'''''Wikibooks''''' contains modulesbooks on many [[WikibooksSubject:Law bookshelf|legal topics]]; however, <u>'''no warranty whatsoever'''</u> is made that any of the modulesbooks are accurate. There is absolutely no assurance that any statement contained in an modulebook touching on legal matters is true, correct, or precise. Law varies from place to place and it evolves over time &#8212; sometimes quite quickly. '''''Even if''''' a statement made about the law is ''accurate'', it may only be accurate in the jurisdiction (''place'') of the person posting the information; as well, the law may have ''changed'', been ''modified'' or ''overturned'' by subsequent development since the entry was made on '''''Wikibooks'''''.
