We expect only a few minutes of downtime, during which search and analysis may be temporarily unavailable. No action is needed on your part, and your data is unaffected. Thank you for your patience. Scheduled database maintenance https://status.lawcite.app/incident/903797 Sun, 24 May 2026 01:30:00 -0000 https://status.lawcite.app/incident/903797#8bf6a5b190d930f2bbde974024c936ea012b862f673d3564f5129a0ca5896be3 We're applying a routine database schema update to LawCite as part of a planned release. The migration runs automatically during deployment and should complete within a few minutes. You may see brief, intermittent errors on the web app or API for up to a minute during the changeover. No user data is affected and no action is needed on your end. Thanks for your patience. Service Outage https://status.lawcite.app/incident/900267 Wed, 20 May 2026 02:55:00 -0000 https://status.lawcite.app/incident/900267#7c82ec60598f61a3893d6974c631c62d1644d58e3c87633d0a733b826e815c77 All LawCite services are fully restored. Railway has closed their incident and published a postmortem. The outage was caused by Google Cloud incorrectly suspending Railway's production account via an automated action — an error that affected many GCP customers simultaneously. The suspension took Railway's control plane offline, which cascaded to all workloads across their entire network, including regions not hosted on Google Cloud. Total impact window for LawCite: approximately 22:20 UTC May 19 to ~02:55 UTC May 20 (~4.5 hours of full unavailability). Railway has outlined architectural changes underway to prevent a single provider action from cascading platform-wide in the future. We will continue to evaluate our infrastructure dependencies as Railway makes those improvements. Service Outage https://status.lawcite.app/incident/900267 Wed, 20 May 2026 01:41:00 -0000 https://status.lawcite.app/incident/900267#f7a1a1f172e090f4b7f53f56abbbf1daaeeb7cf543588be535010449940489bd LawCite services are back online as of earlier today. Railway has recovered compute on Google Cloud, though their underlying networking incident with Google Cloud remains open and unresolved. We are keeping this status active and monitoring closely until Railway closes their incident. There is a possibility of further disruption while the root cause is fully remediated. We will update this page if service is impacted again or when Railway confirms full resolution. Service Outage https://status.lawcite.app/incident/900267 Tue, 19 May 2026 22:30:00 -0000 https://status.lawcite.app/incident/900267#02dc335d40430ea2a8c5f04a666ca5a5177a1471cba09db4011c6564fae58b91 All LawCite services are currently offline. This is caused by a major infrastructure outage at Railway, our hosting provider, which is in turn caused by Google Cloud blocking Railway's account access. Railway is in direct contact with Google Cloud's support team and has confirmed the cause — restoration is underway, but no ETA has been provided. This is entirely outside our control and we are monitoring Railway's status page closely. We will update this status as soon as Railway confirms services are restored.
