Coverage

The public court record — named sources, four jurisdictions, no guesswork.

CaseParity publishes the public record of criminal case outcomes where the data exists in accessible form and where statutes permit. Coverage grows jurisdiction by jurisdiction; this page lists exactly what is live, what is rolling out, and what is confirmed next.

The U.S. Sentencing Commission (federal), Minnesota (MNCIS), and North Carolina (ADE) are confirmed as the next sources to come online. Texas expands county by county — Harris is the anchor county, with more to follow.

We publish where the data exists in accessible form and where statutes permit — and we’re transparent about where it doesn’t.


By jurisdiction

What each source provides.

● LiveStatewide

Florida

Florida is covered statewide, drawing on FDLE Computerized Criminal History / sentencing data together with Florida State Attorney scoresheet data (Criminal Punishment Code scoresheets). Records are anonymized at the source by statute — F.S. §900.05 and §943.6871 — and refreshed monthly. The judge is not identified in the Florida record.

Governing authority

Florida’s Criminal Justice Data Transparency Act requires this data to be collected and published: Fla. Stat. § 900.05 declares the intent to “promote criminal justice data transparency” (§ 900.05 ↗), and Fla. Stat. § 943.6871 directs a free, public, machine-readable database (§ 943.6871 ↗).

The law’s sponsors framed it as a transparency measure. Rep. Chris Sprowls: “The ability to look at qualitative information about our criminal justice system will not only bring transparency, it will guide our future decision making” (GovTech, 2018 ↗). Sen. Jeff Brandes described the aim as “the gold standard for data in the country” (Reason, 2018 ↗).

● LiveJudge identified

Cook County, Illinois

The Cook County State's Attorney (CCSAO) publishes its case data in the public domain. CaseParity organizes roughly 3.1M charge-related records across four CCSAO datasets, covering 2010 through December 30, 2024 as a frozen public dataset. The judge is identified in the Cook record, so judge-level analysis is available here.

AnonymizationCCSAO Public Domain release

Cook County data is the State’s Attorney felony-prosecution record (CCSAO). Misdemeanor reports are not available for Cook County. Florida supports both felony and misdemeanor charges.

Governing authority

Cook County’s courts established commercial access to bulk electronic court-record data by general administrative order. Chief Judge Timothy C. Evans: “the court is ready to move forward in an equitable and uniform manner to expand access to electronic court records … with the utmost respect to the public’s right to privacy” (General Administrative Order 2002-03 ↗). The records CaseParity organizes are the Cook County State’s Attorney’s open-data release, published in the public domain.

Harris County, Texas

Texas court data is published county by county — there is no single statewide feed. Harris County is the anchor county, with more to follow. Records reach back to 1990, and personally identifying fields are stripped on ingest. Roughly 2.2M+ records have been loaded so far.

Virginia

Virginia draws on Virginia Criminal Sentencing Commission (VCSC) sentencing data for fiscal years 2020 through 2024 — roughly 102,891 sentencing events, with about 290 fields per record. The detail per record is unusually deep; the judge is not identified in the source.

The record is public

Don’t see your state?

Criminal case outcomes are public records. Where a state has not yet made that record available in accessible, structured form, that is a question for its legislature — not a limit on the right of access. If you want to see your state covered, the most direct path is to contact your legislators and ask them to publish the record in an open, machine-readable form.

CaseParity organizes what is already public; it does not lobby on your behalf or advise you on any legal matter.


A note on gaps

Absence of coverage is a data-availability fact — not a judgment about a jurisdiction.

CaseParity is transparent about where data is and is not available. When a jurisdiction is not listed, it means its criminal case data is not yet available to us in accessible form, or that publishing it is not permitted under that jurisdiction’s statutes — or simply that we have not reached it yet. None of those is a statement about how a jurisdiction operates, the quality of its courts, or the outcomes within it. We publish what exists and where statutes permit, and we say plainly where they do not. As coverage grows, this page is updated to reflect exactly what is live.
