This project has been designed to analyze the Nature of Suits vs. Length of Suits vs. Dispositions of cases. This is to see the correlation between the 3 subjects and how they affect each other in different ways.
This venture in the world of data analytics has yielded some very thought-provoking results. The three pieces of data we looked at to form our report were Length of Suit, Natures of suit, and Dispositions. These three components used in making this data formed a very intriguing conclusion. When looking at the data provided by the graphs it’s clear to see that the different depositions yield many different results depending on time in trial and by what type of case it is. The 3 dispositions that have cases that take the most time are Motion before Trial, Settled, and Statistical Closing. Within Motion, before Trial, the cases that took the longest are Civil Right Job cases taking over 400 days to close. Moving to Settled, Personal Injury – Product Liability is the cases that take the most time with almost 500 days to close the cases. Now the last one is Statistical Closing and there is only one case that falls in there. Securities, Commodities, Exchange cases take well into the 600-day mark for those cases to close. This information should hopefully let you see the amount of time different cases spend in the courtroom and also seeing how they ended up.
