Federal Justice Statistics Program: Arrests and Bookings for Federal Offenses, 1995 [United States]

The data contain records of arrests and bookings for federal offenses in the United States during fiscal year 1995. The data were constructed from the United States Marshals Service (USMS) Prisoner Tracking System database. Records include arrests made by federal law enforcement agencies (including the USMS), state and local agencies, and self-surrenders. Offenders arrested for federal offenses are transferred to the custody of the USMS for processing, transportation, and detention. The Prisoner Tracking System contains data on all offenders within the custody of the USMS. The data file contains variables from the original USMS files as well as additional analysis variables, or "SAF" variables, that denote subsets of the data. These SAF variables are related to statistics reported in the Compendium of Federal Justice Statistics, Tables 1.1-1.3. Variables containing identifying information (e.g., name, Social Security Number) were replaced with blanks, and the day portions of date fields were also sanitized in order to protect the identities of individuals. These data are part of a series designed by the Urban Institute (Washington, DC) and the Bureau of Justice Statistics. Data and documentation were prepared by the Urban Institute.
Federal Justice Statistics Program: Criminal Appeals Cases in Courts of Appeals -- Terminated, 2004 [United States]

An appeal can be filed by the government or the offender, and the appellant can appeal the sentence, the verdict, or both sentence and verdict. Appeals may be terminated on the merits or on procedural grounds. Of those that are terminated on the merits, the district court ruling may be affirmed, reversed, remanded to criminal court, or dismissed. The data file contains variables from the original AOUSC files as well as additional analysis variables, or "SAF" variables, that denote subsets of the data. These SAF variables are related to statistics reported in the Compendium of Federal Justice Statistics, Tables 6.1-6.5.

Deaths in Custody Reporting Program: State Prisons 2001 - 2009

The Deaths in Custody Reporting Program (DCRP) is an annual data collection
conducted by the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS). The DCRP began in 2000
under the Death in Custody Reporting Act of 2000 (P.L. 106-297). It is the
only national statistical collection that obtains detailed information
about deaths in adult correctional facilities. The DCRP collects data on
persons dying in state prisons, local jails and in the process of
arrest. Each collection is a separate subcollection, but each is under the
umbrella of the DCRP collection. This deals with the prison subcollection,
which has a prison death file.
The prison portion of the Deaths in Custody Reporting Program began in 2001
after the passage of the Deaths in Custody Reporting Act of 2000 in October
of 2000. The prison component of the DCRP collects data on inmate deaths
occurring in the 50 state departments of corrections while inmates are in
the physical custody of prison officials.
Civil Justice Survey of Trials on Appeal, 2005

The Bureau of Justice Statistics' (BJS) Civil Justice Survey
of Trials on Appeal (CJSTA) was based on 26,950 general
civil (i.e., tort, contract, and real property) cases that were
disposed by bench or jury trial in 156 counties participating
in the 2005 Civil Justice Survey of State Courts (ICPSR 23862).
Subsequently, 3,970 of those cases were appealed to 84
appellate courts in 35 states.
This data collection examines civil bench and jury trials
concluded in state trial courts in 2005 that were appealed
to an intermediate appellate court or court of last resort.
It is the first report based on data collected in the Bureau
of Justice Statistics' (BJS) Civil Justice Survey of Trials on
Appeal (CJSTA). The CJSTA included information from
court records on civil trials concluded in 2005 and tracked
the subsequent appeals from 2005 through March 2010.
Information collected included the types of civil cases
appealed, appeals dismissed or withdrawn before being
decided on the merits, and appeals resulting in the trial
court decision being reversed or affirmed. The time from the
filing of an appeal to final appellate court disposition was
also measured.
Civil Justice Survey of State Courts, 2005 

