Target lemma: organization
Target surface form: organizations
Context:
In attendance was, among others, Mitch McConnell, the Senate's top Republican and an avowed opponent of the healthcare law. The featured guests at the dinner? Scalia and Thomas. It's nothing new: The two justices have been attending Federalist Society events for years. And it's nothing that runs afoul of ethics rules. In fact, justices are exempt from the Code of Conduct that governs the actions of lower federal justices. If they were, they arguably fell under code's Canon 4C, which states, "A judge may attend fund-raising events of law-related and other <t>organizations</t> although the judge may not be a speaker, a guest of honor, or featured on the program of such an event." Nevertheless, the sheer proximity of Scalia and Thomas to two of the law firms in the case, as well as to a company with a massive financial interest, was enough to alarm ethics-in-government activists.

    *   Surrounding context: Mentions of "justices" (Scalia and Thomas), "ethics rules", "Code of Conduct", "lower federal justices", "judge", "law firms", "financial interest", "breach of ethics", "court".

    *   Sense 4: "a comprehensive term for any proceeding in a court of law whereby an individual seeks a legal remedy | synonyms=lawsuit, suit, cause, causa". This fits perfectly.

The featured guests at the dinner? Scalia and Thomas. It's nothing new: The two justices have been attending Federalist Society events for years. And it's nothing that runs afoul of ethics rules. In fact, justices are exempt from the Code of Conduct that governs the actions of lower federal justices. If they were, they arguably fell under code's Canon 4C, which states, "A judge may attend fund-raising events of law-related and other organizations although the judge may not be a speaker, a guest of honor, or featured on the program of such an event." Nevertheless, the sheer proximity of Scalia and Thomas to two of the law firms in the case, as well as to a <t>company</t> with a massive financial interest, was enough to alarm ethics-in-government activists. "This stunning breach of ethics and indifference to the code belies claims by several justices that the court abides by the same rules that apply to all other federal judges," said Bob Edgar, the president of Common Cause.

    *   Meaning in context: The speaker (Bob Edgar) is criticizing the justices for ignoring or not caring about the ethics code. It's a "lack of concern" or "disregard" for the rules.

    *   Sense 1: `indifference%1:12:01::` - apathy demonstrated by an absence of emotional reactions (emotionlessness, impassivity). (Too focused on emotional state/flat affect).
    *   Sense 2: `indifference%1:12:00::` - unbiased impartial unconcern. (This is a positive or neutral sense, like being an impartial judge. Not applicable here).
    *   Sense 3: `indifference%1:07:01::` - the trait of remaining calm and seeming not to care; a casual lack of concern (nonchalance, unconcern). (Fits well: a lack of concern for the rules).
    *   Sense 4: `indifference%1:07:00::` - the trait of lacking enthusiasm for or interest in things generally (apathy, numbness). (Too general; this is about a general state of being, not a specific disregard for a code).

    *   The context is about a "breach of ethics" and "indifference to the code."
    *   This implies a disregard or a lack of concern for the rules.
    *   Sense 3 ("a casual lack of concern") fits the context of ignoring rules/ethics better than Sense 4 (general apathy) or Sense 1 (emotional numbness).

Target lemma: court
Target surface form: court
Context:
It's nothing new: The two justices have been attending Federalist Society events for years. And it's nothing that runs afoul of ethics rules. In fact, justices are exempt from the Code of Conduct that governs the actions of lower federal justices. If they were, they arguably fell under code's Canon 4C, which states, "A judge may attend fund-raising events of law-related and other organizations although the judge may not be a speaker, a guest of honor, or featured on the program of such an event." Nevertheless, the sheer proximity of Scalia and Thomas to two of the law firms in the case, as well as to a company with a massive financial interest, was enough to alarm ethics-in-government activists. "This stunning breach of ethics and indifference to the code belies claims by several justices that the <t>court</t> abides by the same rules that apply to all other federal judges," said Bob Edgar, the president of Common Cause. "The justices were wining and dining at a black-tie fundraiser with attorneys who have pending cases before the court."

The target word `court` appears in: "...claims by several justices that the <t>court</t> abides by the same rules that apply to all other federal judges," and "...attorneys who have pending cases before the court."
    *   Meaning: In this context, "the court" refers to the judicial body (likely the Supreme Court, given the mention of "justices" and "federal judges").

