Retraction and Correction

The Vox Populi Law Review recognizes the substantial effort invested by authors and reflects this through rigorous peer-review. However, articles may require correction or retraction for scientific, ethical, or legal reasons to preserve the integrity of the scholarly record.

This policy ensures transparency, accountability, and consistency in post-publication practices while safeguarding the journal’s electronic archives.

Retraction occurs if the validity or ethical standing is fundamentally compromised, such as:

• Unreliable findings due to misconduct (fabrication, falsification) or critical errors.
• Redundant/duplicate publication without justification.
• Serious ethical violations (plagiarism, inappropriate authorship).

Following COPE Guidelines, a retraction notice will be published online and linked to the original article.

Issued when an article remains reliable but contains errors:

• Publisher Correction (Erratum): Production/publication process errors.
• Author Correction (Corrigendum): Significant author-made errors affecting interpretation.
• Addendum: Additional information complementing the original article.
