Cite Check Washington
Every citation shape resolves ONLY into Washington's own registered corpus families — a Florida, Texas, North Carolina, or Arizona cite never resolves as Washington law (the contamination guard is a release test). Existence and verbatim text are machine-verified against the hash-pinned corpus; whether an authority SUPPORTS your proposition remains the signer's judgment.

GR 14.1 — the unpublished-opinion doctrine
Unpublished opinions of the Court of Appeals have no precedential value and are not binding on any court — citation carries GR 14.1's conditions, and Cite Check flags any unpublished-opinion cite for the signer's judgment.
The stakes on the signature
CR 11's title covers SIGNING AND DRAFTING: the signature certifies grounding in fact and law; unsigned papers are stricken; violations invite sanctions including the other side's expenses — and RCW 4.84.185 adds frivolous-action fees on written findings. Read them verbatim: CR 11 · RCW 4.84.185.
