Sources and method
Every fact on a state page comes from a source that was opened on the date shown on that page.
Where the facts come from
- The statute or rule of the state, read on the state legislature's own site where it could be read.
- Where the state site blocks automated access or shows the text only by script, a public copy of the same statute is used. The page says so.
What is left out
A fact the source does not give is omitted rather than guessed. A state whose text could not be read and checked has no page.
This site summarizes what the text says. It is not legal advice and it is not the authority: the law in force decides.
