Bootstrap tabs not loading jQuery & Ajax

I have a tab pane using Bootstrap that I am attempting to load external pages into using Ajax via a jQuery script.

The ajax script is loading the pages' contents, however, the panes are not switching properly. They will load when I click on them, but they just "stick around," with the 2nd one stacking below the 1st pane when I click on it.

Here is the HTML (note, I am using Django, so the hrefs are Django lookups)

<div class="container-fluid">
    <div id="tabs">
        <ul class="nav nav-tabs" id="caseTab">
            <li class="active">
                <a data-url="{% url 'person_case_list' person.id %}" href="#case_list">Case List</a>
            </li>
            <li>
                <a data-url="{% url 'pledge_list' person.id %}" href="#pledge_list">Pledge List</a>
            </li>
        </ul>
        <div class="tab-content">

            <div class="tab-pane active" id="case_list">

            </div>

            <div class="tab-pane active" id="pledge_list">

            </div>

        </div>
    </div>
</div>

The javascript is:

<script>
$('#caseTab a').click(function (e) {
    var url = $(this).attr("data-url");
    console.log(url);

    if(typeof url !== "undefined") {
        var pane = $(this), href = this.hash;
        $(href).load(url, function(result){
            pane.tab('show');
            if (window.jQuery){
                alert("Doing Number 1: jQuery working");
            } else {
                alert("Doing Number 1: jQuerty NOT working");
            }
        });
    } else {
        $(this).tab('show');
        if (window.jQuery){
            alert("Doing number 2: jQuery Working");
        } else {
            alert("Doing number 2: jQuery NOT working");
        }
    }
});

</script>

The log "Doing number 1: jQuery Working" only fires when I click on tab 1 (case_list), but not every time. It will occasionally fire for tab 2 (pledge_list), but not usually.

The console is also logging the following error:

Uncaught TypeError: $(...).tab is not a function

This error appears to only fire for tab 2 (pledge_list), so far as I can tell. My console.log messages don't fire when this Uncaught TypeError fires.

Why does my .click function only catch sometimes? Why is $(this). not passing through properly?

Instead of Bootstrap, might jQuery UI's tabs() be of help, even with external page loads? 

$(function() {
  $("#tabs").tabs();
});

there is no functions tab in jQuery: try this example put only your url in data-url:

<div class="container-fluid">
    <ul class="nav nav-tabs" id="caseTab">
        <li class="case_list" data-url="put your Url"><a href="#">Case List</a></li>
        <li class="case_list" data-url="put your Url"><a href="#">Pledge List</a></li>
    </ul>
    <div class="tab-content">
        <div id="case_list">xx</div>
    </div>
</div>
<script>
$('.case_list').click(function(){
    var url = $(this).data("url");
    $('#case_list').load(url);  
    $(this).addClass('active').siblings().removeClass('active');
});
</script>
