Motion Success Report
Most defendants never learn which motions actually get granted in cases like theirs. Their attorney files what they always file, and the defendant has no way to ask — was that the strongest move? Did the right motion get skipped? The data exists in the public record. Now you can read it.
Which Motions Actually Get Granted For Your Charge
Top-10 motion types for your charge type with grant rates. Circuit baseline column when data is available. Optional judge-specific patterns when you supply a name. Verified granted-motion citations. Compiled from indexed criminal court records.
Motion grant rates are aggregate, not predictions. Use them to ask sharper questions of your attorney.

Generated on demand from indexed court records within 60 seconds.
Verified public sources: CourtListener motion records × charge_type_top_authorities citation index
What You Get
- Top 10 motion types for your charge — filed counts, granted counts, and grant rates
- Circuit baseline column — how the same motion type performs in your federal circuit
- Optional judge-specific section — supply a judge name and the report adds their motion-by-motion pattern when their record reaches a reporting threshold
- Top 10 granted-motion citations for your charge — each with a CourtListener URL you can verify yourself
- Methodology block — every percentage shows its denominator inline; no naked rates
- Limitations stated on every section — sparse cells disclose the gap rather than fabricating a number
- Aggregate frequencies only — never a prediction about a specific motion in a specific case
Sample Motion Data
| Metric | Value | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Motion to Suppress (DUI national baseline) | Granted 8.4% of 1,247 filed | motion_outcome_rates |
| Motion to Suppress (Circuit 5 baseline) | Granted 6.1% of 312 filed | motion_outcome_rates_by_circuit |
| Motion in Limine (Drug Possession) | Granted 41.2% of 422 filed | motion_outcome_rates |
| Top granted-motion citation | Linked to CourtListener | charge_type_top_authorities |
Sample values illustrate the cell shape — your report contains actual counts and rates for your charge type, your circuit, and the optional judge name you provide.
Why You Can Trust This Data
Every percentage in the report shows its denominator inline. No naked grant rates. Every granted-motion citation is linked to a CourtListener URL you can verify yourself. When a section has sparse data, the report discloses the gap on the page rather than fabricating a number.
Motion outcome data is aggregated from indexed criminal docket records. Charge-type grant rates aggregate across the user-facing charge slug bridge. Circuit baselines aggregate per federal circuit. Judge-specific patterns require a reporting threshold; below threshold, that section is suppressed instead of estimated.
Frequently Asked Questions
Three sections built from indexed criminal court records: (1) top 10 motion types for your charge type, with filed counts, granted counts, and grant rates; (2) a circuit baseline column showing how the same motion type performs in your federal circuit, when circuit data is available; (3) the top 10 granted-motion citations for your charge type, each with a CourtListener URL. If you supply a judge name and that judge’s record reaches a reporting threshold, the report adds a judge-specific motion-pattern section.
Indexed criminal court motions from CourtListener, aggregated into motion_outcome_rates (national, by-charge), motion_outcome_rates_by_circuit (per federal circuit), and judge_motion_outcome_rates (judge-specific). Granted-motion citations are pulled from charge_type_top_authorities with a citation_authority_criminal fallback. Every cell is a count or a ratio of counts — nothing estimated, nothing fabricated.
