Where our facts come from

Every entry carries a date and a source. We prefer the primary record: the opinion, the order, the letter, the docket, the agency's own release. The document library goes a step further: we read each ruling, letter and petition in full before summarizing it, link the copy posted by the court or agency, and show the date we read it.

Right now 62 percent of our 773 dated citations link straight to a court record or a government agency. The rest cite established legal and industry press, usually because the document isn't public yet, and the weekly update replaces them as the originals turn up.

The records are rechecked every week, and every page shows when it was last checked. When a date or docket number can't be confirmed, we leave it out rather than estimate it. Our methodology page explains how we sort states and cases.

We are not affiliated with any exchange, broker, sportsbook, tribe, regulator or government body. We don't accept sponsorship from prediction markets, sportsbooks or any party to a case we track, and sponsors can't review or edit a record. Prediction Market Laws is published by AI Laws By State LLC.

How to cite us

Every page has a Cite this page button with Bluebook and APA formats. For a court ruling or letter, cite the original document; each document page gives a ready citation for it, plus one for our summary.
