Per-Development Citation Format

Each development entry must follow:

  1. Bluebook citation (full)
  2. Facts (2–3 sentences) → Issue → Holding
  3. Practical implication (platform / creator / compliance perspective)

Checks

  • Bluebook format for all citations; mark uncertain citations [VERIFY]
  • Distinguish binding precedent from persuasive authority; state jurisdictional scope
  • Note whether agency guidance carries force of law vs. interpretive status
  • Present circuit splits neutrally; identify majority or trending view
  • Flag areas where law is actively unsettled or under appellate review
  • Include international developments only where they create US compliance obligations or influence US doctrine
