Hamilton County Judges

However, some cases are appealed, and of those appealed, some of the cases are reversed. Over a three year period, 182,908 cases were handled by 38 Judges In the Common Pleas Court, Domestic Relations Court, and Municipal Court. Two of the Judges, Deliverance and Hogan, did not serve In the same court for the entire three year period.

The purpose of this report Is so that we can evaluate the performance of the edges.

Appeals are often the result of mistakes made by Judges, and we want to know which judges were doing a good job and which were making too many mistakes. In this report, I am going to describe the basic statistics for each of the three courts. I will also find and show the probability of cases being appealed and reversed in the three different courts, for each Judge, and finally I will show the probability of a reversal given that an appeal has been made for each Judge.

Below you’ll find the descriptive statistics for each of the individual courts including the minimum, maximum, range, mean, median, and standard deviation of each of the three courts in question.

The average number of appealed cases in the Municipal Court was about 24 cases, and the average number of cases that were reversed was 6 cases.

Next, I will find and discuss the probability of appeals and the probability of reversals in each of the three courts over the three year period. Court by the total number of cases disposed in that court. Then, by multiplying that number by 100, I know the percentage of cases appealed in that court. To find the arability of reversal, I divided the number of cases that were reversed in each court by the total number of cases appealed (since a case has to be appealed before it can be reversed). Then by multiplying that number by 100, I know the percentage of cases that were reversed in that court.

Below, I will include tables to show the probability of appeal and reversal in the courts using the methods that I described above. Common Pleas Court: Total Cases: Total Probability 0. 040095574 0. 112939841 Percentage 4. 009557401 1 1 .

2939841 1 The above table shows the probability of cases being appealed and reversed in he Common Pleas Courts. Out of 43,945 cases, 1,762 of them were appealed. By taking the total number of appealed cases and dividing that by the total number of cases disposed in the court, then I get the probability of appeal.

In this case, the probability of appeal is 0. 04009.

I multiplied that number by 100 to get the percentage. So, during this three year period, about 4% of cases were appealed. Out of 1,762 cases, 199 of them were reversed. By taking the total number of reversed cases and dividing that number by the total number of appealed cases, then I get the probability of reversal. In this court, the probability of reversal is 0. 11293.

I multiplied that number by 100 to get the percentage. So, about 1 1. 29% of appealed cases are reversed. Domestic Relations Court Probability 0. 03475524 0. 347552379 16.

03773585 the Domestic Relations Court. Out of 30,499 cases, 106 of them were appealed. By cases disposed in the court, then I get the probability of appeals. In this case, the probability of appeal is 0. 003475. I multiplied that number by 100 to get the percentage.

So, 0. 3475% of cases in the Domestic Relations Court were appealed. Out of the 106 appealed cases, 17 of them were reversed. By taking the total number of reversed cases and dividing that number by the total number of appealed cases, then I get the probability of reversal.

In this court the probability of reversal is 0. 1604.

By multiplying that number by 100, I got the percentage. So, 16. 04% of appealed cases where reversed. 94503 Probability 0. 004476048 0. 447604838 22.

73093939 The above table shows the probability of appeal and reversal of cases in the Municipal Court. Out of 94,503 total cases disposed, 423 of them were appealed. To find the probability of appeal, I took the total number of appeals, and divided that f appeal is 0. 004476.
