GAVEL

Briefs and filings
with receipts.

GAVEL checks every legal citation against the source of record and refuses to vouch for one it can’t confirm. Verdicts: VERIFIED, MISCITED, UNVERIFIED. The live check is the tool, not this page.

verdict UNVERIFIED

Illustration of the verdict taxonomy. This mockup does not run a check. The never false-VERIFIED rule is load-bearing โ€” GAVEL refuses honestly or it doesn’t ship.

Verdict taxonomy

  • VERIFIEDcitation matches source of recordconfirmed
  • MISCITEDcitation exists but does not support the claim
  • UNVERIFIEDcannot confirm against source โ€” refused honestly

Law’s turn. Every citation checked, every gap named. No vouching without proof.

At the bench

The rule

GAVEL will not stamp VERIFIED on a citation it cannot confirm. UNVERIFIED is honest output โ€” not a failure mode we hide.
