Why You Should Not Work Around a Dispute by Re-Running a Search
Updated on 31 March 2026

If information is under dispute, re-running the same search is not an acceptable shortcut around the review process.
Why this matters #
- It does not resolve the underlying dispute.
- It can create the false impression that repeated searching equals confirmation.
- It weakens the proper handling of challenged information.
- It may create unnecessary compliance and support problems.
Correct approach: Use the dispute and support path, not repeated re-searching, when accuracy is being challenged.
