  3. [3]CourtListener authenticated helper attempted required base opinion query: "USS PC-1247" (limit 20) [other_primary]

    cl-auth-search.py stdout, 2026-10-03: 'authenticated request: type=o query_len=13' followed by '429 rate limited, backing off 5828s (attempt 1/6)'
    Finding type
    litigation_documented
    Finding
    No CourtListener result was received. The fleet-authenticated helper returned HTTP 429 and directed a 5,828-second backoff before the first required base query could complete. Under the batch stand-down rule, the remaining exact-name docket and hull-number opinion/docket queries were not run.

    Limitations
    This is an incomplete, rate-limited search result, not a finding that no litigation exists. No asbestos-qualified variants were run: the base query produced no result page or 20-result overflow to justify them. No litigation claim, product identification, exposure, causation, or disposition is established.
