Editorial standards

This site reports on active litigation, which means accuracy is not optional. These are the rules every page follows.

Sourced or absent

Every named lawsuit, ruling, date, and figure traces to a court record, a government publication, a press release describing a filed action, or reporting by a named news outlet. Each lawsuit article lists its sources at the bottom. If we cannot source a claim, it does not appear.

A complaint is not a lawsuit

Some of the most widely shared data center stories involve no litigation at all. We label those plainly, disputes, enforcement actions, or political reversals, and never imply a suit exists where none was filed. Case statuses (pending, settled, dismissed, regulatory) are stated on every tracker article and updated as cases move.

Dated and maintained

Every article carries its last-reviewed date. Pending cases change; when we learn a status changed, we update the page rather than leaving stale claims standing.

Information, not advice

We write general legal information in plain English and cite what courts and agencies have actually done. We do not give legal advice, predict outcomes, promise compensation, or evaluate any reader's claim. Statements about deadlines use honest ranges because they vary by state, and every page tells readers the thing that is universally true: talk to a licensed attorney early.

Advertising, disclosed

This is a commercial site funded by participating law firms, and we say so everywhere it matters, not just in fine print. The full disclosure is on the advertising disclosure page. The editorial rule that matters: our funding never buys a fact. What the record shows is what we publish.
