This doesn't seem to get me anywhere.  For cite '9.125.07(4A)(3)'
I got this:
 
select ts_debug('9-125-07-4A-3');
                            ts_debug
----------------------------------------------------------------
 (uint,"Unsigned integer",9,{simple},simple,{9})
 (int,"Signed integer",-125,{simple},simple,{-125})
 (int,"Signed integer",-07,{simple},simple,{-07})
 (int,"Signed integer",-4,{simple},simple,{-4})
 (asciiword,"Word, all ASCII",A,{english_stem},english_stem,{})
 (int,"Signed integer",-3,{simple},simple,{-3})
(6 rows)
 
Would there be a reasonable generalized way to pick something like
this out of a body of text using dictionaries and treat it as a
statute cite?
