NowShout prioritises primary and authoritative material. For court reporting this normally means official judgments, orders, cause lists and court-hosted records. Secondary reporting may help locate a case or provide context, but it does not replace required official evidence.
Claims are mapped to source identifiers and, where available, page, paragraph or quoted support. A source must support the claim actually made; proximity to a related fact is not enough. Where sources conflict, the article should identify the conflict or withhold the claim until it can be resolved.
Anonymous or unverifiable material is not used to establish a court outcome. Search snippets, social posts and generated summaries are not treated as official evidence. Documents blocked by authentication or access controls are not bypassed.
Direct official-source links are provided when lawful and technically available. If a required primary source cannot be publicly accessed under policy, publication may be blocked or the limitation disclosed according to the editorial gate.
Sources are reviewed for recency and procedural relevance. A trial-level order does not establish the latest outcome when a later appeal exists. Corrections prompted by new official material follow the Corrections Policy.
