Every statute citation and source URL transcribed from the research tables in `research/batch1-northeast.md` through `batch4-west.md`, grouped by state. Entries marked **[HISTORICAL]** or **[SUPERSEDED]** were flagged as such in the research and must not be cited as current law. Entries marked "verify locally" had no confirmable official URL in the research session.
This is research, not legal advice. Eviction procedure is county- and court-specific; verify locally before serving or filing.