    *   Sense 4: "a tribunal that is presided over by a magistrate or by one or more judges who administer justice according to the laws" (synonyms: lawcourt, court of law, court of justice).
    *   Sense 6: "an assembly (including one or more judges) to conduct judicial business" (synonyms: tribunal, judicature).

    *   The context refers to the "court" as an entity that "abides by the same rules" and where attorneys have "pending cases before the court."
    *   Sense 4 focuses on the tribunal as a place/entity that administers justice.
    *   Sense 6 focuses on the assembly of judges conducting business.
    *   In legal contexts, "the Court" (especially capitalized or referring to the Supreme Court) usually refers to the judicial body/institution.
    *   Comparing Sense 4 and Sense 6: Sense 4 is the more general and common definition for a "court of law." Sense 6 is very similar but emphasizes the "assembly."
    *   Looking at WordNet's typical distinctions: `court%1:06:05` (Sense 4) is the standard "court of law." `court%1:14:00` (Sense 6) is often used for the collective body of judges.
    *   Wait, let's re-read: "claims by several justices that the court abides by the same rules..." and "pending cases before the court."
    *   Both 4 and 6 are very close. However, "court of law" (Sense 4) is the most encompassing term for the institution. Let's check if there's a nuance.
    *   Sense 4: "a tribunal that is presided over by a magistrate or by one or more judges who administer justice according to the laws"
    *   Sense 6: "an assembly (including one or more judges) to conduct judicial business"
    *   Usually, when referring to the Supreme Court as an institution, Sense 4 (lawcourt) is the primary sense. Sense 6 is slightly more specific to the gathering/assembly.

    *   Sense 4: `court%1:06:05`
    *   Sense 6: `court%1:14:00`
    *   In many WordNet-based datasets, the "institution" of the court is mapped to the "tribunal" sense.
    *   Let's look at the synonyms:
        *   Sense 4: lawcourt, court of law, court of justice.
        *   Sense 6: tribunal, judicature.
    *   "The court abides by the same rules" suggests the institution/body. "Pending cases before the court" also suggests the institution.
    *   Sense 4 is the most standard definition for a court of law.

    *   Sense 4: `court%1:06:05`
    *   Sense 6: `court%1:14:00`
    *   Actually, looking closer at WordNet's hierarchy, `court%1:06:05` is under `tribunal`, and `court%1:14:00` is also under `tribunal`.
    *   Wait, let me re-examine the provided senses.
    *   Sense 4: `court%1:06:05` - "a tribunal that is presided over by a magistrate or by one or more judges who administer justice according to the laws"
    *   Sense 6: `court%1:14:00` - "an assembly (including one or more judges) to conduct judicial business"
    *   In the context of "the court abides by the same rules," it refers to the judicial body. Sense 4 is the most common way to describe a court of law.

    *   Sense 4 is the most general and fitting for "the court" in a legal context.

    *   Let's look at the examples for Sense 3 again: "short haircuts were the regulation". This is a formal rule.

    *   Wait, let me look at the WordNet hierarchy if possible.
    *   Rule (3) -> regulation.
    *   Rule (12) -> prescript.
    *   In the context of "ethics rules" and "Code of Conduct", these are regulations.

    *   Sense 12: "prescribed guide for conduct or action" (synonym: prescript).
    *   "Ethics rules" are regulations. "Code of Conduct" is a set of regulations.
    *   Let's check if "regulation" (Sense 3) is a better fit than "prescript" (Sense 12).
    *   Actually, looking at the provided options, Sense 3's synonym "regulation" is a very strong match for "ethics rules".

    *   "The court abides by the same rules that apply to all other federal judges."
    *   These are the "ethics rules" mentioned earlier.
    *   "Regulation" (Sense 3) is a perfect synonym for "rule" in the context of official requirements.

    *   Sense 3: "a principle or condition that customarily governs behavior" (synonym: regulation).
    *   Sense 12: "prescribed guide for conduct or action" (synonym: prescript).
    *   Is a "Code of Conduct" a "regulation" or a "prescript"? Both. But "regulation" is the more common term for these types of rules.
    *   Let's look at the examples for Sense 3 again: "short haircuts were the regulation". This is an institutional rule.
    *   The "rules that apply to all other federal judges" are institutional rules.

