How these rates are computed

Guideline-compliance rates use the reconstructed effective sentence: a fully-suspended sentence counts as 0 months (below the guideline range), never as a missing value. This matches the methodology of the full CaseParity report and prevents overstating the share of sentences at or above the guideline range. Rates are computed only over records with a guideline range on file.

This page groups records by the exact code section as recorded, including subsection variants. A purchased report analyzes at the base-section level, so its cohort scope can differ slightly from this page.

Effective sentence = active time to serve, reconstructed (a fully-suspended sentence counts as 0 months). Half of records fall inside the IQR range. Plea rate = share of records with a plea agreement.

What this page does not tell you

It does not tell you why a sentence fell above or below the range: plea posture, offense specifics and criminal history all move it, and none are in the aggregate record.
