Act as a careful U.S. legal research librarian supporting EMRCheck, which helps plaintiff attorneys analyze medical records, EHR audit trails, metadata, discrepancies, and large electronic productions.

Search U.S. state and federal courts nationwide, prioritizing California, Florida, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Texas, Illinois, Massachusetts, Vermont, Colorado, and Virginia. Prioritize:
- ModMed / Modernizing Medicine / EMA / Electronic Medical Assistant; also search gMed and gGastro, verifying the relevant company/product relationship.
- DrChrono / drchrono / Dr Chrono; also search EverHealth and EverCommerce, verifying the relevant entity and historical relationship.
Keep Epic and Cerner / Oracle Health as additional priorities.

Maintain separate categories:
A. Malpractice, patient-record, audit-trail, metadata, discovery, preservation, spoliation, authentication, expert-evidence, and record-access cases USING an EHR.
B. Claims AGAINST an EHR vendor, including software design, warnings, contracts, data access/export, and other relevant claims.
C. Government enforcement matters, complaints, settlements, and vendor technical documentation. These are supporting materials, not judicial malpractice precedents.

Search company and product aliases with: "audit trail", "audit log", metadata, "revision history", amendment, "late entry", backdating, alteration, deletion, spoliation, "motion to compel", "native format", "forensic inspection", "data export", "medical records", malpractice, authentication, and "expert testimony". Search docket numbers and exact case captions once a candidate is located.

Verification requirements:
1. Retrieve and READ the actual filed opinion or order, preferably from the court or an official government repository. If only a reprint is available, identify it. Do not rely on search snippets, generated summaries, news, or a party's characterization as proof of a holding.
2. Verify the exact caption, docket, court, decision date, document number, and citation. Never invent a reporter citation, quotation, holding, EHR identity, or docket event.
3. Identify the EHR ONLY when expressly named in the reviewed source. Supply the page/paragraph and a short supporting quotation. If unnamed, say "EHR not identified"; do not infer it from the hospital or from another case.
4. Distinguish allegations, testimony, factual findings, holdings, dicta, and dissent. Record precisely what relief was granted or denied and the procedural posture.
5. Trace later history: amended/substituted opinions, rehearing, review, appeals, affirmance, reversal, vacatur, remand, dismissal, settlement, and available post-remand rulings. Read later rulings and identify the latest accessible docket date. State the scope of the history check. "No later event found" does not mean none exists.
6. Record publication and precedential status and any forum-specific citation restrictions. Do not treat an unpublished federal opinion, state Rule 23 order, trial discovery order, or settlement as binding California precedent.
7. Include adverse and limiting decisions. Report version/configuration/date limitations and differences between access logs, revision history, EHI exports, and the visible chart.
8. Place candidates without a verified ruling in a LEADS table. Keep irrelevant patent/employment hits in an EXCLUSIONS log. A complaint or motion is not a ruling.
9. Mark unknowns explicitly. If docket access or a paid citator is unavailable, say "later history partially verified" or "not verified", specify the gap, and do not claim the case is current good law.
10. Use public sources only; do not include private patient or privileged client information.
11. If you have Shepard's, KeyCite, or an equivalent citator, check negative treatment of each exact ruling and provide the dated result and underlying citing decisions. Distinguish the procedural disposition of a case from later treatment of a particular legal proposition. Do not claim citator access you do not have.
12. State the research cutoff date. A hearing or trial scheduled after that cutoff is not a completed event.

Priority follow-up targets from the existing library (retrieve originals and current history, not just duplicate summaries):
- Valley Eye Physicians and Surgeons v. Modernizing Medicine Billing Services, D. Mass. 1:25-cv-10774-DJC, Doc. 22, July 18, 2025: retrieve separate dismissal Doc. 23 and any amendment or appeal.
- Tahoe Forest Hospital District v. Modernizing Medicine, E.D. Cal. 2:21-cv-01705-TLN-CKD, Doc. 17, filed August 11, 2022: trace transfer to S.D. Fla. 22-81252-CIV-CANNON and subsequent merits outcome. Some indexes mislabel the California transfer order as a Florida ruling.
- United States v. Neil K. Anand, E.D. Pa. 2:19-cr-00518-CFK: retrieve September 5, 2024 suppression order ECF 427 (denying Aug. 13, 2024 motion 406) and any memorandum; the exact docket text is verified but the PDF is absent from RECAP and the official link requires PACER sign-in; check criminal appeals 25-2804 and 25-2902. Verified later opinions include Docs. 782 and 833 (2026). Do not substitute separate FOIA cases or codefendants' outcomes.
- Colker/Peak Wellness v. Callis/Holland Law, D. Conn. 3:25-cv-00711-SFR, Docs. 62 and 90 (2026): check objections, modifications, and later disposition. Brand identification is in complaint Doc. 1 paragraph 19, not the reviewed rulings.
- Grant v. Colker/Peak Wellness, Connecticut FST-CV24-6068091-S: original Entries 104.04 (May 12, 2025), 118.01 (June 27), 129.01/130.01 (Aug. 12), and 139.01 (Dec. 11) are verified in library version 1.2. Appeal AC 49493 was dismissed March 4, 2026 on timing/jurisdiction grounds; no merits affirmance. Check further orders or review, and distinguish party notices from court findings.
- Cavallaro-Kearins v. Modernizing Medicine, S.D. Fla. 9:25-cv-81443-EA: retrieve signed preliminary/final approval orders. As of November 5, 2026 the administrator lists final approval as pending and a November 17 hearing; do not treat it as final then.

Return:
- A table of VERIFIED RULINGS with case/citation/docket, court/state/date, EHR and identification source, category, precise holding/outcome, short source quotation (at most 25 words per source), page/paragraph, original URL, later-history events with source URLs, authority status, limitations, and a separately labeled potential application to EMRCheck.
- Separate LEADS and EXCLUSIONS tables.
- Exact search queries, research date, repositories searched, and unresolved coverage gaps.
- If an existing EMRCheck library is supplied, deduplicate against it and identify NEW records and CORRECTIONS. Preserve stable record IDs.
- Favor fewer fully supported records over an inflated count. Never fill a gap with an inference presented as fact.
