Inventory Ledger Structure

Citation hierarchy — federal / state / local rows with citation, headline obligation, and status.

Open in Playground
Variant

Use when three or four parallel jurisdictions need to read at a glance: each row carries the jurisdiction label, the citation, the obligation summary, and an effective-date marker.

citationreferencecompliance

When to use

  • Three parallel jurisdictions. Federal / state / local — or any three peer regimes — that the room must hold side-by-side. The hue rotation cues which row is which without a legend.
  • Citation plus obligation plus status. Each row is a three-part record: the citation (mono chip), the headline obligation in prose, the status pill. Use when all three matter; for citation-only, reach for list-tabular.
  • Compliance briefings. Reach for statute-stack when the deck reads as a regulatory memo — counsel and operations need the same view of the same record at the same time.

When not to use

  • More than four rows. The three-column rail collapses past four jurisdictions. For longer registers move to lane (table form) or split across two statute-stack slides by topic.
  • Citation without obligation. Without the headline obligation sentence, the layout reads as a citation list. Use list-tabular spec when only the citation matters.
  • Mixed entry shapes. Every row needs the same three parts — citation, obligation, status. A row missing the status pill or with prose instead of a citation breaks the visual contract.

Variants

hierarchy — Authority pyramid

Stacks the rows vertically with descending row heights — Federal tallest, State mid, Local shortest. Use when the jurisdictions are nested in authority, not peers.

<!-- _class: statute-stack hierarchy -->

## Children's data — authority cascades downward.

- Federal
  - `15 U.S.C. §6501 · COPPA`
  - Verifiable parental consent for under-13 personal data.
  - `In effect since 2000`
- State
  - `Cal. Civ. Code §1798.120 · CCPA/CPRA`
  - Opt-in for selling or sharing under-16 data; opt-out for over-16.
  - `Enforced 2023`
- Local
  - `NYC Admin Code §22-1201`
  - Bias-audit obligation for AEDTs used in employment decisions.
  - `Effective 2023`

bands — Horizontal bands

Each jurisdiction becomes a full-width horizontal row with a label column on the left and the body inlined to the right. Use for compact compliance briefs where vertical real estate is tight.

preemption — Preemption cascade

Vertical stack with a downward arrow between each card. Use when the slide must show that the upper jurisdiction preempts or supersedes the one below.

<!-- _class: statute-stack preemption -->

## Federal preemption — how the cascade flows.

- Federal
  - `15 U.S.C. §6501 · COPPA`
  - Sets the floor for under-13 personal data collection.
  - `Preempts conflicting state rules`
- State
  - `Cal. Civ. Code §1798.120 · CCPA/CPRA`
  - Stricter opt-in regime on top of COPPA's baseline.
  - `Survives preemption`
- Local
  - `NYC Admin Code §22-1201`
  - Bias-audit obligation distinct from privacy preemption scope.
  - `Independent of preemption`

lane — Markdown table

Pivots to a markdown table — columns for jurisdiction, citation, obligation, status. Use for register-style briefings where the audience scans down each column.
