Laws as JSON

code.json.zip
This is the basic data about every law, one JSON file per law. Fields include section, catch line, text, history, and structural ancestry (i.e., title number/name and chapter number/name). Note that any sections that contain colons (e.g., § 8.01-581.12:2) have an underscore in place of the colon in the filename, because neither Windows nor Mac OS support colons in filenames.

Laws as Plain Text

code.txt.zip
This is the basic data about every law, one plain text file per law. Note that any sections that contain colons (e.g., § 8.01-581.12:2) have an underscore in place of the colon in the filename, because neither Windows nor Mac OS support colons in filenames.

Dictionary as JSON

dictionary.json.zip
All terms defined in the laws, with each term’s definition, the section in which it is defined, and the scope (section, chapter, title, global) of that definition.
