  • DYK checklist template
General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.
Overall: Info for hook is contained in two consecutive sentences followed by a cite, but why niggle? Editor could just as easily use a semi-colon to join the sentences and fulfill the letter of the core requirement, so why be silly about this? This article is GTG. I might add that an article about the judiciary that cogently and pithily explains importance of legal decisions in layman's terms is a very nice addition to our cathedral of knowledge here.Georgejdorner (talk) 23:16, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
