{# Renders only for judges with FJC data populated. Falls through silently for entities (or judges) whose FJC sync has not run yet. #} {# Renders only when wikidata_data has substance to show. Each subsection is independently conditional, so a judge with only a Wikipedia link (no awards, no notable works) gets a clean compact card. #} {# Public disciplinary actions, sorted most-recent first. The "Discipline check" line appears even when an attorney is clean — that's a positive signal for clients evaluating counsel. #} {# Renders only when the entity has at least one BarAdmission row. Shows jurisdiction, status, and admission date with status-color coding. Discipline records (when added in a future iteration) will live in the same panel. #}
