### German BERT for Legal NER

#### Use:

```python
from transformers import pipeline
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForTokenClassification

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("PaDaS-Lab/gbert-legal-ner", use_auth_token="AUTH_TOKEN")
model = AutoModelForTokenClassification.from_pretrained("PaDaS-Lab/gbert-legal-ner", use_auth_token="AUTH_TOKEN")

ner = pipeline("ner", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer)
example = "1. Das Bundesarbeitsgericht ist gemäß § 9 Abs. 2 Satz 2 ArbGG iVm. § 201 Abs. 1 Satz 2 GVG für die beabsichtigte Klage gegen den Bund zuständig ."

results = ner(example)
print(results)
