Important Notice
The information provided on this website is for general informational and educational purposes only. It is not intended as, and should not be construed as, legal advice.
Nature of Our Content
John Adams Inquirer is an independent investigative journalism organization. Our articles, reports, and analysis represent our journalistic findings and opinions based on available evidence and research. Our content is intended to inform the public about matters of public interest related to the judicial system.
Not Legal Advice
Nothing on this website constitutes legal advice. If you have legal questions or concerns about a specific case or situation, you should consult with a qualified attorney licensed to practice in your jurisdiction. We are journalists, not lawyers, and our analysis should not be relied upon as a substitute for professional legal counsel.
Accuracy and Verification
We make every effort to ensure the accuracy of our reporting. Our investigative process includes document analysis, source verification, and fact-checking. However, we cannot guarantee that all information is complete, accurate, or current. Court records, judicial decisions, and related information may change over time.
Opinions and Analysis
Our assessments of judicial bias, case analysis, and judge profiles represent our editorial opinions based on documented evidence. These opinions are protected speech under the First Amendment. Reasonable people may disagree with our conclusions, and we welcome substantive responses from subjects of our reporting.
Fair Comment
Our criticism of judicial conduct and court decisions constitutes fair comment on matters of public concern. Judges are public officials whose conduct in office is subject to public scrutiny and criticism. Our reporting aims to promote transparency and accountability in the judicial system.
Presumption of Innocence
References to ongoing cases or allegations should not be construed as determinations of guilt or liability. All individuals are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Our reporting on pending matters reflects allegations and available evidence, not final adjudications.
