Abstract

Examines the reporting of case dispositions by State court prosecutors to State criminal history repositories. The report looks at the type of final disposition information reported, the method used to transmit, and the length of time required to provide a final disposition. It describes the impediments that many prosecutors encounter which inhibit providing case declinations and other final disposition information to the repository. This is a web only document.
