Editorial Standards

How we work

Supreme Court Now is committed to accuracy, fairness, transparency, and plain-English explanations.

Accuracy

We strive to accurately summarize Supreme Court cases, decisions, and legal issues using publicly available court documents and reliable sources.

Plain English

Legal language is translated into everyday language so non-lawyers can understand what happened and why it matters.

Source Transparency

Whenever possible, we link directly to opinions, briefs, oral arguments, transcripts, and other primary sources.

Nonpartisanship

We do not advocate for political outcomes. We explain legal issues and rulings fairly and objectively.

Corrections

If an error is identified, we will review it and make corrections when warranted.

Independence

Supreme Court Now operates independently and is not affiliated with the Supreme Court of the United States or any government entity.
