Because cases in the courts of appeals are generally handled by panels of three judges, workload figures in these courts are shown per panel. District court workload statistics are divided by the number of authorized judgeship positions in each court to provide the workload per judgeship. The per panel and per judgeship figures virtually eliminate the influence of court size and allow comparison between courts of different sizes. The overall workload statistics for the courts cover filings, terminations, cases pending, and percent change in total filings for the current year. The number of judgeships or panels is indicated along with the number of vacant judgeship months. Actions per panel cover the appeals filed and the appeals terminated as well as the opinions per judgeship. Other data for the appellate courts address the percentage of cases reversed or denied, the median time from filing the complete record to disposition, and the number of sitting senior judges. All 12 circuit courts of appeals have been arranged in a ranked order with respect to the statistical indices of workload or performance found on the profile. Actions per judgeship in the district courts cover filings, pending cases, weighted filings, terminations, and trials completed. Data also cover the number and percentage of civil cases over 3 years-old, the number and percentage of triable defendants in pending criminal cases, juror usage index, and the percentage of jurors not serving. Information is included on the nature of the suits and offense categories. Comparative data show where an individual district court stands in relation to other district courts in the circuit and in the country.
