The first section of data contains information on caseloads for every court in Indiana, including data on the number and type of cases pending at the beginning and end of 2003, new cases filed, cases transferred and venued, and the number and type of cases disposed by each court. The second section of data contains information about the method of case disposition in all courts in Indiana, including data concerning jury trials, bench trials, cases dismissed, and cases venued and transferred out. The third section of data offers information about other judicial activities in Indiana, such as pro se litigation, death penalty cases, life without parole cases, cases held under advisement, and pauper counsel appointments. This is volume II in a three volume series.
