challengeable
Can be questioned
Challengeable describes something that can be questioned, disputed, or contested.
A challengeable assumption invites scrutiny; a challengeable ruling may be appealed.
The word appears most often in legal and administrative contexts: The decision is challengeable within thirty days.
It implies vulnerability to opposition rather than certainty of defeat.
