2015 Reports on Federal Courts Caseload and AO Activities Released

Reports on the 2015 caseload of the federal courts and the activities of the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts were released today.

The 2015 Judicial Business of the United States Courts shows that caseloads in the courts of appeals, district, and bankruptcy courts decreased; the number increased for persons under post-conviction supervision and serving terms of supervised release.

A series of statistical tables detail federal cases filed by circuit, district, offense or nature of suit, commenced, terminated and pending, among other data reports. A multi-year comparison of judicial caseload indicators is included.

The Annual Report of the Director, also released today, highlights the 2015 activities and programs of the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts.
