How 3,715 Palm Beach County Criminal mischief cases were sentenced

State prison2.4%89 cases
County jail47%1,746 cases
Adjudication withheld7.4%275 cases
Diversion25.4%944 cases
Sentence not recorded in the public data17.8%661 cases

The last row is not an error and it is not hidden. In 661 of these cases the Clerk of Courts record we received did not carry a sentencing category we could classify. Probation and dismissal are two dispositions that can fall into it: Florida’s published extract does not always separate them from other unclassified outcomes.

Adjudication withheld means the court did not enter a conviction. It is a sentencing outcome recorded in the public data; it is not the same as a dismissal.

What this page does not tell you

This free page does not publish sentence length; the full report does.

It does not tell you the individual facts of any one case — charge specifics, plea posture, and criminal history all affect a real sentence and none of them are in this aggregate.

What Fla. Stat. § 806.13 covers

A single statute subsection can carry more than one degree under Florida law, so we do not assert one severity for Fla. Stat. § 806.13 as a whole. If this statute in fact spans more than one degree, the rates above may pool cases across degrees.

How this was measured

Source: Florida Clerk of Courts records published under Fla. Stat. § 900.05, anonymized, covering cases resolved between 2018 and 2026. Primary charges only — a case is counted once, under the charge the clerk recorded as primary.

Denominator: all 3,715 resolved Palm Beach County cases with this primary charge. Percentages are shares of that number, not of convictions only.

Rate floor: we publish a percentage only where a county has at least 10 recorded cases for the charge. Below that we still publish the case count — we just do not turn it into a rate, because a percentage built on a handful of cases misleads.

The four named categories above cover 82.2% of these cases. We show the remaining 17.8% as its own row rather than leaving you to subtract. Coverage varies by charge and county across the site, and it is printed on every page.

CaseParity takes no position on sentencing policy. We do not advocate for longer sentences or shorter ones. We do not favor any party, any side, or any outcome. We publish the record.

Past sentencing patterns do not predict future outcomes in any individual case. CaseParity does not recommend litigation strategy, plea decisions, sentencing positions, or appellate arguments. Sentencing outcomes reflect many factors not captured in structured public records.
