GARPedia presents this committed report and does not recompute it.

Source record

United States v. Heppner, document 27 was filed on 2026-02-17. This public proofcase pins the source PDF digest and the public docket reference.

Initial governed state

The court ruled that Heppner's AI Documents were protected by neither attorney-client privilege nor the work product doctrine.1

The court concluded that Claude was not an attorney and treated that fact as sufficient to defeat Heppner's attorney-client privilege claim.2

Named-condition reopening and revised state

The candidate candidate:heppner:work-product-behest reopened when new_evidence_admitted arrived. the supplemental public capture admitted the candidate's pinned page 9 anchor.

The work-product ruling rested in part on the AI Documents not being prepared by or at the behest of counsel and not reflecting counsel's strategy.3

Verification and scope boundary

This record was packet-time-bound by Amnesiac and independently recomputed by ARCS Verify. GARPedia presents the resulting public artifacts.4

Structural verification does not establish historical authenticity, signature validity, or an unforgeable publication history.

Amendment log

Reader-facing narration of every edition after the first. Narration is required for editions after the first because the reader has a prior state to compare against; the first edition is always present but is not narrated.

  1. 2026-07-12T00:00:00ZHEPPNER-LIFECYCLE-EDITION-INITIAL

    Edition 1

    First edition; no prior state to compare against.

  2. 2026-07-12T00:00:00ZHEPPNER-LIFECYCLE-EDITION-REVISED

    Edition 2substantive amendmentcurrent

    A named new-evidence trigger reopened one reconsiderable refusal and produced a revised governed state.

Audit timeline

Governed events that produced the current state of the record. Oldest first. GARPedia renders the chain; it does not write to it. Adjudication, review approval, and publication approval happen in the operator surface (the GARP Workbench), not here.

  1. 2026-07-12T00:00:00Z HEPPNER-LIFECYCLE-EVENT-CANDIDATES

    candidate createdactor: Amnesiac

    Four deterministic candidate claims were extracted from the committed public source capture.

  2. 2026-07-12T00:00:00Z HEPPNER-LIFECYCLE-EVENT-INITIAL

    edition releasedactor: Amnesiac

    Two claims were admitted, one refusal remained reconsiderable, and one overbroad claim entered final negative space.

  3. 2026-07-12T00:00:00Z HEPPNER-LIFECYCLE-EVENT-REOPENED

    revisedactor: Amnesiac

    New evidence admitted under the named trigger and the work-product candidate entered the revised governed state.

  4. 2026-07-12T00:00:00Z HEPPNER-LIFECYCLE-EVENT-VERIFIED

    exportedactor: ARCS Verify

    Initial and revised artifact chains were independently recomputed as structural verification reports.

Cross-artifact traversal

Fixture-backed links across the rendered public artifacts. This panel is read-only and does not imply a live graph, search index, backend lookup, or verification action. Profile posture: cross-artifact traversal links shown.

Method

Method transparency for this rendered record. The panel surfaces the rules and posture under which the record was rendered, in plain view, alongside the audit chain that produced its current state.

Profile admission boundary

profilePublic Legal Record (legal_file)

Renderer authority requires a public source digest, committed Amnesiac governed artifacts, separately owned ARCS Verify reports, and a clean public-safety gate.

Public source and verification report links only.

GARPedia does not run search or retrieval. The fields above are render-time metadata only; they do not configure any indexer.

Control discharge

  • Amnesiac owns governed-state production.
  • ARCS Verify owns structural recomputation.
  • GARPedia presents committed public artifacts and performs no verification.

GARPedia does not host operator controls. Mutation, review approval, publication approval, dispute adjudication, and other governed actions live in the GARP Workbench, not on this surface.
