FL Sentencing Comparables

Before the plea conversation, see how defendants charged with the same FCIC charge category were actually disposed in your county, the incarceration rate, the median confinement term where custody was imposed, and the adjudication-withheld and pre-trial-diversion share, set against the Florida statewide distribution built from 3,937,598 studied charge dispositions across 66 counties and all 20 judicial circuits. Every cell carries its charge count (n); cells under 10 charges are suppressed rather than reported, and there is no judge dimension because the source data contains none.

“The goal of CJDT initiative is to increase public visibility of criminal justice processes throughout the state and to provide policymakers with the information they need to make informed policy decisions.”

The dataset behind the brief · source-checkable

Before you buy, see the data the numbers come from.

Every figure in the brief is computed from the Florida clerk-of-court sentencing records the state publishes, not an estimate or a national proxy. Each row is scoped to your county and charge category, with its denominator shown, and traces back to the source file below.

What the other side walks in with

The State already knows what your charge category typically draws in your county; it prosecutes there every week.

What this brief gives the defense

The same county-level sentencing distribution, source-cited and denominator-labeled, so your position is anchored to the record rather than to a guess.

Verify the source

Aggregate public-record data only. No judge is named or rated, and the report is a distribution of what has happened in comparable cases, not a prediction of your sentence.

Every figure traces to the public record above. Not internet research. Each source carries a URL you can open and confirm; where a source excludes part of the picture, that exclusion is named rather than smoothed over.

What the brief covers

The figure that decides whether to take the plea, does this county actually incarcerate on this charge, or withhold adjudication, sits in 4.27M rows of FDLE clerk-of-court data no solo practitioner has time to aggregate per matter.
Each county-and-charge cell shows the disposition mix, incarceration, adjudication withheld, diversion, with the charge count behind every percentage; cells under 10 charges are labeled suppressed, not smoothed.
No judge-level claim is made or implied, the CJDT source has no judge field, so the brief reports county and judicial-circuit aggregates only and says so on its face.
