Service boundary
Automation prepares. A qualified human releases.
CaliforniaSb253Ledger is an operational documentation and processing service operated by Your Deputy, Obuke LLC. It is not a law firm and does not provide legal, tax, medical, financial, or other licensed professional advice. Consumer and personal debt matters are not accepted. The client retains its licensed professionals and decision authority. Automation may organize and check records, but a qualified human must review and release every client deliverable.
- Unsupported facts remain unresolved, never inferred into a client deliverable.
- Jurisdiction-specific or licensed questions are routed to the client's professional.
- Every correction retains the source, reviewer, version, and reason for change.
Questions
Know the limits before intake.
Is this legal or professional advice?
No. This is bounded operational documentation and processing support. Licensed judgment remains with the client and its professionals.
Does automation make the final decision?
No. It can organize records, run declared checks, and prepare an exception queue. A qualified human reviews and releases every deliverable.
Is a client portal or CRM already active?
This public site does not claim an active portal integration. Portal access is provisioned only after the relevant backend is configured and independently verified.
What happens when evidence conflicts?
The item is placed in an exception state with its sources and owner. It is not silently resolved or presented as verified.
