Summary
Article VI, section 6 of the California Constitution requires the Judicial Council to survey the condition and business of the California Courts; the annual Court Statistics Report fulfills that mandate. Office of Court Research staff will present an overview of the 2016 Court Statistics Report and discuss data trends in the California courts. Data from the court statistics report is used in various ways, including in the workload models that are used to inform the executive branch and the Legislature of the need for new judgeships and to identify branch funding need through the Resource Assessment Study (RAS) and Workload-based Allocation and Funding Model (WAFM).
