜ` etc.) | 6 | These are anchor-events for downstream timers, not deadlines. Confirm whether to cite (current proposal) or leave NULL. |
| **F** | Combined-pleading orphan rows (one row = several norms) | 5 | Confirm one citation is acceptable, or whether the rows should be split before mig 097 (out of scope here). |
| **G** | Twin "Antrag auf Patentänderung" orphans (2-mo, identical name) | 2 | Confirm one is infringement-context (`RoP.30.1`), the other revocation-context (`RoP.49.2.a`). |
| **H** | RoP sub-paragraph uncertainty (current text vs. older version) | ~8 | Spot-check against current published RoP; my citations are canonical but small `.x` numbers may need a tweak. |
| **I** | Negative-declaration track (no single UPC norm) | 3 | Confirm citing `RoP.69` (procedure-by-analogy) vs. leaving NULL. |
| **J** | Orphan with unclear scope | 3 | `d124c95b…` (Aufhebung Entscheidung des Amtes), `002c2ba7…` (Folgemaßnahmen Validitätsentscheidung), `902cc5d5…` (Klärung Übersetzungsfragen). m to identify which UPC norm. |
---
## 5. Side-fix (recommend bundled in mig 097)
**RoP-display normalization**: `rev.defence` currently carries `rule_code = "RoP.49.1"`. All other RoP rules under 100 use 3-digit padding (`RoP.029.a`, `RoP.049.2.a` etc.). mig 097 should normalize `RoP.49.1 → RoP.049.1` in that one row, while filling the 130 NULL rows with consistently padded values.
```sql
-- side-fix candidate
UPDATE paliad.deadline_rules
SET rule_code = 'RoP.049.1'
WHERE rule_code = 'RoP.49.1'
AND code = 'rev.defence'; -- only one row; idempotent
```
This is opt-in; m to confirm before mig 097 ships.
---
## 6. Migration 097 hints (for the coder who writes it)
**Shape m has asked for:**
- `UPDATE paliad.deadline_rules SET rule_code = …, legal_source = … WHERE id = … AND rule_code IS NULL AND legal_source IS [NULL|expected];`
- Idempotent: `WHERE rule_code IS NULL` (or `IS DISTINCT FROM`) guard so re-applying is a no-op.
- Backup snapshot: `CREATE TABLE paliad.deadline_rules_pre_097 AS SELECT * FROM paliad.deadline_rules` before any UPDATEs.
- Wrap in `audit_reason = 't-paliad-208 legal-citation backfill'` (matches `paliad.audit_log` pattern used elsewhere).
- Touch only the m-approved rows from § 1, § 2, § 3 FLAG rows (those with `*(NULL)*` in the proposed columns) stay untouched until m resolves them.
- Side-fix § 5 (`RoP.49.1 → RoP.049.1`) only if m confirms.
**Counts the migration should match (assuming m approves all HIGH proposals as-is):**
- Easy wins 1): 8 `rule_code` UPDATEs (legal_source already set)
- Proceeding-typed HIGH/MED proposals 2): ~25 rows
- Orphan HIGH/MED proposals 3): ~50 rows
- Total expected `rule_code` writes: ~83 rows
- Total expected `legal_source` writes: ~75 rows (8 of the easy wins already have one)
- FLAG rows left NULL: ~47 rows pending m's decisions
---
## 7. Open questions for m
1. **NULL for event-markers (FLAG-B):** confirm NULL is correct for the 22 court-scheduled / court-issued event rows. If m wants citations there too, I'll do a second pass.
2. **Trigger-event citations (FLAG-E):** apply `§ 317 ZPO` to LG/OLG service rows, or leave NULL?
3. **Duplicates (FLAG-A):** mig 097 fills duplicates with the same citation; do you want a separate dedup pass scheduled (filing `t-paliad-21x`) or is the duplicate count acceptable for now?
4. **Combined-pleading orphans (FLAG-F):** keep one citation per row, or split each row into N rows before mig 097?
5. **Negative-declaration track (FLAG-I):** cite `RoP.69` by analogy, or leave NULL?
6. **Side-fix (§ 5):** normalize the one `RoP.49.1` outlier as part of mig 097?
Once m answers, head can re-task this same worker (or a fresh coder) to write mig 097 against the approved proposals.
