The data presents a summary of judicial decisions made over a span of 13 years, from 2010 to 2022. It shows the number of unique judges, the average number of decisions per judge, the median number of decisions, and the maximum number of decisions made in each year. The number of judges has remained relatively stable over the years, ranging from 107 to 148. The average number of decisions per judge has seen some fluctuations, peaking at 4 and reaching a low of 2 in multiple years. The maximum number of decisions made by a single judge in a year also varied significantly, with a high of 93 in 2018 and a low of 12 in 2021.
Table 2: Judges publish an average of 2-3 decisions every year. This table overestimates judicial publication rates because it does not count the number of criminal court judges who did not publish any written decision in a given year.
