A tree starts with labels
The example statute tree uses title label 28, section label 1332, and subsection label a as source data.
title=28,section=1332
Parent-child links govern the path
The author supplies labels and children. The compiled tree has 3 nodes, and the target subsection is at depth 2.
nodes=3,depth=2
Path and anchor are recomputed
The path 28/1332/a and its anchor are recomputed from the tree, not typed as trusted results.
path=28/1332/a
Diagram note
The diagram shows a structural path. It does not say what the statute means for any party.