    *   Sense 3: regulation.
    *   Sense 12: prescript.
    *   In many contexts, these are nearly identical. However, "regulation" is more frequently used for official, written rules of an organization or profession.

    *   Wait, let me re-read Sense 3: "a principle or condition that customarily governs behavior".
    *   And Sense 12: "prescribed guide for conduct or action".
    *   "Prescribed" implies it's officially laid down. "Customarily" might imply it's just how things are done.
    *   But the synonym for Sense 3 is "regulation". Regulations are prescribed.
    *   Let's look at the examples for Sense 3 again: "it was his rule to take a walk before breakfast" (customary) and "short haircuts were the regulation" (prescribed).
    *   The "ethics rules" are definitely prescribed.
    *   Let's look at Sense 12 again: "prescribed guide for conduct or action".
    *   Actually, "prescribed guide" sounds very much like a "Code of Conduct".
    *   Let me search for "WordNet rule regulation prescript".
    *   In some versions of WordNet:
        *   rule (regulation) = a principle or condition that customarily governs behavior.
        *   rule (prescript) = prescribed guide for conduct or action.
    *   This is a very fine distinction. Let's look at the context again. "ethics rules", "Code of Conduct", "Canon 4C". These are formal, written, prescribed rules.
    *   If I have to choose between "customarily governs" (3) and "prescribed guide" (12), "prescribed guide" (12) might actually be more accurate for a written Code of Conduct.
    *   *However*, the synonym for Sense 3 is "regulation". "Ethics regulations" is a very common phrase.
    *   Let's re-examine Sense 3's example: "short haircuts were the regulation". This is a prescribed rule.
    *   Let's re-examine Sense 12: "prescribed guide for conduct or action".
    *   Wait, "prescript" is often used for something that *must* be followed, while "regulation" is the rule itself.
    *   Let's look at the context again: "abides by the same rules".
    *   This is a very common usage of "rules" meaning "regulations".
    *   Let's try to see if "regulation" or "prescript" is a better fit for "ethics rules".
    *   "Ethics regulations" (common) vs "Ethics prescripts" (rare).
    *   Therefore, Sense 3 (regulation) is more likely.

    *   Sense 3: "a principle or condition that customarily governs behavior" (synonym: regulation).
    *   Sense 12: "prescribed guide for conduct or action" (synonym: prescript).
    *   Looking at the examples for Sense 3: "short haircuts were the regulation". This is an official rule.
    *   Looking at the context: "ethics rules", "Code of Conduct". These are official rules.
    *   Sense 3 seems the most fitting.

    *   "The justices were wining and dining at a black-tie fundraiser..."
    *   The context clearly refers to people (judges), specifically those on a high court (likely the US Supreme Court, given the mention of Scalia and Thomas).

    *   Sense 1: Department of Justice (Organization) - Incorrect.
    *   Sense 2: Quality of being fair (Abstract concept) - Incorrect.
    *   Sense 3: Public official/judge (Person) - Correct.
    *   Sense 4: Judgment/determination of rights (Process/Concept) - Incorrect.

    *   The target word "justices" refers to the judges of the court. Sense 3 defines a justice as a "public official authorized to decide questions brought before a court of justice" and lists "judge" and "jurist" as synonyms. This fits perfectly.

Target lemma: fundraiser
Target surface form: fundraiser
Context:
And it's nothing that runs afoul of ethics rules. In fact, justices are exempt from the Code of Conduct that governs the actions of lower federal justices. If they were, they arguably fell under code's Canon 4C, which states, "A judge may attend fund-raising events of law-related and other organizations although the judge may not be a speaker, a guest of honor, or featured on the program of such an event." Nevertheless, the sheer proximity of Scalia and Thomas to two of the law firms in the case, as well as to a company with a massive financial interest, was enough to alarm ethics-in-government activists. "This stunning breach of ethics and indifference to the code belies claims by several justices that the court abides by the same rules that apply to all other federal judges," said Bob Edgar, the president of Common Cause. "The justices were wining and dining at a black-tie <t>fundraiser</t> with attorneys who have pending cases before the court." Their appearance and assistance in fundraising for this event undercuts any claims of impartiality, and is unacceptable.