The Civil Justice Survey of State Courts (CJSSC), 2005 is a systematic examination of general civil (that is, tort, contract, and real property) cases disposed of by bench or jury trial in a national sample of state courts of general jurisdiction in 2005. This study expands on the 1992, 1996, and 2001 CJSSC by collecting a nationally representative sample of bench and jury trials concluded in 156 urban, suburban, and rural counties. Prior iterations of the CJSSC focused on general civil cases concluded by bench or jury trial in a sample of the nation's 75 most populous counties. The 2005 CJSSC was designed and carried out by the National Center for State Courts. Westat designed the national sampling framework for this survey.
The data collection produced two datasets. The first contains information on general civil (tort, contract, and real property) cases disposed of by bench or jury trial in a national sample of counties in 2005. Detailed case level information was obtained on these trials, including types of civil cases litigated at trial, characteristics of litigants involved in trials, who wins in trials, compensatory award amounts, punitive damages, case processing times, and post-trial litigation. The other data file contains aggregate information on the number of general civil trial and nontrial dispositions that occurred in 2005 in CJSCC counties that had the capacity to provide these data.
This is the fourth in a series of data collections begun in 1992 [CIVIL JUSTICE SURVEY OF STATE COURTS, 1992 (ICPSR 6587), CIVIL JUSTICE SURVEY OF STATE COURTS, 1996 (ICPSR 2883), and CIVIL JUSTICE SURVEY OF STATE COURTS, 2001 (ICPSR 3957)].
Civil Justice Survey of State Courts, 2001

This data collection examined general civil cases (torts,
contracts, and real property) disposed of by bench or jury trial in
the nation's 75 most populous counties in 2001. Information reported
includes the type of case, types of plaintiffs and defendants, trial
winners, amount of total damages awarded, amount of punitive damages
awarded, and case processing time. This is the third in a series of
data collections begun in 1992:  CIVIL JUSTICE SURVEY OF STATE COURTS,
1992 (ICPSR 6587), and CIVIL JUSTICE SURVEY OF STATE
COURTS, 1996 (ICPSR 2883).
Civil Justice Survey of State Courts, 1996

In 1996, the Bureau of Justice Statistics awarded a grant
to the National Center for State Courts to gather detailed information
on tort, contract, and real property rights trial cases in 45
jurisdictions chosen to represent the 75 most populous counties in the
nation. The result is this survey, which is a systematic examination
of civil trial cases disposed in state general jurisdiction
courts. The study expands the 1992 civil jury study, CIVIL JUSTICE
SURVEY OF STATE COURTS, 1992 (ICPSR 6587), by
specifically sampling bench and jury trial cases. Information gathered
includes the type of case, the presence of legal representation, the
type of litigation, the amount of compensatory damages awarded, the
amount of punitive damages awarded, and case processing time.
Civil Justice Survey of State Courts, 1992

This survey is the first broad-based, systematic
examination of the nature of civil litigation in state general
jurisdiction trial courts. Data collection was carried out by the
National Center for State Courts with assistance from the National
Association of Criminal Justice Planners and the United States Bureau
of the Census. The data collection produced two datasets. Part 1,
Tort, Contract, and Real Property Rights Data, is a merged sample of
approximately 30,000 tort, contract, and real property rights cases
disposed during the 12-month period ending June 30, 1992. Part 2,
Civil Jury Cases Data, is a sample of about 6,500 jury trial cases
disposed over the same time period. Data collected include information
about litigants, case type, disposition type, processing time, case
outcome, and award amounts for civil jury cases.
Census of Medical Examiners' and Coroners' Offices, 2004

The Census of Medical Examiners' and Coroners' Offices
(MECO) is a compilation of data on the practices of these offices,
which are responsible for medical-legal death investigations. The data
cover information such as the prevalence of unidentified human remains
on record in medical examiners' and coroners' offices across the
country, record-keeping practices, and final disposition practices
such as burial, cremation, or other means. In addition, data were
gathered on FTE employees, contractors, and annual budgets.

The data contain records of defendants in criminal cases filed in United States District Court during fiscal year 1998. The data were constructed from the Administrative Office of the United States District Courts' (AOUSC) criminal file. Defendants in criminal cases may be either individuals or corporations. There is one record for each defendant in each case filed. Included in the records are data from court proceedings and offense codes for up to five offenses charged at the time the case was filed. (The most serious charge at termination may differ from the most serious charge at case filing, due to plea bargaining or action of the judge or jury.) In a case with multiple charges against the defendant, a "most serious" offense charge is determined by a hierarchy of offenses based on statutory maximum penalties associated with the charges. The data file contains variables from the original AOUSC files as well as additional analysis variables, or "SAF variables," that denote subsets of the data.
