“It’s a major question because under Arizona law, the Department is allowed to put someone’s name on the registry based simply on “probable cause”—a phrase that’s basically synonymous with suspicion. That’s far below the “reasonable doubt” rule that criminal courts use—and it’s even less than the “preponderance of evidence” standard uses in civil cases. The “probable cause” standard is what courts use to issue search warrants, because they merely suspect someone committed a crime. But in Arizona, you can have your name placed on a state-run “do not hire” list for twenty-five years based on mere suspicion.” – The Goldwater Institute, August 24, 2022
