Read the full assessment

The market has a clear deadline of December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET and a straightforward overall condition. Participants should note that the phrase 'serves any time' could leave room for debate regarding whether brief pretrial detention or temporary holding following an arrest qualifies as serving time in jail versus serving a formal sentence. For resolution, official U.S. government records are the primary source, but the market also permits relying on a consensus of credible reporting if official records are not definitive or promptly available.
