unavailable pending verification

Criminal fraction = criminal dockets ÷ total dockets per judge, averaged across the district. Booker inflection is unavailable: historical departure averages do not establish a Booker effect, and source categories and record periods require verification. Aggregate frequencies only — not a prediction about any specific case.
