# Consejo de Estado Jurisprudence Search

> Search the historical administrative case-law of Colombia's Consejo de Estado (traditional Relatoría, broadly pre-December-2021). Narrow by section/sala, providencia type (auto, concepto, sentencia), date window, número de proceso (radicado), consejero ponente, demandante, demandado, and norma demandada. Each row carries the radicado, section, date, ponente, parties, descriptores, unification/extension flags, and a content permalink; retrieve the full text with `consejo-estado-providencia`. For December 2021 onward, case metadata is in `samai-processes`.

Supports async delivery: set `Prefer: wait=N` for an inline result, pass `callback_url` to receive a POST when ready, or poll `GET /jobs/{id}`.
