WeedPress publishes the primary documents behind its reporting — court filings, orders, transcripts, agency letters, rules and government reports — so readers can check our work and read the record for themselves. This library collects every document file WeedPress has uploaded and linked from a published article, grouped by case or source, with a link to the article that explains it.

About redactions. WeedPress redacts personal identifiers of private individuals, such as Social Security numbers, birth dates, home addresses, personal phone numbers and personal email addresses, and the names of minors before posting. Court documents are posted as filed or as received from the court, with only those redactions.
