Gotcha risk — resolution-rule assessment

Show full assessmentShow less

The rules clearly specify what does and does not constitute release from custody, explicitly noting that house arrest, parole, or bond qualify for positive resolution, whereas prison transfers, medical visits in custody, or temporary court appearances do not. Resolution relies primarily on official government or corrections statements, though fallback to a consensus of credible reporting introduces minor discretion if official confirmation is delayed or absent. The deadline is fixed to a specific time zone without unusual early-resolution traps.

Resolution rules

This market will resolve to "Yes" if Nicolás Maduro is released from custody by the listed date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". If Nicolás Maduro is released but remains under house arrest, the market will still resolve to "Yes". If Nicolás Maduro is released on parole, bond, or any other condition that results in them leaving state custody, the market will resolve to "Yes". Transporting Nicolás Maduro to another location of custody (e.g., a different prison, court, or hospital within the correctional system) will not suffice to resolve this market to "Yes". Temporary outings from prison for purposes such as testifying in court or before Congress, while still under the custody of correctional authorities, will not count as a release. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from government authorities or corrections departments; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
