Good law
Every flagged citation to this case has been read, and none of them overrules, limits, or questions it. State v. Wilson is good law: all 109 flagged citations have been read, and no adverse treatment was confirmed. The opinions overwhelmingly applied Wilson's manifest-weight principles before overruling litigants' assignments of error; other treatment language concerned unrelated authorities.
More on how this was screened

Courts also expressly recognized that State v. Williams, which addressed the later Adam Walsh Act scheme, did not overrule Wilson's holding under the earlier Megan's Law regime.

Every treatment on this page is written from the citing opinion itself, with a verbatim quote, never copied from a commercial citator. A citation flagged by our screen but not shown here was read and found not to weaken this case.

1,198 later cases cite State v. Wilson; 109 of those citations sat close to treatment language and were flagged for reading, and all of them have been read. Citations that did not sit near treatment language were not flagged and were not read one by one, so a court that weakened this case without using any of that language would not appear here.

Relying on State v. Wilson?

This page shows what later courts did to it. Ask about your specific facts and see whether it still carries your argument, with citations you can check.

No reviewed court has overruled or limited this case.

Every one of the 109 flagged citations was read, and each turned out to be something other than adverse treatment: a routine application, a party's argument the court rejected, or the case itself discussing older law. That reading is the finding this page exists to report.
